Bot detection

I was wondering what the sites are doing about detecting bots? Anyone know?

Party is using or was using a "Captcha" type program, not sure what exactly sets it off but if you use autoit or autohotkey to set up hotkeys this is probably doing it.

I don't think using these programs to build hotkeys is a problem but Party can't tell for sure what your doing so they hit you with a verification popup every so often.

Things that may set it off
1. cursor not actually touching the buttons(hotkeys)
2. speed at which your play takes place
3. amount of time spent playing without delays or mistakes

There could be many others, again these only apply to autoit or autohotkey, both programs can be scripted to do things as simple as "hotkeys" or as complex as bots(more skill than I have).

Hope that helps
