Thread: Captcha hurry please

  1. #1

    Default Captcha hurry please

    I realize that the captcha is not popular with everyone, but I hope that it is coming soon to our server. I also realize that it may create many new issues and that it will not solve all of the problems on our servers, but many of us are willing to take the chance that it will at least alleviate many of them.

    I also realize that this may not make me the most popular person on my server . . . .

    But please, accelerate the schedule of putting the captcha on servers. Whether the decision to take this course was to shut up those of us who post (okay whine) too much about bots or to ease the traffic on the servers, it's a step many players are glad to see you take. Some of us just hope you will take those steps a little faster.

    Once every two hours is a very generous system, I've been on games where you're required to do visual captchas for every action that involves game currency. If they didn't work then captcha would have died already and would not be a standard requirement of most websites.

    The servers are rampant with botters and the sooner it's curbed the better.

    These things come in stages. After internal testing is complete, we need to see the results on a live server before we decide on wide spread implementation. Moving too fast can cause more problems than it solves.

    Pffft captcha still one of evo's most retarded ideas yet don't encourage them this is only going to lead to more failed attacks and defences and the botter's will have a workaround soon enough. And the bot's won't struggle to read it like we will lol.

    If it is a bad idea or retarded I dont care as long as it stops botters to some level. At least they are doing something since they dont want to ban botters and loose their precious money. Also lag is getting stupid. If I wanted to watch a clock I would look on my wall not the screen.

    Get captcha on ss58 as soon as possible!

    :/ now I'm going to have to pay my little cousin to sit at the computer all day to bypass the captcha! In all seriousness, be glad that the Evony team is taking it slow to test it out!

    Be careful what you ask for, as the bots are finding ways around this you will still be wondering "is that an I or a 1, is that a o or an 0 and OMGWTF is that on top of that pushed up against that"
