The issue seems that one has to wait to solve the captcha. If you
solve it within 15 seconds or so then the web site think's you
are flooding. The time measuring should start after we solve the
captcha successfully not before as it results in preventing quick
solves from actually sending any messages. It will still prevent
flooding because it will be in play for the next message, but it
shouldn't be in play for the first message one sends since it
prevents real users from posting normally.
