Both ineffective and highly annoying continuously, not just one time
like registration is.   If there's a vote between captcha-any-flavor and
registration, I'll vote for the latter every single time.

I'm with Chisnall - it's doubtful most folks unwilling to register are
about to make a meaningful report.  And it's pretty much the standard
today.  What can you still post on anonymously / no registration that
isn't policed by humans 24/7?  Not much that I can think of.
