They shouldn’t need to add an explicit visible captcha. Our behaviour moving through the game should provide enough data to define an invisible test with no warning about when it’s running or what exactly it’s looking for.
(I’ve tended to assume something like this already exists, it’s just that it’s a never ending arms race between automated detection and evasion)
I buy tokens so I am not a valid comparison. I just love being able to do two primary professions even if they need gathered reagents. I always do alchemy if I can, but now I can do another thing as well.
But again, you make a solid point and it’s well taken!
