way to go thantium evony's customer service at it's best sorry u don't have enough posts u can't mcomplain about us screwing with your game

gee could see my customer service job lasting long
but hey evony has an appauling customer service record so keep up the good work![]()
Excuse the grammar and spelling. never did really pass english in school
How long do you have to respond to the Captcha query? I play multiple accounts on several servers, sometimes get busy on a single server and may not touch base for awhile.
EVONY!!
I have never been a fan of botting from a gaming point of view I believe it ruins the game. I always asked myself why Evony never combated the botting appropriately.
I read alot of talk about approved bots? This is just stupid!
As a professional in the IT industry I admit if it was my game I would prevent botters!!
I would also improve the game mechs to accommodate more exciting game play....
Captcha can be done really well and not a high level of disruption to the average gamer. But I don't have confidence that Evony would be able to produce this.
For experienced bot makes this exercise is pointless. Solving Captcha is not for the beginners but it ain't impossible. I guess some are likely to have an edge for a little while, until the new and improved bot is slowly distributed.
Lets look at the rewards for botting.....
Res - Hero Training - Building - Efficient Troop Training
I personally think development in the game mechs around these areas would be alot more beneficial to Evony population AND the revenue.
But I dont hope for Evony to begin thinking outside the square I dont want the competition in the RTS market.
p.s.
If you are really smart you would only introduce it to new servers so people had the choice. I would prob play both....

(Clears throat) So... just to clear things up.... People who are happy with the captcha have not said why they like it... only that it SHOULD catch bots. People who don't like it are Chalking it up as another reason servers will lag, and that evony should fix server stability problems first. After reading this, i have to say this game is already a chore to play, I lurk on every server i play simply because i don't have time to chat and stay productive. My computer is slow to begin with, and on top of lag i have to guess random letters? I know this is SUPPOSED to help reduce lag, but in reality, when evony builds a better security system, all we get is a smarter thief. :P I see it making my life just a LITTLE more difficult. Perhaps i should just jump in the water and follow all you other fish downstream, but before i do, i have to say; they could have done so many other things that DIDN'T interrupt gameplay to detect 3rd party software, Yet they decided to use this. Incidentally, there is a bot for cracking captchas, It was designed by a guy who was tired of attempting captchas and getting them wrong because they were impossible to read.
"They say that we Spartans are descendants of Hercules himself."
"Defeat one man and you are a warrior, Defeat an army and you are a legend."
In Brightest day, in Darkest Night, Bat-Lantern fills you all with fright.
they like it because they think itll catch botters i havent seen anyone for the captchas come out and say ya itd be great to help reduse lag blah blah all of um say ya death to the botters! nothing more bots dont great lag active players do captchas will stop botters for a very short period of time thats whats not sinking into most of the people for them they dont realise the botters will get past it.. as they sit there typing in a captchas every 2hrs or so itll make it harder for the ppl who do play the game legitly i havent seen any Real Facts as to why i should be for it or why it would be a good thing thier reasons never stray from 1 point that being to catch botters as the reasons why its not a good idea just stack up and stack up
catching botters is easy! I caught many botters in my alliance without use of any software. Why don't they just recruit me to catch these botters?!!!! lol
