/OFF
I think it is a bad idea automatically scrolling the forum page down and thus hiding the link with the registration information.
/ON

A-ha, but you're wrong about that @gerliczer  Check out the page when you're not logged in! It only scrolls out of view for you, since you're a veteran.
Graham, the thing we're talking about, it's the very first thing you see when you visit the forum, just click the registration link. Can't miss it

I'm not logged in as have no account here! Been around the site a dozen times and there is no option for me to register, only log in, which I can't do without an account!

Look for this text in the middle of the screen right under the menu section when you are in the forum area:
----------
Plus/4 World Forum
Welcome to the Forum!
You can discuss anything Plus/4 related here!
No registration necessary, anyone can post!
-----------
And click on the "registration" word! Hope it helps!

I quickly tested this again just in case in all my browsers, but of course the link works as intended. I honestly can't imagine a reason why it wouldn't. Here's what it should look like:

This is on Windows/Chrome. What OS/browser are you using?
Additionally... The reason for "registration" is to balance the very real need to users to post who don't want to register. Many folks come to the site, and they balk at "give me your real name and email address, then we'll send you a validation code" type thing; they would rather say "that's too many hoops to jump through, it's not worth my time". All those hurdles have been removed, participating in the community (the forum, specifically) could not be easier. I mean... you managed it

Tell you what. Thanks for the help but I really can't be bothered with all this. If you don't want members thats fair enough, not wasting any more of my time☹️

@Csabo: That's yet another proof of how bad I am at correctly observing things.  However, judging by how the topic opener gave up on registration because it didn't work as he imagined it should, I'd say you built in a mean intelligence test into the registration procedure.

1.: Is "Graham spuffard" not an AI generated person???
2.: WHO manages more-and-more people to buy an iPhone and no anything to think about...

Graham, you're looking for a registration page that doesn't exist. All you have to do is send an email to Csabo (his email address is displayed on that link), and he will set up an account for you.

@JamesC, I don't know, I literally posted a video that shows what happens when you click registration (that's the expected result), and Graham said
Click on REGISTRATION and it does absolutely nothing.
The actual link was also posted above, as were details about not needing registration to participate - Graham hasn't responded to any of that. Fourteen posts about this simple, banal thing... Did he not read anything? The link is there in bold, the page explains everything clearly in detail... At this point - and I apologize in advance if this is harsh - I would conclude that he has a severe reading comprehension, or it's a troll.
The other (slight) possibility is that there is an actual bug on the site on an iPhone, which I can't test unfortunately. So; my fellow Plus/4 World visitors (registered or otherwise), could someone please test the Registration link on an iPhone and makes sure it works? (That is, it takes you to the page which explains how to register.)

It could just be a bug on iphone.
As I said everything else yellow works apart from REGISTER.
Maybe I did fail the intelligence test! Lol

I would be very surprised if anyone involved in retrocoding would own an actual iPhone )
I have got some female friends who of course have iPone, I will test tomorrow.
EDIT: Success, I remotely persuaded one of them to do the testing for me, tadaaa... it works as expected.
