So much for CAPTCHA then – bots can complete them quicker than humans

The worst captcha are the ones on 4chan. I don't think I've ever gotten it right on my first try. It really discourages participation from all but the most dedicated of people. I swear it was added with the ultimate goal of reducing activity and getting regulars to pay for gold.

I find them easier than the stoplight clicking or puzzle piece dragging captchas, which is not saying much.

Gold... a 4chan pass?

Really? Half of /g/ was using an auto solver on it. It's broken now I think still but the one that slides the letters works.

When you get used to it it doesn't seem that hard... Twitter on the other hand is incredibly confusing with the visual one but the audio is easy

I prefer 4chan captcha to the bicycle selection though. Once you get an eye for it, it’s almost impossible to get it wrong
