For any webmasters out there , For the love of God ... please stop using Recaptcha! .
In my honest opinion , it is the most annoying pile of useless shite out there. Sure it probably does what it's suppose to , which is to keep bots out , but another thing it accomplishes is to frustrate the living daylights out of your visitors.
When I first started to have to use it to enter sites ect. a few months back , it was fine. It worked and was pretty simple. It could be slightly annoying at times , but mostly it wasn't much of a problem. Then after a little while , the experience slowly degraded over time. No matter what you did , no matter what answers you gave it would just not let you pass. And then when you got so many wrong , it would make tests that just went on and on and on.
So I ended up just avoiding sites that used it all together , as much as possible anyway. Now being back from a super long vacation (travel I should say) I started using it again , and my first thought was ' Thank God they fixed it! ' . It was easy again , no problems , a simple test to let you pass and it just worked. Again , it started to slowly degrade , sometimes it just does not want to let you pass, no matter what you do. Also , just recently it got even worse and took it one step further. Even after you finally passed the Recaptcha test and let you through , for some reason it would pass to the site that you entered an invalid answer. Yes ... thank you ... yet another level of frustration.
So please webmasters ... Can you please find any other alternative to use instead of Recaptcha. I would think it would save your users a lot of frustration.
Just my two cents ... and I'm sticking to it :)
