Forum Self-Registration turned OFF
« on: October 27, 2012, 05:50:23 pm »
Hey folks!

Because of the absurd number of bots trying to register in the forums every day (about 200 every day), and because we have to manually dismiss/reject the bots' registration attempts, I have turned off the ability for people/bots to just come in and apply for a forum account.

From now on (or until captcha or whatever it's called becomes bot-proof again), if anyone wants to register in the forums, they need to contact one of the admins in Lismore and say what username they want to have and what e-mail address they want to register under.
