Default IF YOU ARE CREATING A NEW ACCOUNT, PLEASE READ

Please use your valid email address. We currently block some anonymous/free email services (Hotmail and Yahoo for instance). We do not allow anybody to sign up with these accounts anymore because of the problems linked to them.

However, people think they can just type anything in for their email and it will work. This is wrong. The system automatically sends out an activation email for you to this address. Without it, you can not login to the login servers or onto the boards.

We do not give out your email addresses, only 3 people can see them at all, and we never spam. We only need it for verification. If you dont trust us with your email address, why would you trust sony with your credit card? Do we need to go to charging $1/quarter to credit cards to keep abuse down? I hope not.

Please put in a valid email. We will be pruning accounts that are inactivated and have been so for over a month. This will keep the system clean of the people that dont read any rules and such.

You have an account. Otherwise you couldn't have posted. Your password and username here work for the login servers.

ah ok. I thought that the entire account request stuff was for the servers not for the forums. I hadn't seen it made clear anywhere, or perhaps I over-looked it. anyway, thanks

If you connect to the internet, you have an email address. I have never seen an ISP that provides you an Internet connection, but does not give you an email address with it.

Call your ISP, ask for the username/password for the email account they set you up, and use it.

We do that so people have to use their own email addresses so we can keep better tabs on the # of accounts, and try to keep people as honest as possible about not registering 20 accounts.

People spam with free email. Deal with the limitations. It's not broken. It's banned.
