Re: Automation prevention: Bank operations

Perhaps besides a simple checkbox which may be able to be bypassed with a script, have a "clue" or question, with a simple answer, and multiple checkboxes to mix it up. Or a simple math problem using the die images at login.

That would be a little more secure than a single checkbox, but be simple enough for anyone able to use numbers on a number-based game to easily use.

The current lock is a great deal more than just a checkbox, under the surface. ;)

Re: Automation prevention: Bank operations

Hard to trigger might also have been because this dummy (me) switched it off. ](*,)
This method is trusted by dropbox and 9gag among numerous others, and if it doesn't work as expected, another solution will be used.

Re: Automation prevention: Bank operations

Big fan of stopping the scripters abilities to mass, raid and farm without actually putting in the effort.

Since implementing the new system, I have seen naq on the server like i've haven't seen.

Love the updated check form. Was and is WAY easier to get through the process but still maintaining a security call to action that will hamper scripting.

Big thanks to Admin and her team :)
