I'm being forced to do captchas in order to play torn. This has never been a thing before and I don't know why I'm all of a sudden having to do them. I haven't been able to find an announcement about captchas or anything so it seems to be a bug. Thanks for your help.

On the captchas page, there are some FAQ regarding it, which outlines what it is and what may have triggered it, but it's not a bug.
The bothunter captcha is an automatic system that triggers when it detects suspicious, repetitive, or potentially automated activity. We have no control over the checks themselves. Providing you're doing none of these things, then the system will learn as it goes and drop these checks in a couple of days.
