New registrations are suspended for the time being. CF is being swamped with spammers who sign up and then some of them start posting junk on the forum, sometimes in the form of dozens of new threads. I've been deleting them frequently; by way of example when I woke up the other day there had been about 40 new ones who had signed up overnight. We haven't been able to find a way to thwart them yet and I'm not interested in continuing to spend lots of my time deleting them one by one.

We don't get many serious new posters signing up who actually want to post, due to the censorship and marginalization of Caste Football by search engines among other causes, so for now anyone lurking who wants to begin contributing to the site should use the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of the page, give the username and password they want (and it's easy enough to change a password later) and they'll be added manually.

Bummer. As the internet gods have dictated; they will allow your freedom of speech, but deny you freedom of reach. And I’m sure they’ll send plenty of bots your way, as well. It’s a damn shame that very few legitimate new posters will find their way to the site. I even miss the periodic legitimate dissenters who would sign up and debate everybody.
 
I am going to stop dropping the Caste Football URL all over twitter. Curious to see if that brings down the bot traffic that has been coming to the site.
