Captchas Are About To Get A WHOLE LOT HARDER for bots.

Maybe you should re-read rule#9. Nothing that I have said applies there. However, it does say something that might help you out a bit:
I'm pretty sure "the fox guarding the chicken coop" falls under English language slang if nothing else.
So I pose this question again:
Do you not understand what "the fox guarding the chicken coop" actually means?
Okay I clearly over-reacted in my last post -- and I still haven't changed my opinion about Zeros because of all his posts. And no, I will not waste time finding out a zillion worthless posts of his as that would be like debating with a kitchen table.
Anyway I have a million other things to do than debate here so I am out of this thread. And yes, I retract my remarks from this thread.
/over and out.

@Lord B, the U.S.A. is full of people who eat McDonalds every day. Canada is all igloos. Europe is all socialists. India is all programmers/call centers.
Why are these things, which are obviously only partially serious, so offensive to people?
Edit: also, obviously Zeros post was a joke. And imo, a funny one.

Fair enough, LordB. In the interests of disarming, I will admit to my intentional stab at you for the grass hut - I wanted to push your buttons so I apologize.
I still think you're wrong about my other posts though. I don't feel like I have exhibited racial bias in the past aside from the usual 'Family Guy-esque' jokes which is inherent to the WickedFire aura.

No. It's just about how people will do whatever to hold onto their own slice of the pie. Even invent the next level of solution in order to be able to crack it.
Hmm I hesitate to take this further as it's obviously got people riled up (which is nothing new on wickedfire but this is not the tone of the OP ).
Lord, if you want to combat racism you have to be willing have an open dialog about it. My question was honest and logical, not meant to incite emotions, I really would like to figure it out.
EDIT: And just cause I still feel guilty about the derailment I'll bring it back to OP- How is this going to effect my mad ubot script writing skilz??!!??

Wow, I wasn't expecting to come back to this.
I dont think zeros meant to be racist. I have no idea. I don't know him well enough but he's already reminded me it's dangerous to make assumptions.
On the other hand, it's dangerous to brush these things aside when someone's racially offended. In fact, when something becomes offensive we should deal with it.
But it seems we're past this now?

We've all kissed and made up. now let's get back to talking about Boobs, Ballers & Badass Cars .... oh yeah, and making money.
They always keep trying to make a more complex system (which forces out more 'average' users) yet there will always be an option for those of us who automate.
I bought something like 12k decaptchers for $15 bucks , which IMO isn't a bad cost....As long as i could intergrate it into xrumer if need be , i'll be happy
Also , from what I can tell , my current system can beat 'is this a duck ' captchas.

It's good to know this is the only thing people paid any attention to Barney Frank for - you know, not the fact that he played a hand in the economic collapse.
"Boobs, ballers, Badass Cars" I find to be very racist, salacious, ostentatious, and malicious.
Why? Because no pics were included for reference! ;-)
Glad you werent banned bro, WF would be much duller without you.
Not really sure how he is being racist. It is not true that you can hire Indian workers for $1 an hour? I have several Indians currently working for me for $.75 an hour.
Other countries, races and religeons are assulted daily on this forum by everyone including mods but I don't see anyone ever get threatend of bannage for it.
Late to the party. Here are some for you:

What is common to all of them? You are the first one to mention "Indians" in all these threads in a derogatory way. None of the threads are about India or Indians (as far as I could see - if there is one, consider that as the exception).
At the same time, came across this, posted by you, again mentioning Indians: epic thread!

Hope you see the difference.
Yes, animated captchas and video captchas are already being researched and tested by these guys. Better start writing the hacks now itself, or wait for Eli to drop it after 2-3 years (and get DDOSed in the process).
Or, if you don't know how to write it, and need it immediately, you can always outsource it for a couple of bucks to "those" Indian guys...
Barney Frank's hand in it was nothing compared to Greenspan's. Isn't "laissez-faire central banker" an obvious oxymoron?
Greenspan's approach: Let's artificially set the cost of credit and then let the markets do whatever they want with it.
If you're going to artificially set the cost of credit then you need to make sure the *ahem* hen house is well guarded.

Not like I owe you an explanation. However none of those links prove a damn thing whatsoever. All of them are backed by facts, not ideology.
(except this one)
Now shut up and go make me a Slurpee!
