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.
