Add a captcha already

they've become very good, these bots, ChattersMitt and TeeGee can't distinguish them from people. Turing test passed.


Or.. maybe we should use smarter humans to apply the test..

Captchas are the worst. I hope they die.

captcha would be only for registering new accounts.. not for logging on.

Even still, they are terrible. I can never read them and/or they don't load. That means all new members would need to file an e-ticket to even make an account.

there are different types.. some are really annoying and you can never tell the letter really, but others are ok. i think google uses one that's like a grid and you have to select the squares in the grid that contain something like street signs or other stuff.

i assume CC could use one that's free.. i honestly have no idea what's available out there.. but think one is really needed.

A great CAPTCHA would be having to correctly determine the gender after being shown a picture of swdk's surgically-altered genitalia.
