since Monday evening it's been like this and conversed about through bread after bread.
Significant change in the bot behavior, and though shills deny it, the new policy has cut down significantly on shit-posting bot-script aided shilling.
Bully bot and sidekick hold you to an impossible standard side kick bot seems missing. The roboposting os some of the more vile hate-spam are gone.
post counts in the 100's range (which are usually blocked and delted so you only see them if you are in the bread as they happen) no longer occur.
and it's been a slide for 4 days now.
I can't speak but for myself and I say 'this is a good policy'.
so that's the abridged story about the captcha requirement here.
