Increase captcha threshold for post editing
Look again at increasing the captcha threshold for post editing

While 1K rep is not really high, I would think that it would be sufficient to avoid the robot checks on StackOverflow.

Privileges does not seem to have any mention of robot checks.

I don't mind it too much, but on the other hand I really see no reason why I should be robot-checked.

Captcha checks are never eliminated, in case a spammer gains control of your account; even moderators get captcha checks if they do things too quickly. They are suppressed for 5 minutes after completing one if you have at least 200 rep, and reduced quite a bit when you hit 10k, but they never go away
