Hmm, I almost never get that CAPTCHA, and I don't log in to the forum. Could be something else about your profile that Akismet flags: have you tried taking it up with them?
I login here, not with them. They can't tell who I'm logged in here as, I would assume. I can't expect them to make an exception for me if I'm not even logging in with them.
Also, they're a huge, faceless corporation that heuristically targets spammers worldwide, and I don't like the idea of my activity being profiled worldwide.
They do heuristic profiling anyway. They're not supposed to be relied upon as an ultimate authority on who's a spammer. A simple counter for how many captchas solved in a given login is way more reliable than pinging them for the answer every time.
