Signups Temporarily Disabled

Due to a recent spate of fraudulent signups, we’ve temporarily disabled new account creation on the BAR. Until further notice, new accounts must be set up by a moderator, and only after being contacted inworld.

We may revert to our old account creation policy in the future, if we can be assured that the fraudsters will behave in a civilized manner.

In other news, we’ve made some changes to our configuration that may speed things up. Please comment here if you notice that things are indeed faster (or slower) than you remember, or if any problems crop up.

    Will do a search through Drupals website to see if we can get a more secure register user setup.

    Seems to be loading faster for me as well… from 3 minutes down to about 10 seconds.  Always had a problem when loading the BAR for the first time, after its initial load it works perfect though.

    It looks as though bot signers have hooked on to this site, probably because of all the new content that gets posted, it would explain all the fake sign-ups.
