ATTENTION: New Forum Accounts Require Approval

General Discussions

Hey there all,

We’ve been getting a flood of new account that then turn around and immediately start spamming the forum. -_-

For the time being newly created accounts will require admin approval before they can post; this should put a stop to the majority of the spam.

We will try and get to these quickly, but it may mean that you’ll have to wait a bit before you can post. We’ll try and keep it to at most a 24hr SLO for account creation.

Thanks all.

This is why we can’t have nice things XD

Just to update, we’ve gone back to not requiring pre-approval, but theres an additional challenge question that should hopefully help. If it becomes a problem, we’ll flip the approval back on
