Every time I log back into the forums I gotta go through 2 captcha's minimum. It's aggravating. The worst by far was 8 buses, 3 boats, an airplane, followed by yet another 2 buses.
When the day becomes the night and the sky becomes the sea, when the clock strikes heavy and there’s no time for tea; and in our darkest hour, before my final rhyme, she will come back home to Wonderland and turn back the hands of time.

Every time I visit the RS main homepage/news articles/forums or ANYTHING here on the RuneScape website I'm bombarded with bot verifications and it's extremely annoying and makes absolutely no logical sense on why i have to constantly verify the same browser over and over and over and over again!! I'll literally visit one news article and have to verify myself there and then i click a link in that article and guess what? gotta verify there as well ... oh you just simply wanted to go to the front page of RS? you must be a bot so VERIFY .. like dude this is out of hand Everything you've ever wanted is hidden behind fear.

Kind of like they got tired of dealing with bots so they assume every visitor is acting maliciously now lol.

They have to know this is a problem that needs adressing.

Every single time I want to log into the forums, I have to go through 2 of these, whether on my PC or phone.... it drives me insane so much... :@

I've just gone through 4 sets of busses.

The 2nd set failed me somehow after I selected all 3. Unless it thought the airbus was a bus.. :| Life is like a camera: Just focus on what's important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives, and if things don't work out, take another shot !

It's really interesting that some people have these problems.

I regularly use two different desktops to access the RS website; both have Firefox, along with a set of security add-ons (uBlock Origin, Malwarebytes browser extension, NoScript). I also delete cookies on browser closure.

And yet I'm only being asked to do a CAPTCHA about once every 10 days or so.

One thing I have done however is remove AdBlock Plus, as this was interfering with another blocker specifically for Facebook. I wonder if this might be causing some issues for other folks?
