Have you heard of this? - RoCaptcha

Postby Daniel » 21 Aug 2014, 04:44

While I was setting up my forum within the first week I started to notice rather strange registrations and low and behold some of them were spam bots, I deleted them and decided to research better ways of keeping them at bay.

Well one of the ways I decided to keep them away was via a small bit of javascript within the registration page that would trip up certain types of spam bots but not affect normal users at all.

Then I also came across a type of captcha that I had never seen before called RoCaptcha, yes RoCaptcha that isn't a typo :P

It is where the user has to rotate the image displayed to an upright position! It is fast and easy for your average user :D

http://rocaptcha.com if you wanna check it out youself :D

That's an interesting one and I had not seen it before. Are all their rotation images of cats?

Did you find it user-friendly and relatively straightforward to install on your own forum Daniel?

I too have not seen this, I have seen some captcha where we need to arrange some broken image parts and make a complete image, but this is also very good.
But, it seems this is new and we still do not know how easy it is easy to use, but it deserve a try atleast.

I too have not seen this before but I quite like it. I think anything that protects your site that doesn't require users to decipher really blurry or obscured images to try and guess the characters is a great idea. The old style text CAPTCHAs requiring users to enter the letters and numbers tend not to work aswell nowadays, not easy for users with failing eyesight and in some cases bots have a better success rate than humans. There are alot of these different and more unique styles of CAPCHAs which do offer a more user friendly alternative while still being effective.

Hi Friends,

I have seen some where in the net itself the new Captcha said by Daniel RoCaptcha, we have to roll the Captcha to some extent to view the correct picture.

Well, you took the words right out of my mouth. I often have trouble deciphering the text based Captchas and have to keep refreshing over and over until I get one that I can make out. They are annoying.

I hadn't heard of this one either, but I have seen the type mentioned above. The one where the image is in pieces, and it's like putting together a little puzzle. I think this rotating one sounds interesting. I hope it is straightforward, where users can easily tell what they are supposed to do with it.

Aha. It is interested. I hate typing capcha when sign up or log in in some sites. So this is a best way for all sites.

I've never tried because I believe that the best service is reCAPTCHA of Google.

I've never seen this one before , but I've seen similar ones. Also I think it is better to use some popular ones but if you like that one and are feeling comfortable with it use it then :)
