 Currently the text on wp-signup.php reads:

 "Welcome back, <username>. By filling out the form below, you can add
 another site to your account. There is no limit to the number of sites you
 can have, so create to your heart’s content, but write responsibly!"

 ...though, in a WordPress multisite install I'm working on, we're limiting
 the number of sites a user can create, so "there is no limit to the number
 of sites you can have" is not appropriate in this case.

 This multisite install is hosted by a third party and it would be best to
 avoid hacking the wp-signup.php core file or setting up a redirect to an
 alternate script. (These two methods being the only way I've found to
 change this text when researching the issue.)

 Would it be possible to add a filter to the text on wp-signup.php line
 224:


 {{{
         <p><?php printf( __( 'Welcome back, %s. By filling out the form
 below, you can <strong>add another site to your account</strong>. There is
 no limit to the number of sites you can have, so create to your
 heart’s content, but write responsibly!' ),
 $current_user->display_name ) ?></p>

 }}}

 ...or have a Network Admin option of some sort to enable changing of this
 default text?

 ...or make wp-signup.php easily themeable?

 Alternately, if it would be possible to limit the number of sites
 individual users can create as a Network Admin option that would alter
 this text to reflect the set limit, that would solve the problem as well.
