Yeah, don't offer open signups, kids.

What exactly is an "open" signup? Is it as opposed to invite only?

On feddit.de, when I registered (during the great reddit migration), I had to write a short introduction about myself too. I believe it was read by a moderator and manually accepted, but I'm not sure.

So it's somewhere between Open-Closed:

open signup (no invite required), instant availability
open signup (no invite required), manual approval required
closed signup (invite required)
