Thread: Captchas Now Testing on ss57 and ss60

    Default

    I hear everyone telling evony to get rid of the botters, the first improvement evony makes and everyone is still whineing? I think this is one of the first good updates in a while, will finally make capping hcs in pvp a little easier without people useing bots. Have broken many hcs on my server where all the player needs to do is throw a bot on so it gets loy raised. So good job evony finally makeing some improvements that'll help.

    It's not perfect from what i've seen changes need to be made to it like bigger letters lol. But atleast there attempting to help fix the botting that's what i hear people whineing about all the time.

    i play on SS57 . Ive played on that server way before all the server merge . S90 , then S90 went to a SS then to another SS and is now SS57 . Before the captcha b0ts were everywhere farming every npc for 20 miles on each b0t account over and over . There was never even a third of the way full npc no matter when you hit. Theb0t city's just farmed 24 hours a day continually right up to my front door over and over every 45 mins or so 24 hours a day .

    Now since the captcha has been implemented its been good farming . i can get to farming and getting 100% of resources out of my local npc field building and not fighting over npcs . i dont have a problem with npcs being empty 24 hours a day now .

    The server lag has just about disappeared now as soon as the captcha started also .

    To enter a stupid captcha ever few hours is a small price to pay . i dont see what all the fuss is about , Actually , their were so many b0tters on ss57 i guess all this fuss should have been expected . its kinda like letting your mother-in-law move in . You lay the rules and she agrees but when things hit the fan you go to bed and think " what else should i have expected " .

    Their were/was/is so many b0tters on that freakin server that its no wonder why there seems to be so much uproar .

    I for one think evony did a good job with the botbooting . Thanks Evo ~

    I am sorry that you get logged off when you are not actively playing. Now maybe we ALL will have alot less lag since it seems that this action by Evony will not only boot the cheats, but it will boot the selfish ones too. Nice work Evony.

    Now about my Queens

    How are you selfish to want to stay logged in and not active? Im host to an alliance and we have a good network set up that each can be contacted if under attack, I very often leave the game logged in so I can keep my eye on things and still continue with daily life also I leave it logged in over night so I can just look see whats going on over night in case anyone needs anything.
    As for your Queens thats a totally off topic subject so please stop and create another thread if your that bothered.

    Default Captchas a great idea w/ some bad setbacks

    I play on ss60 and must admit that the botting was getting out of hand and was excited to hear that Evony was going to do something about it. Since this captcha thing has gone into effect, there does seem to be a considerable amount of less players, which would indicate that the captcha is preventing people from botting. However, on the downside, the server is dead, I mean absolutely dead, there is nothing less exciting than playing on ss60 right now. And after the first couple days of the captchas they are starting to get real annoying. Especially with "rewarding" players with 10k of each resource, I feel like thats mocking the players instead. As a negative result of the captcha, it has completely killed a server in a matter of days.

    If the captcha would not come up when certain screens were open, this could work. If Im timing some attacks, then this captcha comes up....great. Of course this could mean players could just keep this screen open, but if it was closed automatically after a certain period of time, this would prevent that. Either make it so captchas don't log you out, and they just stay there until answered, or add an 'away' mode, where you could simply click a button, no captchas or anything like that would come up, and you wouldn't be able to take any more actions until you click the 'I'm back' button. Of course it's easier to simply make it so it doesn't log you out.

    Thanks Morgan for the awesome signature and avatar!

    Hey now, I REALLY like this idea, +rep

    Wonder if Evony will include it in future considerations
    I don't believe in thinking before I speak
    I prefer to be just as surprised as everyone else by what I say

    Dear Dawnseeker -Evony Community Manager-

    I don’t think I’m going to far here. “Captchas are part of our commitment to keeping Evony fun and fair for everyone!”-Dawnseeker. This is not making the game fair for everyone. How is it fair for people with money, to be able to rule the game? If this is the best thing that evony could think of, to make their game fair, then I’m very disappointed in you guys. I know the main reason evony is doing this Captchas thing is because you guys are losing money on bot severs, almost now 90% of evony age 1 uses a bot of some sort, rather it’s a click macro that doesn’t work very well, due to the latency issues from the actual script bots. The downfall from the bots that people use, if you have it set up really well, then it’s almost impossible to take a city.

    Let’s face it, the most part of evony coins at least 1 time a month, why not make the game a monthly subscription, and making the evony farm tool? I would certainly pay $30.00us/Month, witch by far I’m already doing, just to try and keep up. I really have not expected evony to let this bot issue go this far, I’m just wondering will this actually help or hinder the issue that you guys are actually trying to address. Because believe me, if everyone uses a bot then, how is it unfair, we may as well just post the link in forums and say here’s the tool, would that not make it fair? What you guys are doing is not fixing the unfair/fairness in this game. Everyone having the same options as others is only fair. Buying packages is not an option for everyone.

    Thanks –DaTrump-

    Please don’t delete this post as soon as you read it Nathan. Let this actually be discussed!
