    Hi everybody,

    As highlighted within the announcement, we have temporarily suspended the full membership application system whilst it undergoes a period of updating and improving.

    We anticipate that it will be up again within the next week.

    Any questions, please feel free to ask below.

    Thanks,

    Martin.

    I'm highly doubting this, but will everyone with a full membership have it taken away?

    Nope, this just affects regular members that want to put in an application. So, current full members are good :slight_smile:

    Re: Full Membership Applications temporarily suspended

    What about those of us who submitted an application within the last week? Will we have to do it again?

    If you already have an application in you will not need to submit a new one :slight_smile:

    Re: Full Membership Applications temporarily suspended

    Just to restate a couple important points:

    -- There is zero impact on anyone who is currently a full member. Whatever privileges you have now will not change as a result of this action.

    -- Anyone who has previously submitted a full member application that has not been responded to yet will have that application reviewed and processed (though it may take some time to get a response.

    -- Once we address the bottleneck in reviewing and processing full member applications, we will be able to re-open the full-member application process. This will probably be on the order of weeks rather than months, but we don't have a specific timeframe yet.

    Re: Full Membership Applications temporarily suspended

    firstly, i'm fully aware that this sounds like a 5 year old on a long car journey, but i'm doing this more for comedic affect than actually being very interested. (although I wouldn't mind applying for full membership)
    "is it open yet? is it? ohhh, please say it is!"

    Not Quite. I'm sure we'll do some sort of announcement when it is.

    oh thankyou. (*hug*)

    I didn't mean to sound inpatient, I read that it may be up again in a week so I was checking, but I understand that things take time.

    Re: Full Membership Applications temporarily suspended

    Man I've been on this site for over a year and I never applied and now I can't!

    I've mostly been a lurker until now but I hope the application opens up again soon ^-^

    I am very much looking forward to applying myself. This is a place I can see myself staying in for a very long time. c:

    Re: Full Membership Applications temporarily suspended

    Hi there! I would suggest that you stay active on the site and continue to engage with other members then. In order to apply you will need to meet the minimum requirements which include having at least a post count of 50, and meaningful posts in various areas of the forum. :slight_smile:

    For some reason I thought the post count to become a full member was some crazy number like 1,000 or something hahaha.

    Re: Full Membership Applications temporarily suspended

    People should just chill out and wait until the applications are open. The world isn't going to end if they're going to stay closed for a couple more weeks, or however long it takes.
