I really have no idea,
I tried to copy and paste those links and indeed they trigger

Not sure if recaptcha is so weak or indeed it is a human
posting those links %)
It costs 0.1 cent ($0.001) to have a human solve a reCAPTCHA.
I will look into methods used in this forum and vibe.d forum.
For forum.dlang.org and wiki.dlang.org I created DCaptcha,
which asks a D programming question:
https://github.com/CyberShadow/dcaptcha
It is only activated if Akismet or other spam detectors report
"spam". It used to have many questions of various difficulty,
but currently it only asks 1 type of question. So far this
blocked 100% of spam.
AFAIK vibe.d forum uses a Bayesian filter which IIRC generally
works well but had to be tweaked once or twice. This could work
well for DPaste if it's trained to distinguish D code from
not-code.
Nice,
I've tried your idea (somehow). Lets see if it helps.
Anyways:
* I've implemented better captcha mechanism + blocking system.
If you fail captcha for 3 times in a row - pasting will be
disabled for 15 minutes.
* I've fixed registration with GitHub, Facebook and internal
database (captcha wasn't working there and api keys expired for
those services)
The next step will be improving Backend itself so I will get rid
of errors when running examples on main dlang page.
Also @Vladimir, thanks for the pull request regarding examples
and for making me a "watcher" in dpaste related issues on
bugzilla.
Best regards,
Damian Ziemba
