hello, when the registration opens again can you tell me? , the project is cool btw

This will be the last update I post to MessengerGeek. All future updates will be posted in the Discord server (and later on, the website & our own forums).

Registrations are currently open as of writing, you have until August 12, 2025 to register.

We’re currently working on redesigning the service’s architecture to be microservices-based, primarily so that we don’t have to bring down the entire service just to update a single component. It also would make shared functionality between CrossTalk and other services I’m working on much easier to accomplish.

On top of this, we’re also rewriting our OSCAR implementation to not suck, creating a web dashboard for managing the server instead of crappy scripts, getting MSIM ready for public use, fixing bugs + implementing missing features in the clients we already support, and researching proper patching methods for WLM 2011/2012. And let’s also not forget about the blue spherical shaped elephant in the room. :wink:

There’s much more than that in our plans too, but that’s all I’m currently at liberty to talk about.

The service (all of it’s microservices/components) will still be made fully open source; we plan on doing this in 2026 (no later). Some components will likely have their source code released even before then.

Help wanted!

Obviously since we’re just a team of two people, working on this as a hobby part-time, and having other projects/life things to worry about, doing all this is quite difficult and time consuming. I’m calling on anyone who would like to help make CrossTalk as great as it can possibly be. If you’d like to help us in any way (we especially want more documentation/technical info about the protocols & clients), don’t hesitate to shoot me a DM (preferably on Discord/Signal/CrossTalk itself), or mention one of us in the Discord server.
We don’t need financial support currently (and we aren’t gonna beg for it like some others), however there is the possibility of that changing as we expand. We’re fine for now though. :stuck_out_tongue:

I registered for a new account yesterday, and later on it was deleted without any explanation, IDK why, I don’t think I downloaded any file from the site.

Your account wasn’t deleted, unless your account was one of the 100 spam accounts that I purged a few days ago.

I queried the DB and you definitely have an account. So maybe don’t blame me for your memory issues :stuck_out_tongue:.

amazing project!!! already using it!!!

If i try to log back in to my account the registration system thinks it was either removed or doesn’t exist.

Then you’re entering your password or some other detail wrong.

Unless the account supermariowar17@msn.com with the username SuperMarioWar1.7 doesn’t belong to you.

Then both my username and password are correctly entered.

Clearly not if you’re not able to get in. :stuck_out_tongue:

Try resetting your password if that’s a real e-mail or creating a new account.
