Remove the Captcha for login

Hello. I think its odd that there needs to be a captcha just to login. I understand why you should have one on account creation, but its so annoying to have to select the cars and street signs every time I login. And its also annoying I have to login every time even though I have keep me logged in checked. It's just a small thing but it would actually make this website better.

The stay logged in check box works for me though.
Then release a security key app on mobile and use that. But captcha doesnt do much. If a bot got past the account creation captcha, it can get past the login one. And if a person hacks your account a capatcha will do nothing to stop them.
Bots don't create accounts, people do. So captcha means nothing there.
However once person has made an account, then he configures bot to periodically log in and spamm. So Captcha does help there!
Because now the person needs to log himself every time he wants to spam, bot can't do this for him anymore.
login CAPTCHA + auto log off timer = the way to combat spam bots.
One of the better systems I saw in place was only allowing a single character deletion per day. People bitched and moaned that they weren't "able to customize my character over and over the way I want before I enter the game. I want to be able to log in, see the character, then log out, delete, then create another!" They started the limitation, and guess what? The spam dropped to miniscule levels once the gold spammers were not able to create characters over and over, spam their macro, then delete the character before the account could be tracked.
I'm constantly in on 4 devices.
Maybe I re-log in once per week on one of the devices.
I'm not sure what's causing someone to have to frequently re-log.
Captchas are quick, so, doesn't bother me at all.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Good morning,
I have moved this thread to customer support queue. The captcha is a layer of security by design. The requirement to login each time might have to do with browser cache. I personally have not had an issue once I selected the keep me logged in box. Are you clearing history or cookies at close of browser?
