To stop someone using a computer program to brute force (lol) your password on the internet so they can hack you ingame.

I think its rather used to stop spam, but if somebody can "brute force" it then your password sucks.

Also look at www.hotmail.com and do you see any captcha? Nope, it starts to display once you fail your password about 5 times.

the ss2 website indeed doesnt use a captcha and instead ban the ip temporarily if it miss too many logins, but in the meantime, the captcha was the fastest way to plug in that security hole

Yes, Captcha is more successful at keeping legitimate players out than it should be.

Please replace it with something more user friendly.

Bageese, you don't need to enter that equation.

Substitute that equation with a Space " " and then write the captcha "attenge". The way it works is that it only detects the one with the inkspot, and that you put something in for the other word.

Being a 4chan'er has it's benefits.
