    Captcha to log on to forums excessive.

    It took me several attempts to log into the forums because of the captcha garbage. Apparently, having a security token isn't enough to verify that we aren't spam bots anymore.

    Square Enix, please make the login procedure for the forums the 1-time token OR captcha, not both. It's small hassles like this that can add up to lost business.

    Yeah, this forum is the only forum I know where you have to deal with captcha garbage for mistyping your password incorrectly once. It's hell on mobile

    However, you should post this feedback in the appropriate board.

    It only happens if you get your password wrong. After that, it'll reload the screen and ask you to do a Captcha.

    Not a big deal really. Refresh the image until you can get something thats understandable!

    Because you use your SE ID and password, Bots could spam the forum to hack passwords to log into your account.

    It makes since to block it.

    I only relogged like 2 times into the forums, I never log out from trusted PCs

    Yes, cause Captcha issues are SO similar to Titan HM, where you rely on a whole party of people to bring him down as opposed to being able to type in a few random letters because you screwed up your password.

    The new street view style captchas are easy - this a new revenue stream?
