    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?

    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.

    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!
