[lojban] No more CAPTCHAs in the Wiki for verified users, please!



Oh my gosh, whoever set up the CAPTCHA system in the Lojban Media Wiki
<http://mw.lojban.org/> must be a sinister person. Seriously, you are
torturing me! ;-)

I can understand that you have to have a CAPTCHA system to keep the
bots out but why, oh why do you have to force a CAPTCHA for _every
single fucking edit_ for _registered_ users who have proven a thausand
times that they’re human? Editing the wiki is not fun this way. :-(

Please change the CAPTCHA policy of the wiki. I suggest to use the
CAPTCHA only for unregistered users and in the registration process
itself. Still some bots may slip through so you could build in a human
verification. New registered users are considered “unverified” until a
human gives the OK. In “unverified” state, CAPTCHAs still have to be
solved but after this state has been lifted, no more CAPTCHAs. Bots may
outsmart CAPTCHAs but not humans.
