Shadowknight12 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) So I figured that since I have such a bizarre relationship with the RECAPTCHA feature, I would start a thread to record my adventures for posterity. Please, feel free to pitch in with some of your own! This is what sparked the thread: As you can see, I don't know whether the RECAPTCHA expects greatness of me, if it has needs that only *I* can supply, if it wants to share its love of irrational mathematics with me, or if it's simply insane. I'm betting on the latter. Update: I fooled the RECAPTCHA with a simple "3/2," so we can rule out the mathematical inclinations.

DemonGoddess Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 The only consolation I have for ya on the vagaries of recaptcha, is that ANY site that uses it, has the oddball text combos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueMudblood Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Well, I didn't screen it, but I just had "Operations askslag" as the recaptcha text. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonGoddess Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 That's okay....Danyealle had a site generate a recaptcha text for her in KANJI of all things. At least it wasn't here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowknight12 Posted February 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) The RECAPTCHA wants to tell me something. It is trying to communicate with me, in some arcane language or code. I must investigate this matter deeper... EDIT: The image is there, it's just ImageShack being a finicky hag. Adding the image as an attachment... EDIT 2: It's a 5/3 exponent. Which by mathematical rules means "the cubic root of something elevated to its fifth power." It keeps getting mathematical on me.

FairySlayer Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 I've been using the new challenge button quite a bit lately. It's gotten so bad that we actually need to create quantum computers to decipher these for us. Wait, wouldn't that defeat the purpose? Then again, sometimes it likes to add its own commentary to whatever we're doing. This is the one it gave me when I uploaded "Payback's a Pussy" — and I was darned proud.

Keith Inc. Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 (edited) I've been deleting and reloading about 70 chapters of one of my stories here. (Formatting issues and why did no one ever tell me i never posted chapter 11?) And i've had a few posers show up on reCAPTCHA. The last one scared me...is it THAT easy? Or too good to be true...? I feared if i answered, the screen would explode... Edited March 10, 2011 by Keith Inc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueMudblood Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 "Hello, recapcha? Yes, I'd like to have a manual on how to use your program. Well, you see, every time I go to type in the code, I have to change the language setting on my keyboard, get out the character map for the new language, which I don't read, to find out which button to push... I thought, surely you must have it all in a book for me for easy reference, yes? And is there a way to program quick keys for the most common language alterations I'll need?" Of course, the operator hung up on Bobby when he called technical support. He just couldn't understand why Kanji was such a difficult language to type in. After all, the characters are right there on the keys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
