You know those images with letters and numbers that you are supposed to type when submitting a form to ensure that you are a real person?

What percentage of the time, you get them wrong?

Seems like I get them wrong 50% of the time. Maybe I'm slightly dyslexic or something.

Well, coming from someone who is mildly dyslexic (not that it has anything to do with it) i voted 0-10% of the time.

It all depends on the style of the captcha, e.g. font, angles, background etc. For example i never get the rapidshare one wrong, but the uni.cc one is known for being being insanely hard to read.

Almost 100% of the time haha

I have never got them wrong o.o except once xD And it was like black font with black dots everywhere and o.O Each letter was like mashed together and stuff, all of them were like that I had to e-mail the admin LOL

Only done it a few times!

[albinoAZN]

I've never done it except for when I was signing up at spikedhumor

[bobbobicus]

I nearly always get them wrong first time, sometimes it can go on for about 6-7 attempts.

It depends what site/software it's being used on.

Some are easy to read, some a ridiculously stupid.

I hate the ones where there's letters and numbers upside down in the background. It makes me confuzzled.

He'll eventually get it right. It'd be like five years of mystyping but it'd be possible.

[CAMILLUS]

yeah lol.. u have like 32 million to one of chances you'll get it right

[xXx-Treme]

Umm, I'd say 0-10%, it depends on diferent factors, like mentioned before....

[asiadeep]

I'm also mildly dyslexic so I guess I can put down my errors to it. I always get about 20% wrong meaning out of 5 times I get 1 wrong which really isn't that bad I guess.
