I remember 10+ years ago you suddenly reengaged and had a ton of energy and new ideas, most of which were shit. If the bort is working, most other stuff will take care of itself.

Point is a while ago you came back, there was a flurry of excitement, but most of the stuff you proposed was pure shit. The single best thing for the bort is that it keeps functioning. Other changes might be good or bad (functional search sounds good) but you don't need to change things for the sake of change.

were you on some sort of drugs when you came up with the invite scheme? none of the best poasters would ever admit to poasting here and only the weirdos will ever use it

what alternatives do you suggest?
open registration without sponsorship is how you get the real weirdos. here, if someone's inviting an army of discord trannies, i'll start to notice their ratio is pretty bad and uproot them all.
registration with .edu is pretty obsolete. it exposes people's identities, even if i don't retain the addresses, and it's selecting for a population that isn't really representative of the community anymore.
was this even a serious question, or do you want to waste what remains of the final three days of my drug-fueled coding marathon?

well I'm suggesting that given the three day time limit you won't "notice" anything, not that I blame you but come on you won't be monitering this shit, you're basically just giving out codes to guys who will use it to register alt accounts, I understand the userbase isn't growing but it isn't going to grow unless you manage to make this site relevant to law students again, which you can't, we are a relic
