Hi Candy,
The captcha is for newer members until they reach a certain point level (I want to say 50,000). It's primarily there there to prevent spam profiles that join the community from leaving comments.

Member support gave you the definitive answer. We had a very bad issue with spammer comments last year, hence the new precautions.

Reach the necessary points needed to make that disappear! Yes, it is a PITA for you however it helps the overall community by reducing the number of spam comments.
Hang in there CANDACE (Candy) STEVENS

This is the 'lesser pain' of continuouss effortto combat spam bots and the incondiserate. Today AR experience for users is much more pleasant than the pages and pages of spam in which we all waded through.
It is unfortunate that the 'ill behaved' does make life more frustrating for us all.

I think it's a point level, but if keep commenting and posting regularly I think it will go away.

It has been a while since I have seen a complaint about spammers. Captcha must be working!

It is hard to believe that robots are so aggresive that they need outing?
