Oh, haha! I have found some material and yes, it's a cute system XD
I like it that they're pictures and not text.

But like it's been said, it's sad you had to use this :(
Hope this finally gets rid of all the cheaters out there! Thanks for your hard work, Firn and Starkad!

I just hit that test. Nice piece of work Starkad. Glad to know that bots aren't going to be collecting materials anymore.

I can't belive there'd be botters on a site like this! How lazy are people??? It's not like its hard to make fps,or find materials! (well materials are a bit harder but you can easily buy them!) Since when has this been going on?

I'm really sad to hear of this, I'd heard of botter on online games such as Ragnarok and such but a forum-like game wich is all about being part of a comunity.... And besides its so much nicer when you find material yourself, its such a nice surprise...kills the fun of it -_-

Yes, this is exactly what we need. Thank you, Firn and Starkad. Hopefully, it stops Botters.

I haven't come across one yet, but thanks for using pictures instead of words. My middle-aged eyes can never make out the text on those distorted text things.

I agree that it's sad that this had to be done. There is no fun in cheating IMHO.

Good idea :mccute:

Edit: I just ran into one. I like it, it's innovative. and WAY better than those scambly word things that I can't even read sometimes. :qh:

I read through the entire thread, but couldn't find the answers to my questions:

~ Will this Captcha pop up every time we find a material or just at random?
~ If you pick the wrong answer, will you lose the material too? As in, you're not getting it? Like someone said above, the fish & candy as food, I'd be in doubt too... .-.

It's really necessary, I know...but I really hope I don't have problems with tha captchas here ;_;

Sometimes I feel like a computer myself...can't read the captchas xD

But thanks Starkad...I know it's annoying for Firn and you too to add those captchas "mchappy"

Yes. They pop up every time.
If you fail you do not get the material (what would be the point of it? Wouldn't stop bots to collect them) and you get reported to our system.
Don't worry, just because you picked the wrong image once doesn't automatically label you as a bot! But if we notice that someone repeatedly cant tell a toy apart from food we will step in and take some actions.
It's also not difficult to tell which image is right: even if you have a fish and a candy it isn't really hard to guess that the candy is rather the food than the fish.
