If Party and skins can capture a picture of your desktop...

Then what's the point of the code verification deal? I myself have never even had to use the box, but what's the point if they can capture your screen and see if you are running a bot?

Code verification wont help anything in my opinion. Bot users will just sit by their computer and when they see the box, walk back to the computer and type it in and then resume watching tv.

I really think that having this code box is better than not having it. But party should be more specific in who it pops up for - i.e. players who constantly have 6hr+ sessions, who only play limit, 4 tabling... I just pulled these qualifications out of my butt, but you get the point.

I think it's a false sense of security, honestly. If people are running a bot and making a good sum of money by doing so, why risk it and leave your house while it's running?

I think they should focus more on screen capturing and see what .exe and programs you have running. If anything, like you said, make it somewhat consistent with people they suspect and not just make it a one time thing.

I would agree, especially since many of those captchas (the online code verification thing you are talking about) can be decoded by a bot.

here is a little evidence for those who might not believe me:
