A CAPTCHA? In a forum for Hackers? Hmm ... interesting ... ADDED IN EDIT: HN voting makes me laugh sometimes - I have no idea why this got a downvote. Thank you - made my day. This is not, let me hasten to add, a request for more. Some things are funny just the once. More than that and I'll really start to question my understanding of the world, let alone just the HN community.

It'd be an interesting challenge...

If there's CAPTCHA, then submit an app that collects these images and sends them to your phone. Send back the answer to help the bot.

  That would at least slow down the bots based on how attentive the maintainers are. There are of course captcha solving services but this just trades maintainer time for money - trying to run a successful karma hoarding bot would still be death by a thousand papercuts.
