Disable identity validity check

Switch skipIdentity flags to true

hey @michalisFr, can you clarify with a link (or two) why this is needed ? i.e. identity being frozen on Kusama

@ironoa As part of the identity migration to the People system parachain, as described here, the identity pallet is frozen on Kusama, that happened in runtime 1.2.0. As a result, no new identities can be created for the time being.

Following that, once the process is complete, identities will be issued on the People chain (next step probably in 1.2.4), which means a refactoring of the backend will be needed for the identity check.

Until all of this is done, it's best to disable this check to allow people to join the program and avoid breaking changes.

You will probably also want to actually implement that flag, e.g. like that. Currently it does nothing, as a few other flags.
