Moving this over to the game opinions and ideas board
And in all honesty... I agree with what you're saying about the registration
Unfortunately though we cannot make this change right now since our server master Raz is currently away. A poll/petition wouldn't be a determining factor in this either, since staff has heard about this for years (we're still very happy to see that you care this much!). The reason why the registration was closed off and randomized in the first place was because back in 2012 the server was hiccuping a lot and was having trouble coping with the heavy and constant flow of new users. About a year ago we changed the randomization a little bit by having it open one our out of every twelve, thus making it a little more predictable (instead of the old way, which was two hours randomly during the week)... and I agree that even with this small change it's still very difficult for new users to join
Don't worry though, as there's always potential for change, as long as staff feels it is the best move c: Don't give up hope!
Also, regarding the donations: we don't accept them, so no need to worry about that~
