Good idea so everyone can see if he is in the list.But on the other side if sb is accepted he gets an email.The thing i don't know is if he gets an email if he is rejected.If he gets one then the list wouldn't be of much help.
The other thing we have to consider is.Do we want everyone to see who has signed for an account?

I think it depends on the mod as to whether or not rejected users get an email, I'm not too sure if I want everyone seeing the currently pending users however along with the new signup system (which is actually happening...slowly) I'll consider doing something like that.

Have you applied at signup.phoenix-hosting.org ?

I don't see you on the list of users awaiting accounts.

There might be some privacy issues with that, some users might not want to show up on the list. How about a counter with the number of users pending instead? That way, new users would have an idea about how long would it take to get an account.

Very true. I like the above idea. A queue system which doesn't disclose who is waiting and who is not. Take a ticket and get in line.

Maybe if you are assigned a ticket number and then you could have a automated system of checking for progress. So every new sign up is assigned an ID that corresponds to their application. Have a little field in the website where you can enter your ticket number and get a update (ie processing, waiting for review, reviewing, rejected, approved)

Probably too much trouble for too little gain. Just a suggestion

Yes I'd approve of this too, with the ticket system. Enter your ticket ID, get the information about your pending account with phoenix. I think it would reduce spam on the admins slightly, as not as many people would be asking them if their shell was approved, or when they're going to approve them. Maybe also, admin could set a time when the applications are going to be set, just to give a rough idea to the users of when they're going to get accepted or declined. I know the time part of it wouldn't work too well because life is unexpected, it is just an idea.
