Captcha

Please consider removing the Google Captcha and/or using a different Captcha provider. It is a real hindrance in posting here.
It doesn't work on the browsers I usually use so I have to open other ones. I'm on a single core CPU so it's very tiring.

Then when using the captcha (when it works), it ALWAYS says "try again" when I select correctly for the first several times. Then after a few failures it accepts my input...

I also know that the captchas are considered a weak measure against spam, even though it does help to an extent.

So please consider a different captcha provider or removal of all of them. Perhaps you could make registration here a more involving process with people having to introduce themselves really properly before being allowed to post? That would maybe solve some problems.
Oh and you already add every post to moderation queue anyway.

Not sure if this is a problem for anyone else, but to me it takes more time to deal with the captcha than write a long post. Ugh.

Now off to the captcha so I can post this.
Yup, took me longer than writing the post and gave me two fails despite perfect input.
