...The point is you can easily use other directory scripts and not be a victim of spam. And you can do this without using captcha....

The thread is about whether any other directory scripts have taken measures to prevent spam and whether directory owners and script owners do enough to take preventative action. It wasn't aimed at people who don't get spammed but more at the majority who do.
You make a good point about captcha possibly being a hurdle for directory submittors, I agree, and knowing the directory arena as I do, we took that into consideration, you can turn off the captcha entirely if you wish and if needed turn it back on again at the click of a button, I do believe you may not be getting any spam due to you not allowing free listings, and good for you if you are spam free, but I believe you are in the minority at present.
It would be unfair to steer this thread away from the primary question which is aimed at those who DO get spammed, the question is,
'has there been enough done to prevent the amount of spamming in directories, and can we do more?'
