Captcha is the worst thing of the year all years. If I have to cycle through a dozen more strings of upside-down greek to find something I can even attempt I'm going to have a rage stroke.

Funny thing is that after week of ReCaptcha, Moot tried to replace it with simple one, that was so small, that it was impossible to read and after turning it off completly, spam came back almost instantly and people started bitching Moot to turn it on back again..

No, it's never only the first one, it differentiates between first and second. If you look at it for a second though, it should be easy to understand which one is the one that needs to be typed correctly. Usually it's always in the same font, and distorted usually distrorted by the same filters. This makes you able to recognise which one is the one that needs to be correctly typed.

read about it. The "trick" word is scanned from some book that they want you to transcribe for them. So if you put in "nigger" it'll accept it and that's what the ebook will end up saying.

You do know that Google has been failing at that whole "don't be evil" thing for a couple of years now, right. Fuck'em.

Though I usually change the "trick" word to its antonym if it's english. Typing "nigger" or "Schmidtsucksniggercock" is reserved for words I don't understand.

Look, spam bogs down the site and is always either a botnet link or that unreadable AT shit. It doesn't do anyone any good and wastes 4chan's resources. Plus it is annoying as FUCK when it is bumping random near-dead threads and generally looking ugly/posting the same pictures over and over again all the fucking time.

I have no illusions of "sticking it to the man." It's just easier to type "nigger" than "雙" which it won't accept anyway and I don't feel bad about doing so since google doesn't feel bad about reading my student e-mail (it was forced on everyone at my university) and using it to better target ads at me (which are blocked anyway but it's the principle of the thing).

God that's a long sentence.

I can filter that stuff. Only idiots get caught up in botnets, and anontalk is more or less defunct. I can't filter having to type in some stupid phrase every time I want to call one of you lot an idiot, so it takes priority on my shitlist.

Some of the spam was getting basically impossible to filter (and was getting posted so often it was outnumbering real posts on some boards)... that was pretty much the tipping point and why Captcha came about. Idiots doing that 4chan.hta thing which allowed bots to clone old posts/pictures.

In the beginning, there was this big jumble of text that told you to save it to a word file and run it as a script. The script posted itself back on 4chan telling others to do the same.

Then, there was an image telling you to save and rename it. This went through many different incarnations; being killed by moot then reincarnating in slightly different forms months later.

Most recently, there was Cornelia. The smartest and cutest botnet yet, she will probably be back bigger and stronger in a few more weeks.

Moot hates Captcha as well.
He resisted for quite a while despite people insisting we should use it.

Now that he's forced to make us use Captcha, I can see why as at times Captcha really does seem more annoying than spam... I think I'm starting to see that 4chan isn't really meant for Captcha.
