Captcha situation


Recommended Posts

Made this account just so I could ask this... Also sorry if this gets long, just want to explain everything I can.

Lately I've started playing this game a lot again (I was a player back in 2013) and now I started farming for money by payday farming with a persian in icefall cave. I like this method because it's very simple and you don't really need to pay attention, which is what tends to happen. Whenever I'm farming I'm usually paying more attention to a video I'm watching on youtube or TV, since the payday farm is very monotonous, which brings me to the "problem". I've already gotten a few close captchas because I wasn't really looking at the game (which isnt difficult to do, just use the movement keys to go right to left, wait to hear persians cry and when I do just click the mousepad button a few times to use pay day - everything goes down in one hit and I make sure I leave the mouse cursor above the "fight"/"pay day" choice)...

After searching for a bit, I couldn't really find a lot of info on these captchas in this game, but from what I gathered, if you mess up, you get banned. I understand that bots or stuff like that can be an issue but if this has happened to me (and I sure as hell am not using anything automatic - unless the game is somehow thinking other programs like Discord or Firefox are malicious, which I doubt) then surely it must be happening to other innocent players as well.

So, I have a few questions. First off, If I were to notice the captcha too late once would I be done for or are you given a second chance (if the banning claim is true)? Second, If I were to get banned because of this situation, could I expect help from the support team (can they recognize bot and non-bot) to get unbanned? I just want to know if it's worth it to keep farming like i've been doing. I'm sure there's ways of getting money a lot quicker but I don't even think I have the resources to pull those off...

Once again, sorry for the big message but just wanted to put the whole context out there, and thanks If you stuck through till the end.

I remember after shiny hunting for 44k encounters then getting what i wanted, afterwards i was getting captcha'd damn near non stop for about 2-3 weeks, this was back in December. I failed a couple because they mangle tf outta those characters :') but i was never banned or suspended for it thankfully. Still obnoxious tho

Keep repeating a certain action, you may be suspected of being a script, but entering the wrong verification code once is not too much of a problem, it will just make you use PAYDAY for a period of time without benefit, but if you enter the wrong verification code many times, you may be mistaken for a script and banned
