reCaptcha Driving me Mad!

[Unai Emery]

Anyone else?

You know the one where you have to select the squares with the traffic signs. Is it just the squares encompassing a whole sign? Do the posts count as part of the sign? Do you include the tiles where a small portion of the sign overflows?

Hardly ever works for me whatever rules I follow. And once you get it wrong it all seems to get a whole lot harder

Work of the devil....

The question text should contain the answer but normally its any part of the sign.

It's a trick one that makes it harder for not only robots to access the content but useless feckwits as well..

Seems to be pretty effective.

You're providing training data for their self-driving cars, so make sure you get it right or they'll take their revenge when they see you on the road…

Funny coincidence as I was thinking exactly the same thing when I did a captcha half hour ago.

Wonder if they need to be so complex, one site just has a simple maths thing, 8+5=? Would a robot solve that? It would need to understand the context of the question. Maybe 8 and 5 and + could be images?

Well, from the three posts of yours that I've read I've reached the conclusion that you, sir, are a bit of a wenker.

Yes, and I always seem to get it when I'm in a rush.

The one I did the other day (select all tiles with cars) started rendering new tiles as I was clicking Does it really have to be that complicated?
