Replying to this, because on SO I don't have enough reputation to reply and say how annoying it is, or describe how the duplicate is different and/or unhelpful. I get that it's probably the only way to prevent spam comments on a large scale etc, but when see I need to ask 5 questions just to comment on the ones I care about, I don't even bother.
