To add. It MAY, and I stress may, be possible for the mods to manually register users. There was 1 post recently asking about registration that Oldman (at least I think it was Oldman) responded with "PM me" to.Some shit leaked in so they nailed the door shut until the shit could be dealt with. It's neither personal or permanent. You might get more info from the staff but I don't expect them to make a lot of public statements until the situation is resolved.
