    No real bot solution found as of now
    (and no, the captcha window popping up in the bot client is not a solution - it defeats the reason why a person bots anyway, to be able to play even if the player is not physically present)

    Funny how many of you that claim that those against it are botters.

    Well, guess what? They banned me because I was "botting." Thing is, I wasn't. I was one that would be on great amounts of time. However, apparently one day I was trying to get back on after maintenance to capture a flat that would be a 10.

    After that, I've been considering leaving evony once and for all. Customer service is a joke (there is none). Besides, they took all my cities and hero's when I went on Holiday (before the ban incident, an actual paid holiday). So not only did I lose what money I spent to "protect" my account for the holiday, pretty much was wasted for nothing.

    Now this, another popup game. Farmville is bad enough with all of their popups. This will get me to leave for sure now. Good job Evony.

    KF, I say this in a very kind, non-judgmental way, but there is an obvious level of ignorance (dictionary meaning of that word, not an insult) to your understanding of dyslexia. It can be much more than just re-ordering of letters, which is what much of the non-dyslexic public knows it to be. It's a brain decoding disorder with levels nowhere near as simple as "cat" looking like "tac." d can look like b, p, q or cl.

    Google "what does dyslexia look like" and one of the top results is "images for what does dyslexia look like." I can't imagine anyone looking at those images and saying that it would be easy for someone with dyslexia to simply type what they see, one by one.

    Some will argue that people with that severe of an affliction of dyslexia wouldn't be playing in the first place, but many people do make accommodations to normal printed text (context of words they have learned to recognize helps immensely in understanding chat). Captcha is taking letters out of context, out of form, and it can create a legitimate issue, making the game unplayable if there is not also an audio option.

    Default So this makes it hard for busy people

    You know this will hurt and change the way I use evony. When I get to the office my startup starts evony. When I can between meetings or when I'm at my desk I farm and chat. But I'm not at my desk most of the day. When I go home it is the same -I boot computer - evony starts - when I can I chat, attack, and farm. I do not quit evony until I go to work the next day. So if I'm not there to answer the popup it will happen more often.

    If you want to end botting and get better game play reduce or end the food requirement. That is what most botters do - FARM - not attack. This game is about attacking/defending and the people in chat. Focus on the purpose of the game and adjust game play (food requirements) and not a programming pain in the #@%.

    Greetings all,

    Here is your daily post to blow out of proportion and flame me on!!!

    We have modified the captcha to add a reload feature so if you get one of those unreadable ones. This will help on those really hard to read ones. You asked for it, and you got it! We will still be working on it and tweaking some things.


    As a second note I need to reiterate what the last 3 pages have been complaining about.

    THE CAPTCHA WILL NOT LOG YOU OUT, THE CAPTCHA WILL NOT LOG YOU OUT.


    If you are AFK and the captcha comes up, the game will continue to run, and you should still see chat. You will not be able to enter any game commands, untill the captcha is answered.

    If you are being logged out when the captcha pops, it is because your "client" has sent in commands while the captcha is up, this can only happen if you are using a bot, as the normal game client cannot do this, and has been extensively tested.

    I'm reasonably confident that this system is working 100% correctly as in 100 pages of posts not one person has said that the pop up occurred and they got logged out while playing. I'll say that again.... Amazingly only people that AFK are saying they got logged out. I had the captcha up unanswered on the entire QA testing group of computers running multiple windows/tabs/ browsers OS' etc. About 75 different accounts and not a single one logged off last night, and they all had the captcha up when I looked at them. All stayed logged in.

    For the people that have submitted CS tickets in regards the captcha logging them off, we have asked them if they would like for us to review the player log data, with a warning that if we see bot use in the player logs ( pretty easy actually with a manual review) We will suspend and or close the account. So far every single person that was told this asked that we not inspect their account. We are looking for a example that we can verify where a captcha logged a player out while they where afk.
