I believe in this case, it's a system used to determine whether or not the thread creator is an actual human being, or a computer generated bot/system (Which may apply to some of the spammers/advertisers that we get around here, but not all).
We have all used a CAPTCHA before. When you register for a wide variety of things on the internet the last step is usually to enter the letters/numbers that are distorted in a box. Here's an example:
I'm assuming OME6A means to have this system in place and require users to fill it out before submitting a thread. The advantage of this would be to rid the computer generated bots/systems from posting their messages since they are unable to solve/fill the CAPTCHA out.
Hope that helps.
