The current message being displayed is the generic one, i.e. that
account creation is restricted (with no specific reason). I can easily
customize it if needed. In that case, I will let overseers send me the
customized message they want to be displayed if the account creation
request is rejected.

The decision to remove restrictions for account creation belongs to
overseers, not to me. Looking at the log file, I can confirm that the
attack stopped on September 2 at 22:00 UTC. After that time, I see no
dubious attempts. Most of the blocked accounts since then are using
@gmail.com email addresses. Maybe we could try to whitelist @gmail.com
again? It would be easy to blacklist this domain again if we see that
the attack is coming back.
