Well alot of people know that I presonally am obsessed with CAPTCHA's... that said... CAPTCHA's can be cracked as well... B33rMast3r said the method I posted above wouldn't work... so I guess this is automation that you suggested... and also that someone probably cracked the HCS CAPTCHA if they made it themselves...

It is also worth noting... no matter how hard you make a CAPTCHA there will be someone who can and may crack it... the only thing is, how much are you willing to take it before it becomes a nuance on players who did not try to cheat... I think it may be more worth it to ban those making and using automation methods then to make the CAPTCHA more difficult...

The other day I was trying to login to my gmail account, and I mistyped my password a few times... then it started throwing in a CAPTCHA... and I couldn't even read the text in the CAPTCHA, that is how warped this one is... so I had to use the sound click on the CAPTCHA just to hear the letters to type them in... that was indeed a great nuance...

sweet u pointed that out :P going to try it.. wanna see how many attempt it take for me to recognize the text :P

I wouldn't recommend it at all... I think it would be rather foolish to try to crack the CAPTCHA unless you want to get banned...

i just managed to buy 2 fsps with one security code...although i only had to buy two.

but like i said, the log messages were before the update, so it was common to press enter or buy as fast as you could

i often to this : buy 1 FSP at a time very fast, how? simply, click in the box where i should write the code, write the code and then press enter, and i am buying 1 FSP. i am repeating this step several times, untill i don't have gold or i don't see any FSP. i am not forced to buy all the FSP from one hand. i know sooner or later someone has to place FSP on MP. i just have to be quick. i write the code in les then 1/2 second.


So is it possible to buy 10 or 20 in one sec?


10 or 20 in a second? i don't think so, only if you can buy them in bulk, but 1 by 1, is IMPOSIBLE.

the holding enter trick doesn't work for gold spam(at least not for me), and I don't think it works on the MP

as far as automation being impossible... I'm pretty sure the OCR that came with my scanner in 1997 could recognize those numbers.. if it appears on a monitor, something will be able to read it... that's why EVERY security code I've seen for about a decade has been scrambled with lines through it, that only a human could read.

it's not holding enter, it's pressing enter as fast as you can...and this was before the marketplace change (notice the dates). however, i still managed to do the same thing after...although i bought only 2

it shouldnt have worked because each time the page reloads there is a new code to put in so it should have given u an error message that says u didnt use the right code if u bought them 1 by 1

except the page didn't reload yet...the server acknowledged that i bought the 2 fsps, but the page didn't have time to refresh...

regardless between 1 purchase that was confirmed and the next the code should have changed..

@supmet... I can gold spam just by holding down enter though... if you want you can send me any arbitrary amount of gold and I'll send it back just holding down enter and putting a mug on it or something like that ;)

No it was neither automation nor cheating. Additionally it was semi-public.

is it ok to put 1 in the box and click buy as fast as possible as many times as possible?

I some times will buy 1 fsp, and click buy - buy - buy - buy - buy ... until I'm out of money, this would give a lot of buys before the screen completely loaded and can be done without a bot.


I do the same thing I just keep clicking down the list untill I have sold my 50-100 fsp I was wanting to get gold for, its a pain to keep entering numbers in and then it tell you 1 sold you have to try again, I just keep clicking until I have sold all I wanted to.
