    From Prince@VERT to Digital Man on Wednesday, September 16, 2020 07:44:37
    Heya DM.

    The only way I've found to disable the new user question "Where did you hear about this BBS" is to comment out the code in the newuser.js script. Before I add this to my step-by-step, is there a more proper way?

    Thanks again!

    That would work. If you want to get ride of that question altogether, you may also consider commenting out 96-103 in logon.js as well.

    No there is. I just committed an update to newuser.js so you can just set "survey=false" in the [newuser] section of your ctrl/modopts.ini file.

    Perhaps, but no points for this question - since the answer is a few messages <---- that way.

    And I meant to write "Now there is". :-)

    This is still undocumented in the current copy of modopts.ini in the git repo. I was trying to figure out how to do this because I remembered reading about it a couple months ago. I vote for adding a remark in the default modopts.ini file to document it for posterity!
