Nick, do you know what the status is when it comes to registering a profile here? Is it Emiliano who still does all the approvals, or can the global moderators do so too? I aks because a friend (who was at one point a member of the old forum) told me he tried to join, but wasn't able to and wonders what he needs to do in order to be able to register and post here...
They need to be approved by Emiliano.
I previously asked him if he was still approving new members as I don't think we have had anybody new join since Emiliano left and he told me yes, but that there hadn't been any new applicants who met the criteria, which I find rather hard to believe. I also asked if it was possible for global moderators to add new members, with the aim of lessening his responsibilities, but he said no.
I would recommend sending him an email explaining the situation and maybe suggest that the criteria for joining should maybe not be so strict, as some new blood would definitely be of benefit to the forum.
