Change the Recaptcha!

Stop using the annoying Google Recaptcha and make your own. It doesn't work for me on chrome 80% of the time and I'm forced to refresh over and over. It's annoying because I already have a long secure password with special characters, and then having to type a recaptcha correct, then be told that it's incorrect, and then having to repeat the entire process. I can't stand it. Give me an option to disable it for my ip or something, or create some account armor that I can disable. I feel rather insulted as well by recaptchas. Prove my humanity? You gotta kidding me. I'm being treated as if I'm a scum robot.

I understand Riot is trying to provide account safety, but Jemiloll is right (about the Recapthca only). I can't read them 80% of the time. What looks like an 'm' turns out to be 'rn'. I can't stand Recaptcha. Maybe put questions that only a human would know, maybe League related, but simple enough to answer, for example:
Who is the Might of Demacia? - Answer: Garen or garen (case sensitivity is insensitive)
What is the lowest division in League of Legends? - Answer: Bronze or bronze
What is the maximum number of players on a team on Twisted Treeline? - Answer: 3 or Three or three

Questions like that are easy enough for all League players to solve without having to try and answer it three different times like a Recaptcha.

I really like that idea, maybe it can be as simple as showing pictures of a champion / item / summoner spell. Players really would have an advantage here for ease.

Do you think you're the only one? We ALL have to deal with this when we log in and personally, I don't find it annoying. Then again I don't have an annoyingly long password. All I can say is either make your password shorter, don't log out, or use a different browser. My browser of choice for the forums is FireFox. Doesn't take up a lot of internet when I'm using my Xbox and need to Google something.

Although, if you feel like you're being treated like a "scum" robot, then you probably are one. After all, a robot can't be scum since it short-circuits when it touches water.
