Forgive me for going slightly off-topic, but as there is still a stead stream of users requesting MySpleen invites since they (for their own reasons) prefer to download v2.5 by torrent, I've noticed a few problems with thread we've been referring people to.
The MySpleen invite thread Harmy links to in the first post of this thread was started in 2007. The first and biggest problem is that the first page of that thread lacks any sort of updated instructions on how to properly request an invite and then access the site. Unlike this thread, in which Harmy regularly updates the first post, users are fed outdated information, such as the requirement to give an email address (no longer needed), or the incorrect web URL (thread title says "MySpleen.net").
In order to mitigate the number of posts asking about MySpleen invites, I'd like to volunteer to start a new MySpleen invite thread with a proper first post instructing new users what to do. Before I do this, though, I need to know the following:
1) Is this even a good idea, or should I leave it alone?
2) I'd like to create the thread in a moderated subforum so that it doesn't go unreasonably off topic; would the "How-To's" forum be an acceptable place for such a thread?
3) Harmy, if a new MySpleen invite thread were created, would you update the link in your first post of this thread?
