Talk:Anonymous editor acquisition/Signup invites

It would be useful to say somewhere in what extension this is being done... --Nemo 05:51, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Nagging invites
it's more a nagging pop-up/layer, than an invitation. Read, there's an article for this behavior. So please name the used layers/divs, that one could hide it out via Greasemonkey. Brilliant, Let them have cake greasemonkey tutorials! ;-( as in the annoying discontinued Article Feedback Tool. --84.134.49.247 18:53, 28 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Wikipedia says: "Nagware (also known as begware, annoyware or a nagscreen) is a type of shareware that reminds (or nags) the user to register it by paying a fee". That doesn't sound like this at all. In any case, you can find the names of the divs by right clicking and then inspecting the element in pretty much any browser.
