I frustratingly looked up Blogger Captcha on google, wondering why the hell they even have it, and found your blog. Most of the time if I see a blogger page I don't even comment because I hate writing a big comment, only to face some broken captcha system which never lets you post anything. <br /><br />Good to see you have it off! If only everyone on Blogger was as thoughtful as you! The interesting thing about captcha is that even though it's designed for humans to to pass, and computers to fail, the very computers that aren't supposed to be able to bypass captcha already know the answers. If they didn't, how could they asses whether or not YOU got it right? <br /><br />Mind melting right!? I wrote an essay on captcha sometime last year, if you'd like to read it you can see it here <br />http://endofthegame.net/2011/10/03/humans-and-computers-are-you-a-bot/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-919894200039153342.post-32062718030496269112011-06-20T07:00:12.045-07:002011-06-20T07:00:12.045-07:00People have been emailing me saying they haven'...People have been emailing me saying they haven't been able to post comments on my blog. I've just turned off capture and got my first scammer comment. I think I might fill in a captcha 4-5 times a day at least, I'm not sad to see it go.Tyson Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04005029021630971100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-919894200039153342.post-741395747773590642011-06-16T15:39:53.306-07:002011-06-16T15:39:53.306-07:00Oh Brilliant!

I always forget to wait for the captcha and close the tab and then lose the comment.<br /><br />I disabled them on my blog and so far none of the spam I've gotten has made it onto the blog.
