It should work once, at 7 days; if you login with a non-JS device, it forces captcha regardless (anti-bot)

Ok here is my latest review of the issue.
when I go home on laptop or desktop, there is a green check next to .... password entry(?) and no captcha is needed. This would be the easiest time to enter a captcha.
Tonight and every day/night w/e I go on android, a captcha must be entered. I switch from wifi to 4g .. captcha. I switch from 4g to wifi, captcha. Today I switched browsers on android and I had to enter captcha.
This is the most difficult and tedious time to do , since its harder to make out the fluffty captcha. :-(

I've only logged in from this one machine, did not clear any kind of history and only used one browser. This morning I was getting hit and I got captcha'ed without a delay option... I'm also very sure that my captcha shows every sunday... and today is only friday.. And I get my bonuses daily and I am pretty certain I had the green checkmark when I logged in.

I'm not sure if that's the intended way that it works now (as it seems very biased against walling). If it is, ignore this. If it isn't, I just thought I'd post about it.

Catpcha Displayed because you last answered a captcha for this device (Device ID: 515) Oct 04, 2013


Um... I captcha like 3-4x a day every day.

So I exit and go in again on the same devise and captcha again. Lol.

Oh and before logging out it told me I had 7 days until my next captcha. Lol

Can you please just drop this change? It doesn't help anything, and the old system was working fine. *sigh*

I just captchad a few times trying to log in as wifi was dropping in and out. I'll check codes another time. It's bedtime. I basically log in from the same device every time. Just depends on my wifi, or 3G/ mobile or full site. Usually always mobile site.

Maybe you should use a cookie instead of using IP address to differentiate devices. Granted, local cookies can be edited.

It's too bad that you even need to have this to prove that the player is real and not a bot. This is what comes out of people cheating over a game. :(

This is why there are so many security devices to stop people from opening jars and such. That one moron who tampered with the Tylenol did all this to us. Think about it, it only really takes ONE idiot to screw us all around.

Personally on mobile device I can make numbers out easier so I "refresh until they come up. You could refresh until they don't?

And on android now " Next Captcha for this device: 119.5 hours Click here to do one now!"

I got forced captcha (not delayable) although I did captcha few days ago and timer had 2 days left (at least) reason being not doing captcha on this device before but device and browser is same as it was few days ago when I did captcha.

edit: it was due browser update but for some reason no captcha yesterday.
