New registrations not working

Tue, 24 Apr 2012 17:48:57 -0700

New registrations aren't working, basicly the forum software needs updateing. As soon as I've raised the upgrade fee ($35) I'll update the forum. You can donate via paypal via the button at the bottom of the forum btw.

In the mean time please email me at webmaster [AT] thehotfixshare.net with your desired username and email address and I'll manualy create your account. Not ideal I know but it's the best I can do for now.

Note:- an account isn't required to download from THS.

I think it`s an improvement, but I`m not the majority, so what do you think? What would you like to see added, changed or removed?

I`m looking forward to your feedback and making the share better, for everyone.
