    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.
    Most likely, When you get the capcha you will once again post in forums how it does more harm than good and makes evony more difficult to play... well, if it could be with the lag and the server maintenance malfunctions evony is deemed to be as unreliable as it gets. (don't ask me why I still play) Just because it is "supposed" to rid us of b0ts doesn't necessarily mean it will. If anything evony could just have taken a step down the road of "making the game harder for honest players" and give players an official reason to b0t themselves. The result and the effect it has against b0ts and lag will be determined whenever the initial testing is finished.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, why would you want to be interupted with a silly guessing game when in the middle camping a load of attacks or getting ready to open your gates at the last second to wipe an enemies attack?? This is NOT how RTS games are played!!

    If this is indeed rolled out over all the servers i gurantee it will only end in tears, players will lose cities ,troops,heroes and patience and Evony will money..

    This is NOT good for our game and will do more damage than any b0tter or multi-accounter will ever do..

    another thread about this really? starting on your own thread does not make your comment anymore important than posting to a thread that has already been created for this topic.
    have i gone to the server to test it out see how it goes? .. no not worth my time
    however i have kept up on reading most of the threads, the people for this are thinking this is going to be the end all to botting, they are foolishly mistaken, if botters want to bot they will, rumours are surfacing everywhere of bots already thru testing able to crack the current capcha system, are they just rumours? maybe but if they dont have them already they will.
    Why cant we go back to what was said by i believe dave .. i could be wrong, that instead of trying to remove the botters we remove the reasons they feel they need to do it.
    People have lives, wifes, children, jobs, school, and although they love this game and the friends they have met here its not possible to keep up, they have been playing 2 years invested into their accounts same as us and dont want to loose it all. so after almost losing a job or a marrige ( i have seen both over this game ) people turn to the only other way they can find to farm and still get ahead and not loose whats really most important.

    Do i have the answers on how to fix this .. hmm no. but i dont think capchas are the answer. i have nothing against them, i just honestly think people are going to be unhappy when they realize 2 days after the capchas are implemented that all the botters are back. Lets look for a better solution together instead of blindly thinking this is the ultimate answer to fix your server just because no other solution has been offered or is available.

    lmao im sorry but i dont think u know the damage this will do to your game it wont clear up any lag it wont stop bots from what they are talking about

    it will give your city a handicap that could cause u to lose everything

    maybe u only play 3 hours a day so the absolute no help but only a hindrance system wont effect u much

    any way it was asked not to open up any more threads about this situation the first thread is paused and been carefully read
    and tut tut dawn u should know better

    No matter how much thou shall cry,
    The little angel girl will never look at you,
    For you are no more than a miserable guy,
    That has nothing to offer, except flu!

    She is truly beautiful to behold
    From a distance, see her angelic shell
    Deep down she is just a demon from Hell
    Her heart is cold, to the devil it?s sold

    Her wrath on men has begun to unfold
    She never loves them
    they are blind to tell
    From the beginning
    caught in her spell
    She hurt them deeply
    made their hearts grow cold

    It is true, beauty is only skin deep
    What I am saying
    is the proof to see
    Show him your heart
    he?ll be yours to keep
    Listen to me
    only true love is the key

    Find a man that loves you
    then you will see
    Your love will last
    for all eternity

    Just make the captcha only activate when clicking on a barbarian city, that is what the bots are used for -farming barbs. Then the captcha won't appear in the middle of a defence or some other senstitive tactic.

    I`m not a programmer but I do not see why it can't be done.

    Captcha is the best thing to happen to this game
