DJI has been playing on and off with CAPTCHA during Forum Login.
While back CAPTCHA was a matter of picking correct letters from various displayed letters that were scrambled with background and foreground of marks.
Recently CAPTCHA was changed to picking pictures.  Which introduced problem with CAPTCHA in that picking a square exactly as called for, can result in false failure.
Now CAPTCHA has added to picking squares as directed, but changing square you picked which may or may not require that square needing to be picked again.

I am customer, not a %$@$ trained Tic-Tac-Toe pecking Chicken.  Nor am I %$#*@ Monkey in some Lab IQ test.  I have feeling a few others feel same way.


Thus following poll.  Feel free to leave comment(s).
From Poll, I am hoping we can get DJI to at least cut back on some of Present and Recent CAPTCHA picking and pecking.

That may be way it is working for you.  But not for me and three others who have voted.

Here is screen-snap shot of what happens after entering Email, Password, and clicking the Box beside 'I am not a Robot'

Lucky you.

Have a feeling it has something to do with user's Web browser, and web browser's settings.  
Some setup to be secure, some not.

I've seen it but I can't for the life of me remember where.  It could have very well been on the DJI site.

This just disappears in a split second, tick 'I am not a robot' and all good to proceed.

I think it is a good thing as the captcha is there to disrupt automated systems that create accounts (or use hacked customer data) and then spam a board, in some cases until it becomes unusable or impossible to maintain.
So having this in place may well be acting as a good deterrent against those that wish to disrupt because they can.

hahaha. i have dealt with google doing captcha poorly too..  i should have recorded or screenshotted it.  it was so bad!!!  asked me to pick all the images dictating a bridge, it was close up shot of a bridge same bridge across all of the images.. it kept failing me, reverted to storefront, its close up of a store front.. &^$%&$&  like wtf.   tried again, asked me to pick all the images with signs in it, it was a street full of signs in every square.. it kept failing me..like wtf?

so ya, please get rid of picture matching captcha..they are prone to being a broken mess sometimes

Started for me when spark was released last year, I still find on day they’re looking for letters next day looking for pictures also depends if your signing from pc or tablet or phone. I don’t like it and find it a pain.

Beats me... I've had to log on exactly 3 times in the past year.  One when I got my MP last June and loaded Go4 on my phone for the first time.  Then the second time was when I logged in with my home computer to the forum.  And the third time was after everyone was going ballistic about having to log into Go4 EVERY time so I logged off, then logged back in to see what the deal was.  Other than those first three initial times, I've NEVER had to log in.  And that includes many times out side of cell range of ANYTHING..

CAPTCHA would not be so bad if it weren't for Gray areas which may or may not go against your choice.
For exampe: Edge of a Sign (before you get to border) is not meant to be Picked even though instructions say to pick every square that has Sign(s).
Worst CAPTCHA I have ever seen was one you had to pick the narrow punched steel post the Sign(s) were mounted on.   (Another website, where CAPTCHAs would frequently repeat.)

Picking Letters and/or Numbers are not to bad, until moron behind CAPTCHAs starts mixing in easily confused symbols like o0O, along rotating symbols from -60 to 60 degree angles.  Throw in background colors similar to font colors, and multiple chicken scratch overlays; and person who made those choices can Go Fly a Kite, and not a Drone.

the reason for Captcha is to prevent spam bots and stuff like that.  and they are getting more and more sophisticated at recognizing things..

so captcha has to get more ridiculous, the problem is a occasionally it doesn't just stop at ridiculous and goes full retard instead... and goes from making some sense into making absolutely no sense and becoming impossible because whatever trained the system must be cross eyed or blind or something..

image recognition derps:  

signs are legit the worst, its 50/50 chance you need to include fringes and posts its attached to.

store fronts tend to be second worst in my experience, whoever trained it on store fronts isn't the brightest bulb availble, let's put it that way.   there is occasionally times where it just fails you even if you nailed it..

and anything large tend to be poorly identified too, such as bridges, traffic lights, macro shots consuming entire grid, etc etc.

AlphaNumeric i also hate.. because always rotating or filled with junk to the point where i can't tell if its O, 0 or Q for example..

the most effective bot traps tend to be contextual questions that require humans...  like "enter your age minus 1 year:" or "select the drones registered to your account" "verify your location" "enter your last name".  etc etc.   and based on what you put into profile already it will know the answer behind the scenes, very simple system.  also contextual questions based on information in your profile help limit/block hijacked accounts because usually they wont know the answer..

"Picking Letters and/or Numbers are not to bad"

True but even then I've had to do it numerous times before I'm allowed to continue.  There has to be a better security method than what these companies use now.

Yes, you need to proof you are not robot when logon forum in PC. Funny IQ test. How can they verify the more smarter AI later?

Can't find article.  But I read where SPAM bots are passing some of CAPTCHA tests.

As for Spammers, when they encounter a CAPTCHA test that their SPAM bots can't sufficiently beat, they are paying humans (very poor ones) to beat CAPTCHA test so their SPAM bots can go on Spamming.

Solution is to go after Spammers, for some reason drone strikes come to mind...

I just wonder, sometimes, on my phone it needs 10-20 of these to log in.
It starts with street signs and moves to reloads of cars , shop fronts, busses.
And the reloads are so horrible slow.
Safety is nice to have. But needing 5 minutes to log in?
Come on DJI, you can do better!

RC remote for mini 3 pro asks for login. When you put email and then password it asked for Captcha. Problem is it doesn’t show an image with the code on. What the hell do I do?
