I just tried to post a reply to Dicebot on the announce subforum through the web ui and I got a reCAPTCHA (first time ever) and I could not pass the CAPTCHA, and I tried several times. Did something change in the spam filter? Has anyone else had problems with the reCAPTCHA? Is there something messed up with my account? I have tried on Firefox and Chromium (Linux, no flash; FF has JS blocked for dlang.org). I don't know if I'll be able to reply to this ='(

Once it triggers, only option is to wait expiration time (30min+) until posting without reCAPTCHA is allowed again :( But it has happened so rare that I kept forgetting to report it to CyberShadow.

This raises a flag that I need to solve a captcha to continue. I have *never* been able to solve it. Worst yet, I usually can't post anything until it is solved, so I usually have to restart my browser and/or delete my cookies.I just tried to post a reply to Dicebot on the announce subforum through the web ui and I got a reCAPTCHA (first time ever) and I could not pass the CAPTCHA, and I tried several times.

The duplicate submission detection feature interacted with the CAPTCHA code in a bad way, creating a bug where if you failed the first CAPTCHA, all your subsequent tries would also "fail" (it would redirect to the result of your first failure). You'd need to change something in your post to get around it. Should be fixed now.
