Occasionally my client is getting the Incorrect CAPTCHA code message so I want to relax the captcha a little (at the risk of a bit of spam), but I am not clear on what this means:

1.0 is very likely a good interaction, 0.0 is very likely a bot

It is on 0.5 currently, do I decrease or increase the number?

Thanks  
Dave

If you decrease the number, you lower the threshold, so it’s easier to “pass the test”

Currently, you need at least a score of 0.5 to be deemed a normal user. If you want to relax it, you need to lower the threshold more towards the “I’m really a bot” threshold.

Thanks @mnakalay I thought that would probably be the case, but wanted to check.
