Maybe talking to him could alarm him? I mean talking to him not texting him
I could send two guys named Rocco and Fingers to talk to him. Would that help?

Seems like the cap-a-doodle thingy has ramped up in frequency. I'm getting it on nearly every post now.

out of 7 or 8 posts today, I've only had it twice and failed only once  (after three photo-clicking stages)

But I've got the habit of copying my post before posting it.

Ironically I got a captcha the first time I tried to post this.

A (hopefully) helpful FYI. I've managed to bypass most of these captchas by running on Google Chrome with Adblock (and the plus version) installed. It seems to decrease not only the frequency with which one is bombarded by these insufferable things, but also makes it so that when they do appear, you do not have to solve it to continue. It displays a more or less blank page with a 'done' option. Click it and you're all set.

Again, not ideal. Might not work for everyone, but it's saving me some grief, so I thought I'd mention it. Better than nothing, yeah?

Well, damn! Perhaps it isn't adblock's doing. Try this one: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/shut-up/oklfoejikkmejobodofaimigojomlfim?hl=en

It's an extension that blocks comments on websites like youtube, but it's possible the script might also target certain captchas.

I just got a captcha while previewing this post for example and it didn't require me to complete anything. It just gave me a mostly blank page with a "I'm not a robot" button that let me continue on hassle free. The above mentioned extension is the only other thing I can think of that might be having this effect. If that doesn't work, then it's anybody's guess. Wacko

I thought I was, it's just now and then I have these amazing insights that I just have to post - and then it gets me. I managed to get through the previous captcha of a blurred road sign, let's see what happens with this.

^I just made a post and had to deal with 6 captchas before it was let throughAngry Sure I remembered to save the post but it still took me 15 minutes to get through this sh*t. The post took 10 minutes to write - you do the math. 
I have been on somewhat of a break from PA during the last year or so only popping by occasionally, and now that I am drawn back and genuinely want to chit chat and perhaps even do a review or two - this capcha nonsense completely ruins the experience. 
No I will never get used to this (nor fond of it - what have you been smoking José?LOL)

(Now seriously guys, no need to let it eat our inner peace, chill out and let's hope Max deals with it asap, by now he can't ignore our massive discontentment)

That's truly a statement only someone who lives in a country that has decriminalized drugs could've stated LOL

I have learned to "overcome" this nonsense but FOND OF IT?!!!! I can't believe i just read those words Shocked

Patiently waiting for this to be resolved. Some days are buggier than others. THere's is no rhyme or reason to this and there has to be a better way. 

Maybe we just need to train the robots to improve the site instead of attack it LOL
