Since when did filling out a CATCHPA slow anyone down?

The only case where this would be sufficient is if you auto-follow. What information do they provide beyond the follower's ability to fill out a CAPTCHA.

I could be wrong. Not sure contacting somebody like TrueTwit through Twitter will be too effective. They likely get zillions of DMs per day.

I can't find where they let you post on their blog. And when I've asked them questions in Email, they always respond. Hmm … I can't find where they let you post on their blog.

But I find that just blocking/reporting spammers quickly keeps these to a minimum and means legit followers don't have to jump through hoops.
