Captchas will be heiroglyphics soon
 

Usually they're just common dictionary words, albeit sometimes really hard to read.

But just now, I got this:

WTF??? :helpme


Edit: It's not like I couldn't type it in, it was just quite surprising...

yeah those things are getting fucking stupid

the one on ticketmaster is really annoying

blame the damn relentless spammers

Hint: The second half of that captcha can be disregarded completely.

yeah those fractions and dashes suck. Might as well just ask 5 questions from a list of 500 questions, so a bot would have a hard time doing them all. With several spelling variations of each.

I just do simple math... easy as pie.

some take the closest result to the actual image

true!

captcha's are more annoying than spam....

Captchas in general are a fucking joke. Do you really think a Captcha stops fuck all for spam? Not a fat fucking chance. It might knockout the smalltimers, but the big operations go right through that shit. Even the best Captchas are easily bypassed by bots using foreign captcha typing services via their own APIs for a penny or two a typein.
