Fire Hydrants

Nice post, something completely different as i am used to see here.

Sometimes i have to do several captchas even tough i am certain that i have done the first one correctly, it annoys me also. I suppose that it could have something to do with cookies.

The fire hydrant one is very easy you newbs (please ignore my comment if you are colorblind). These things get more serious when identifying storefronts. I think I got a 10% success rate, not sure if it's a store or something else. I wish I could read Chinese and Japanese.

*If you are wondering, this is a joke. I'm not stupid.

These things can be labor intensive for TOR users.  Is there a way for the forum to view the IP on the TOR exit node and know in advance if it is blocked due to over use?  I have times where I go through "pain" making it through the Captcha and then when I click enter to sign in the site comes back and states the IP has been used too many times or whatever.

I wish Theymos would charge 5 bucks a month for a user to enable U2F and that would now be my sign in option over the current entry requirement.  If that is too much maybe 20-25 bucks a year to have that option.  Great deal for me, but sadly not offered.

For cloudflare captchas - request a new Tor circuit when you get a captcha.
For login captchas - https://bitcointalk.org/captcha_code.php

I have experienced the same thing (to select or mark Fyre hydrant, car, store) or called (captcha). At that time I was confused and panicked, why when I logged in it appeared like, then I asked my friend, it turned out that it had a useful function. One of them is to avoid the bot account or actually state that the login is a human, not a robot. And that is a useful experience for me.

Why don't you check that "perma login" option? That way it's just one time nightmare. Plus, most of the times I don't even get all these selection options in Google Captcha. A simple click on the Google Captcha box and it ticks it right away... Isn't it this way for most of you?

Some people share a device and don't want others who use the same device to snoop around, so perma login really isn't a good option. Plus, my understanding is if you clear the cookies, you have to go through picking the storefronts and crosswalks again.
