    I don’t think this is official. But I don’t know why there is no registration option. @Gally ?

    We're all getting blue avatars and Gally has pledged to spend £350m a week on the server.

    Just had a message from a friend saying same, he's based down in Eastleigh. Wasn't there a similar issue in early December?

    Just checked the settings and registration is definitely turned off will check with @Gally if there is a reason for this or if I can just turn it back on - I wasnt aware we had deliberately done this but there may have been a problem with bots that was swamping the board that caused us to turn it off temporarily.

    Could be wrong but wasn’t there a post a few months ago where an admin (I think Gally) said not accepting new?

    Honestly can’t remember, I just vaguely recall (I think) a comment made.
    As I say I could be totally wrong though.

    Somewhere in the back of my mind I remember something similar which is why I haven't just reactivated it. Fairly sure it was never intended to be permanent but it may have been until something got fixed like the "not a robot check". Need to wait for Gally to confirm or otherwise

    Are there a lot of robots wanting to join? And might the board not get charged with anti robot discrimination!?
