    TZ-UK membership

    Does anyone know how long new membership has been suspended for, or more importantly how long it's likely to continue for? I have a fellow enthusiast who'd like to join up, but despite applying regularly all he gets is the message "Sorry, due to the high number of bogus registration attempts registration has been temporarily disabled by the administrator."

    I don't want to bother the only man who can properly answer with such minutiae, so I was hoping someone may have an idea of when registration is likely to resume?

    It’s been blocked for a few years now hasn’t it? Raffe will know.

    It’s probably all those banned ex members registering 2nd and 3rd usernames.

    Following this for a friend eho had applied as well.
    And he received the same answer.

    I think that Our Host had a lot of work on his hands with those fake accounts! I don’t envy him.

    I suspect our host has rather more on his mind than membership to the forum.

    What's the going rate on the black market for a Grand Master account? It's indisputably wasted on me.

    Not fully blocked, every now and then a new member is admitted, so far ten of them in 2023.

    I got no idea how this works, maybe they are known to the all-seeing eye or customers of Timefactors?

    It's one pound per post, payable per bank transfer.

    I would however require you to pay a small registration fee of £100 first, so I can check the authenticity of your account.
