    I wonder if part of the issue also might be having changed the rules that you can join and immediately sell things, whereas before you had to have a certain amount of interactions before being allowed to sell? Since these days every time I come online it's mostly just For sale posts.
    But on that note, a lot of people have been selling whole setups so seems like many are leaving the hobby?

    APSA took a back seat as priorities change in everyone's lives sometimes..

    I have cleaned up the spam, fixed the registration issue, but unfortunately pics hosted on photobucket, imgur etc. are no longer available. but the site itself is working fine.

    APSA was left in my custodianship, and I did not treat it very well, but I am going to turn things around this year!

    Nope, still the same issue :(

    I've tried using autogen passwords, manual passwords, filled out all the fields, nada. The red google signup button doesn't work either - but looking at the icon it's a relic from the Google Plus days.

    I'll disable uBlock and try again.

    All right - registration seems to works on Edge but not FF (although the captcha was whack and I had to redo it multiple times). Awaiting my confirmation mail and it's taking a disturbingly long time...
