Do you prefer the new message for not taking any new members?
New message for not allowing new members
I have closed my forum as we are more of a group than a forum with a shared hobby as we have reached the ideal group size.
The message people get when they want to register is:
'Administrators have forbidden any new members.'
I suggest replacing this with the following or something along those lines.
'This forum does not accept new members at the moment.'
The reason for this is that I find the forumotion message unfriendly and it gives out the wrong message in that the administrator is a power-obsessed person who can close the forum. We have collectively decided to stop at this number of members and I have merely pressed a button.
I hope people agree with me and we can get a more friendly message.

Sanket, would you be able to talk to the right people at Forumotion with a view to getting it changed?
I guess not many people are interested in this as most people want their fourm to grow.

Sure, it sounds like a fine idea. Making this editable makes sense.
Re: New message for not allowing new members
Any news on this? What needs to be done to get this changed?

I agree with this, voted yes.
@Wow99 - This is all you can do, you just have to sit tight and wait for an answer to your suggestion by someone with superior power to make a change such as your request.
