Title: Recaptcha issues with login
Post by: parobber on November 16, 2017, 11:19:44 PM
Hello,

Hopefully someone can help me because this has really started to frustrate me a few times now. When trying to login and filling in the recaptcha I often find that it is simply not possible for it to accept my answer. I can notice when this will happen in one of two ways:

1. The "select all images of cars until none remain" (or similar) takes a long time when loading the new image.

2. The "select all images of street signs" (or similar) requires me to complete always 5 times before saying to try again (when able to verify successfully it is always on the second one)

I have tried in many browsers, firefox, chrome, edge and have sometimes had issues with each of them. The only thing I've found that I can do it just constantly refresh and try again but it has on occasion taken upwards of 10 tries before being able to login.

And before anyone says it - no I am not completing the recaptcha wrong, I know very well what a car or a street sign looks like.

This is also bugging me sometime but i do not reach 10 maximum, it just happen to me 2 or 3 times.

The question here is why are you logging out your account if you have your own PC? You can always check the "always stay logged in" so you can avoid this captcha problem of yours.

Try clearing your browser's cookies. Apparently, it occasionally helps.

I have this problem also and it is very annoying.Sometimes I just get message that my computer send automated queries and only thing that help is to reset my modem to get new IP address.

Situation became much worse in last few weeks and many users complain that reCaptcha is completely unsolvable,and this is particularly evident in faucets where you need to solve captcha to claim reward.

It would be nice to add second captcha to login as choice,I think many would be grateful for that.

One of the reasons why the image captcha is widely used, is it's not as easy to automate such as the other captchas. That's why it's popular, and I think it's a very good system at it's core. I've only ever had problems with the captcha loading slow, or becoming unsolvable when using Tor. But, I imagine clearing your cookies would fix it on Firefox/Chrome.

It's becoming easier and easier to automate. Eventually, captchas will be entirely broken as machine learning gets better and better.
