Effective Immediately, all NEW users will be required to use their REAL E-Mail address. Any FREE E-Mail accounts (hotmail, yahoo, etc) will no longer be permitted for registration purposes. We hope that this will alleviate the problem with the moderators having to babysit some of the troublesome users who are here just to cause problems. Anyone who currently has a free e-mail account and has it in their Registration Information, is not affected by this new ban.

Unfortunately, It has become necessary to do this. I've spoken w/ the Moderators about this decision, and it was not just mine alone. Matthew328 has been so busy, he hasn't been able to keep tabs on what's going on here. All of these troublesome users will NOT BE TOLERATED -- and if some keep up, could result in a subnet ban (meaning an entire ISP will be blocked from the system, if needed)..

does that mean your email address has to be from your internet provider because if that is what is you won't have many idiot posters or serious posters registering. i say keep romming people. i know what i say has no relevance and im sorry for questioning your decision.

Yah, it'll help a little...

But when your son or daughter or brother or sister or dude that sleeps on the couch is using the same ISP and account and wants to register they can't (unless, in most cases, you fork over extra dough to the isp)...

Good thing I do not have any sons or daughters or brothers or sisters or dudes who sleep on the couch ha... :D
