The Evil Genius Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Question..would requiring a captcha to add items like this to your cart foil the bots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the PS5 reddit some people are saying they got stuck in Captcha hell trying to check out. So I think it foiled people more than bots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Excuses Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Instead of thousands of people fighting it out with the refresh button, what is the problem with just having a waitlist system? I'd happily add my shipping and billing information. Take the money out of my account in advance. Give me an approximate delivery date over the next few months and be done with it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes work on their end. They don't want work. All they have to do is throw the consoles on their sites and get thousands of hits in a matter of minutes and they sell em all anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDawg Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) On the PS5 reddit... every time I see someone post "LOOK WHAT CAME IN THE MAIL TODAY!" Or "IT'S FINALLY HERE" I get irrationally angry. We get it. You got one. We don't know who you are and none of us care. Good for you though. I'd be happy for you if I wasn't trapped in an endless time loop like I had the time stone and I was fighting Dormammu and getting my ass kicked repeatedly for a century.

“Misdirection” Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Probably less about the work and more that outrage generates clicks and views. I started thinking hey what if I add other stuff to my cart maybe I’ll get through. but in Twitter if Walmart is trending, it served its purpose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COWBOY-KILLA- Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) Nada for me either at Walmart and GameStop. Smh. This is beyond frustrating. Wack. My kids don’t get it. Every time they see me, did you get it? Lol. Sorry kiddos struck out again. My Brother In law is gonna try and set up the Bot @purbeastsent. He’s in IT..we’ll see if he can figure it out, I sure as hell couldnt. Lol. I feel helpless, lol. This is silly. And the fact I can’t get it makes me want to just plow through this anguish, and achieve the goal.
