I hate to break it to you mk, but I'm doing my insomnia aided spam filtering right now and it looks like some of the bots (like this bum here) have been able to bypass the captcha. Might I make a suggestion that might help? What if you implemented a control that limits a person to one post an hour, and maybe x comments an hour, until they've had one full hubwheel filled up. That would definitely take care some of the more aggressive bots, like the one I just linked to.
