It's a right-wing plot to destroy the prog community (they saw the words 'progressive' and 'rock' and freaked-out)

Right address, wrong theory. I think this was imposed on M@X due to a design discussed at 2015's Bilderberg meeting which was attended by three bigwigs from Google.

Same here but editing posts on the iPad is a pain in the arse, and when you're a dyslexic who makes word-errors that need correcting in practically every sentence I type that's a mighty big arse.
What?

He was last seen here on 19 January, more than 9 weeks before those CrAPTCHA's appeared.

^ He's put reviews up since then, I'm sure. Maybe he doesn't frequent the forums much. Hope he's fine.

No, his last review was from before even then, on the 15th of January for the recent Promenade album. Really hope he's OK, he's absolutely one of the most valued members of the site and a damn good fella, plus the front page could always do with more of his reviews.

Yes, but one of his last statements was about how he "couldn't post or do anything here" (paraphrasing) because he kept getting error messages on everything he tried. 

Capthchas aren't the only frustration.  The site has performed like sh*t for a while before them.

^Agreed. I remember a time, sometime before the captcha's, when the site was hardly reachable.

^
You can read his comments about the site, in the first paragraph of his final review.  John was the first guy on PA to write to me as a friend when I started here.  He was a great ambassador for the site.

Not pissed off, just obviously frustrated enough to call it a day here since January.
