	Annoyed by the Captcha? Sure! Login to avoid it? I am logged in - and I get it anyway! - Is this a bug or a feature? Either this behaviour or this note on the welcome page should be fixed, I think.--[[User:Speckmade\|Speckmade]] 00:22, 15 November 2007 (EST)		Annoyed by the Captcha? Sure! Login to avoid it?

			:I'm not exactly sure how it works, but I think you might still be getting it because you haven't hit some arbitrary number of edits to where MediaWiki will no longer consider you "newly registered". Or are you doing more than just simple page editing (i.e.: moving pages or uploading files) because in those cases, I think anybody but an admin will have to go through a CAPTCHA to prevent spammers and vandals biding their time and pretending to play nice for a few days until they're no longer "newly registered". — <span style="font-family: Kristen ITC, Comic Sans MS;">[[User:Sean Fennel]][[User talk:Sean Fennel\|@]]</span> 22:49, 15 November 2007 (EST)
