It happens me often that I'm in game but not capable to do something because i receive @ emergency call and MUST go away! When I'm not responding on the captchas at that time, what are the results for me?

1. pop-up window -> if the person's online himself, why use a bot then? if the bot is logged in, the person cannot play in the client and vice versa.
2. imagedecoder -> cannot read merged letters/numbers in the captcha
3. human outsourcing -> how accurate are those really? they're often from a developing country in which english isn't their primary language. And these cost $. a huge deterrent for free bot-users.

Just a question, and it might be a silly question, but there was a claim that it was easy to beat a cheater's city.
If that is the case, and botting is supposedly there to "protect the investment", then why would one cheat, if it was so easy to beat them, but one wanted to protect one's investment?
I'm just a bit confused on that. Perhaps someone could clear that up?
There is something in this that can be used. We all know that botters make up probably a great portion of evony now days. Alot of them are big spenders im sure. But using this Captchas will most likely cause alot of the botters to quit. But not using may cause alot of non botters to quit. Separating The 2 is not a bad idea. Maybe make things cost a bit more on the non protected server for botters. And give some extra perks to the legit players. I have seen some other games use this strategy. That way the players who do spend alot and dont want to give up the game, im sure most botters just dont have the time to play the game for real its pretty demanding. Both sides can choose where to go and there can be warning on non protected servers "there maybe botters". Both sides can keep playing and be happy. Evony doesnt take a hit in the pocket either.

1) Players with bots get an advantage with farming and building their cities.
2) Ruins the competition towards the honest players. (Makes the playing field uneven)
3) If bots are allowed to keep being used it will completely ruin the pvp part of the game. More bots-Less action. Players need to spend some time in the game to competition to arise.
what if everyone can bot. then it will be fare for everyone. oh and there will be alot more pvp wars. just no time wasting farming. only having fun. imagine what a wonderfull game it will be for everyone LOL.
