I like how my message to try abandoning captcha entirely came up with a myriad of
complaints how we can be smart, enable new captcha which is unique, etc.
Let's measure the impact.
Could someone kindly please do some metrics on these cases after a user opened an edit
box:
- edit saved without a captcha
- edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, didn't bother entering it and gave up
- edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, attempted to save again without entering it,
gave up
- edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, attempted it once, succeeded
- edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, attempted it once, failed, gave up
- edit attempted to save, faced with captcha, attempted it twice, got it right on second
try, saved the edit
- ... (x3, x4, x5)
As I heard there were some "A/B" tests and such, and I imagine they could be
capable of getting this information.
