i'm grinding for food in the training grounds and tried to just speed click through it since its not worth the time and now i just flat out can't use the coliseum for the moment? it says i have to wait to solve more captchas? this is.... unnecessary

It's not a mini-game so i'm not really sure what you're wanting.

THe point of it is to prevent botting since bots wouldn't be able to solve it. Making it optional would completely destroy the very point of having it in the first place. Rapid clicking through it makes the system believe you are a threat or possible bot so it locks you out. That's your own fault especially if you're actively trying to do it wrong.

While many agree it can be difficult due to the visuals it's not really something that can be tossed aside because you find the rewards unworthy.

The bonuses that it gives are just that. Bonuses to help make it less tedious.

So no support on this.

Support for better rewards maybe but making the captcha optional makes it worthless as a captcha

Edit: Rereding this later I feel like I came off a bit harsher then I intended to so I just wanted to apologize for that. Not good at being gentle with this sorta stuff, whoops

As Alphasobek said, the entire point of the captchas is to prevent botting. The rewards were added to make it more palpable (which is debateable if it does). Until botting stops being a problem (hint, it never will), then the captcha needs to stay because botting can absolutely ruin a game.

I'd opt to make the bonuses worthwhile. A one-time INT boost does nothing for me. A captcha often takes as much time as a battle so I feel it should also double the next battle's loot by default- just the one battle. I don't think that would be a game breaker

i'd support making them less frequent (especially stacking, for example if you solve a certain number correctly in a row then your chances of receiving another captcha decrease a little) and/or making the rewards a little more appealing.

a popular suggestion i've seen is a boost in item drop rates for that battle instead of a stat boost. considering most people nowadays are using the coliseum either for farming or exalting, a drop boost would be way more useful.

I've seen (and made) several suggestions regarding how to make the camping screens more human-friendly and the rewards more worthwhile/versatile. Lots of good ideas out there.

If the assumption made by OP of this thread (that camping is a desirable perk rather than a necessary anti-botting measure) is at all common, though, it might be worth making that clearer as well. The caption on the camping screen itself doesn't say anything about it - you'd have to seek out the announcement thread for the revamp to find out why it exists, which a player who joined after that wouldn't even know to do.

Yeah, that's FR for you. Force something on all of us to prevent a small percentage of botters...

It shows up every four-five battles, sometimes more and that's way too often. Add bad eye-sight to it and it makes the Coliseum unusable for some of us.

They talked about reducing the amount of times it pops up after complaints during Beta testing but nothing ever changed and considering this game's track-record of listening to it's userbase, I'm not holding my breath :)

It's not a game OP, its a captcha to prevent bots.
That being said, I keep hearing people saying they're getting it every 4-5 battles, and I've actually counted on my end and I get them every 15-20. If the people who get them so frequently can prove it via video or something, that's a rather major discrepancy that I feel should be bought up to staff. I still think every 15-20 is too much, around every 50 battles would probably be a little less of a hassle. I can't imagine the aggravation for the poor people getting them every 4-5 battles.

Unnamed dragons need love too! There is no shame in having unnamed permas, having dragons with unnamed parents and/or offspring, or exalting unnamed dragons! Leaving dragons unnamed is a perfectly valid playstyle!
