just registered to post on here and it took 2 attempts to get through the captcha lol
at least indicate if letters like 's' are capitals, and make 'g' not look like '9'!!

in principle i dont have a problem with the captcha, if it is done right, but all claims of "even playing field" are rubbish. so advantage goes from botters who spend money to unemployed people who can stay on evony 18hrs day and farm like mad, running multiple accounts. same problem, different people doing it.
given evony has removed external links to age 1, they clearly just waiting to close the servers down and just run age 2. this will speed it up.
Short term they will have a run on packages to get vestas to support larger armies.
either way the honest player with a job that doesnt allow playing evony during work hours is gonna get massively creamed.
not seeing any improvement or change there.
Player population hasn't dropped in respect to the Captcha, not fully anyway. Many Many players are waiting to see if this becomes permanent before leaving Evony.
There is always some great feedback and negative feedback to most new features. Though I expect negative far outways the possitive - and more then the 7 to 1 rule.
See more requests in the forums asking if it will be put on old servers - most do not want it.
Five 9's on Captcha second try - Wow guess I'm going to the eye doctor cause my 20/20 eyes are not that good.
Of course lag has been reduced - less people playing (in holiday or quitting) equal's less load on servers. So that basically shows that you allow for too many accounts on a server.
Whether or not it stays on the servers 100% is why you haven't dropped more players - they are sticking it out to see what happens. They don't want to quit and find out you drop the captcha tomorrow or next week. Once it's known it is here to stay - they will leave.
Just my thoughts based on what I am hearing on the server/skype.
I have read almost every page on this subject and feel since my idea of just agreeing to kick myself in the sac every hr did not take hold , cuz I can do it when I am ok to do it. Let's look at the big issues :
1 Coiners week 2 of server attack hero is at 700
2 Bots were made to lvl up Hero's faster to compete with coiners.
3 Well if we can do this on one let's make multi accounts to do same to feed main
4.Evony takes too long to clear inactive players out so we can all make multi accts and not use them for room to port around once state gets full.
5.Now handicapped people and unemployed are targeted because they can play 18hrs a day
6. Evony really needs to work on who they hire to represent them
7.It is ridiculous for anyone to actually think in any way shape or form captcha's r going to do anything positive for this game.
8. Evony is built on waiting , builds , troops , new cities and now cuz there just was not enough waiting : now we wait for captcha's
ok well I have had my say we all know new bot's will come out welcome to the virtual reality age .
So again I think we should all just sign an agreement to kick ourselves in the sac ( females u have to think of your own deal , as I do not want to appear as a woman hater ) Least then would be when we choose too not when u choose to ruin my gameplay
Seriously, neko, do you have some quotes of mine? I'm not saying you have no point, but I seriously don't know what you are talking about. My comments against Thantium's post were spot on--nobody in power moderating a forum should be insinuating an opinion about the validity of people's posts based on how many posts they've logged. It's simply bad ethics.
Are you sure you're not confusing me with someone else? Please quote me and point out where your concerns are, and I will address them.
Yesterday I had my first captcha
guys, no point complaining about captcha, i doubt it even has any relation to "improving the game".
with all external links going direct to age 2, age 1 is on its last legs. bots and coiners are all thats keeping it going.
evony bosses have have seen the potential cash flow from killing the bots with respect to the vestas needed to maitain those large armies.
its a business decision, evony IS just a business after all.
EITHER mega coiners will spend more to keep permanent vestas OR they will quit.
if evony WANTED age 1 to survive, it would still have external links.
Age 2 is established, thats their money tree now. Captcha is clever business decision to maximise income in the games last years
