Thanks to spammers from all over the world and the crappy forums software we are running, I have had to disable the new account registration for the forums until further notice.

  I realize this means that nobody can register and join us in the fun, but until I can either implement a validation solution or find new software, I have to do this.  I have been getting 25-30 new accounts each day that are nothing more than link spam and I am tired of trying to keep up.

The problem comes from the fact that XMB forums does not natively have the image validation we had in place until the last upgrade, and the person who made the mod to put it in hasn't released an update for the new version.  Until I can get that in, I am going to have to stop the registrations.

Sorry for the inconvience.  Blame it on the spammers.

Thanks to some very nice coders in the XMB community (FanForum specifically) we are back online!

Tell your friends we are out here and to come register and be a part of the action since SOME people (jolly) haven't been real active in a while.
