Disabled registration

Post by Siege »

Hey guys,

Quick update: apparently the wanker types that get off on building spambots to hassle people improved their scripts so they can defeat the anti-spambot registration settings, causing my mailbox to be flooded with registration approval requests (I have to manually ok every new member because of this spambot wankery). I can't deal with this problem atm seeing as I'm mobile on a shoot so just wanted to let you know that as a quick fix new registrations are disabled until further notice.

Cheers,
Siege-

Sorry if I'm not understanding correctly, but does this mean that there are no new registrations full stop, or that Siege has to manually approve them?

I'd just like to be clear on what happens if someone, say for example, shows an interest in Nova Mundi and would like an account here in order to post stuff.

Oh dear, I forgot this was actually a thing...

I've changed some user registration settings, including the Q&A question, and re-enabled user registration. Like before every user must be manually cleared by an admin, i.e. me, but I get e-mails about such things so that shouldn't be a problem. So folks are free to sign up again and should be free to post within a day or two.
