How many people would (or should!) spend over ten minutes trying to log into a web forum?

Only those that need to remain anonymous so they can scam...

Like satoshi (who always used tor)? Roll Eyes

Exactly. He was worried what he was doing may be illegal, so he hid himself.

Why privacy? See also my .sig: ...Because I do nothing wrong, I have nothing to show. (And why are you even using Bitcoin, if you think that what Satoshi did may be illegal? You are not a mind-reader; your supposition of Satoshis motives says nothing about him, and everything about you. Do you believe that Bitcoin be illegal?) But your deliberately insulting flamebait is off-topic.

theymos has never been anything but supportive of legitimate Tor users. The question here is not pro-/anti-Tor. There is some sort of real problem with abuse, not specific to Tor. A CAPTCHA was added to the login page for all users, to prevent this abuse. But this traded one problem for another, because Google hates Tor users. They pretend not to, but they really do; I speak from long experience of having used the Internet exclusively through Tor, for years. Google search itself followed a similar pattern: First, they CAPTCHAed Tor users; and then, they replied with an automated queries accusation against even Tor users who could solve CAPTCHA; and that is where it stands. Googles flagship product gives an endless CAPTCHA loop, which wholly prevents it from being used through Tor.

I desire to solve the problem constructivelyand meanwhile, to provide user reports documenting the severity of the problem. Lets please focus on that.
