Description
The Captcha system was introduced around March 2022 in order to deter illegal Unattended Macroing activity that has been defined in the Terms of Use(Rules). If actions that are being performed by a player meet the systems auto-detecting features, a "Captcha" menu will appear and the player will have 5 attempts within 5 minutes to answer the request. If you fail to provide an answer, the skill that triggered the "Captcha" will no longer be allowed to be used by this player for the next hour. This will be indicated by a debuff incon that will appear on the debuff bar with the time remaining, along with message stating that you have failed and will be punished.
