Is it me, or does TER have the longest check-off lists ever created for prove you're not a robot?

I'm thinking of building a robot to complete the task of proving I'm not a robot!

I don't like New TER at all, but one of the changes I do like is the end of the ridiculously long "CAPTCHAs" that have been replaced with a very easy and simple "I am not a robot"

Is it really THAT hard to make a single click?

The new captcha system is looking at your connection and deciding how sure it is that you're not a robot. If you use a service like TOR, or a popular VPN, it's going to make you answer harder captchas, and there will be more of them. If your ip looks like it's coming from somewhere trustworthy, you'll get like 1 or 2 tops.

Also, it's ramping the difficulty up if you don't solve the captcha right, so potentially you could be at it for awhile if you're just bad at it.

Sorry, guess I am still thinking about the new Blade Runner trailer.

I have encountered this new test when submitting a problem report. It was easy and better than a captcha, which are sometimes hard to read.

Single click? On my computer I'm having to go through multiple rounds of multiple clicks. Finding it very annoying.

because on the new version all I have to do to submit a problem report or other action that used to require a CAPTCHA, is to simply check a box that reads "I am not a robot" and my stuff sails right through.

I suppose I would find what you are going through to be quite annoying too, but it has not presented itself as an issue for me.

Well I don't have tor or a vpn and I've never had a single click I'm not a robot. Every time, I get one of those things check every box with a road sign or a vehicle or whatever. I think once, I had to do two of them, but the first one was very ambiguous. There was a box with a sliver of the sign from the box next door and I wasn't sure what to do. LoL. I don't remember what I decided but I think it was wrong.

Anyways, I guess having to find photos with storefronts in them is way better than dealing with a bunch of robots running amok around TER. Some robots aren't nice people.

The tests are usually very literal, so if there's any part of the sign in the square it wants you to click it.

 

It could be that you've missed enough of them that your IP is now sullied. The service isn't site based, so if you've missed them anywhere on the internet, that counts too. You could also be on a shared IP, depending on your internet service, which means that it wouldn't even have to be you missing them.

 
Something easy to try would be to call up your ISP and have them issue you a new IP address. You can sometimes do this manually by unplugging your modem for an hour or so, but it's surefire to just get a new IP and be done with it. That'll probably fix it for you.

Than Ticketmaster, or the many other sites that use them.
