It is a new thing on the forums. I already got it once, too, when I had ten+ Forum tabs open. I don't know whether the number of tabs are related to it popping up though, or if it was coincidence. But it's an unnecessary feature that'll get annoying quickly, if it ends up triggering too often.

It's a bit like the puzzle piece placement part of logging into Genshin Impact, just that the task is even worse.

Linken.6345 Posted September 16, 2023 Author Share Posted September 16, 2023 Yea I usualy got afew tabs open aswell, wonder if thats what triggers it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy.3728 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) I open about 2-3 tabs and didn't get that one yet. I hate any kind of captcha. I wish the inventor of captchas, where you have only one picture and all parts of whatever have to be marked, the exact same thing at his toilet door, to unlock it. And then it should work just as bad as for me. Edited September 17, 2023 by Lucy.3728 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beleron.9347 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Am I a bot spam? Well, cogito, ergo sum says otherwise, but then again, there are people crazy enough to believe we live in a computer simulation, so who knows? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teknomancer.4895 Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 IDK but that really is a lot of open forum tabs. Thin it out a bit maybe? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also that is a massive amount of open tabs. Those can't all be active topics, why not read and close some? Or bookmark ones you want to refer back to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume this amount of tabs in the image is an exaggerated amount to try and force the captcha to pop up. I got it with just above ten tabs. But after the first time I didn't get it again (so far).

It is not, what I do first when I open lets say general discussion or any other of the main section, I then open all the tabs I have interest in (with new posts) on the first and second page of those. Then I go through them 1 by 1 read and reply as needed. I mean there is a reason I got 13.2k posts.

But if you had no brain and thus couldn't think for yourself, you'd only move based on electric impulses and signals. Thus, you'd qualify as a machine, even if you are made of meat and bone, instead of metals and other artificial components. 3 hours ago, DanAlcedo.3281 said: It doesn't do a good job then when it checks for brains. Looking at the topics posted here daily. Checking for the existence of a brain and checking the quality within are fundamentally different tasks.
