Default Turning off new registration....

I know Soul D had recommended this eariler to get rid of alot of idiots. I was wondering if the mods were serious because I know myself and a few others are getting sick of these new morons. For instance, just take a look in general discussion....there are like 4 closed threads from newer people who are oblivious. Are the mods going to begin getting stricter or anything to that effect? (i hope no mod feels like i am criticizing them....im not.)

maybe a probationary period where their first x number of posts is monitored and if they screw up they get banned?

Speaking of IP ban I was trying to post at my g/f's house the other day and her IP was banned from drag. Well I could view/browse all the forums, but I couldn't post because her IP was banned.

I wonder what that shit was about. Oh well I'm for this trial user stage because I hate the idiots that have ruined this board.

yeah i agree, that setup seems to work fairly nice. Also they use a reputation system as well I believe.

anyways, just curious if new registration is disabled for a while, or if its just a temporary thing while the mods/admins sort out a new system. I know someone who tried to register today and it wouldn't let him. Just curious how long that will last
