 |
|
I disabled new user registration. It was annoying having to delete spam, and there was nothing more effective to fight it. Anyway, I doubt many people were planning on signing up. But, nonetheless, if you or a loved one wants to invite a person here, let me know so I can enable it for them.
The error message explains to email me at registration@primatechpaper.org to register. I'll probably enable it while we lead up to the Heroes season, but I'll need all of you helping out with SPAM!!! |

| I can understand why you had to do it. When the new season starts, I plan on using banner to promote this site on three different messageboards. |

New people are still allowed to join, I just need to know before hand so I can enable registration. |

Well, when was the last time anyone joined? Probably a long time ago, and even if some non-spam person DOES join, they'd probably leave after posting one thing and never come back anyways.
I think no registration is a good idea, no spam! Plus, it's unlikely that anyone random would find and stick around at these forums when it's been like six months since Heroes been on TV, and a long while until it comes back.
Enabling registration just before Heroes comes back should suffice.

I 100% agree. The bottomline is Heroes hasn't been on TV for a long time and it just makes sense for us to wait until it comes back.

There are only 7 people who post. I hope we can at least reach 10 when Heroes starts in September.  |

Registration has been closed again. A couple of SUPER spammers attacked the site and posted spam on every episode thread. It will be open tomorrow on show day and we'll see what happens then.

Well, I have to say that Clayburn was definitely right to shut down registration, the amount of spam that hits this board is OVERWHELMING!!
And it's really dirty, dirty spam. Mostly XXX rated.

We either get hard core porn or something about mp3. Would that text thing work on this board?
