Your registrations have probably dropped because you have tapped out your current way of advertising. E.g. maybe everyone you told, then told a friend to register. Now all their friends have registered so you are not getting that many new registrations. You need to advertise, this hack isnt hurtning you. It actually helps. I do not see how giding someone through a registartion process and greeting them would make them turn away. Thats just crazy, things dont work like that.
