In the signup page at least, there are very specific errors that show in

address."
when did you change that? i don't recall having seen it.
It's been that way since I implemented that fake modal dialog box for
signup in Snarf. :)
What random, poorly worded message are you referring to? The min. length
prompt is oddly worded, but I don't think it's particuarly unclear.
i don't recall the specific copy, but it was written by me, i think.
perhaps it's gone now!
Yeah, you're probably thinking of the old signup pages from the Cosmo
admin UI.
In any case, we absolutely should add some prompts to let people know
stuff like min. length for the fields. The way that it is now, they have
to guess, and wait for the gotcha error message to come back before they
know what the requirements are.
