Steps:
- Ensure you are logged out of EE.
- With JavaScript enabled on your browser, go to http://www.earthempires.com
- Login using the Log In directly under the EE logo
- Enter into whatever server you have a country for... let's say Alliance.
- If no Captcha appears (it may not depending on how you last logged in), log out of EE.
- This time, log in from http://www.earthempires.com/login or http://www.earthempires.com/login?error=7
- Again attempt to enter the same server as before.
- The captcha will appear even though you are using the same browser, and haven't changed any settings.

- Looking at the POSTed content for each case should show you why this is happening.

Fix:
- Be consistent, and because you've recently changed the login to the longer post content, I'd recommend going that way with it.

ah crap i forgot there were two login things when i was modifying stuff; good catch =/

hm I think I noticed this through mobile to actual computer? forcdd to captcha twice in twenty minutes? or different?..

Any logins on change of devices requires a captcha now.

ah, missed that. thanks.

Ahh damn. So this is the reason why I have to type this captcha thing when I play at home.

nope, reason is that cause some used irc-scripts to wall so that captcha was added to make that more difficult.
