Title: Can't register at morphzone.org
Post by: -BobW- on January 14, 2011, 08:06:28 PM: Anyone know whats going on at morphzone.org? I've been trying to register for a couple weeks but I get a message that says "Sorry, we currently aren't taking any registrations..."

I recently registered my copy of MorphOS and I'd like to participate in the site.

Anyone else having problems registering at Morphzone.org?

You might want try visiting #morphos and ask your question there. I also see Golem started a thread about it on MorphZone.org, so watch that a well.

doubt many moderators get a big paycheck, with few spearcatchers hoping
to land the job!
Cheers :)

There are others of course. I would gladly help with registrations but I don't have rights to do so. This has never been a problem before so bare with us.

MorphZone is currently being to moved to a different forum software which is why the registrations had been disabled in the first place. As the process is taking longer than anticipated, it does make sense to enable it again for the time being.

Something still seems to be wrong. I get the following message:

"The verification text does not match, please confirm it"

I've tried from multiple browsers on a couple different machines. I get the same verification string each time and no matter how I enter it I get the same result.
