RCNitroTalk.com has recently decided to no longer allow free based email accounts. As of October 15, 2002 RCNitroTalk.com will no longer be accepting registration from free email accounts, if you have already registered with a free email account you will need to change it to one that is not a free email account.

RCNitroTalk.com believes that allowing too many users to post in the forum using free email services such as Yahoo! or Hotmail has and will cause several problems. Veterans of any internet forum can attest to this fact. In order to keep our forum honest and friendly, we don't allow people to register using any free email sites.

You must use a "real" email address from your web host ([email protected], [email protected], [email protected], the email assigned to you from your ISP, etc..) If you are concerned about privacy, you have the option to set your profile to not allow other forum members to view your email address. RCNitroTalk.com does NOT and will NOT give out any personal information about you to any third party(s).

Thank you.

-Michael

LOL! No... well... Look at you avatar dude!! Not so much a troll, closer to a lawn knome:)
 
Some people pay for hotmail and yahoo
 
Couldnt agree more! Anti-Freemail account validation is a VERY GOOD countermeasure to spasmatic flipnotic acromatic spamolitical messaging by doodledangleoid dingleberry fingerfairy flamers.

last month RCNitroTalk.com had 1,170,985 hits to this site...I seriously doubt that every last one of the people that visited will stop coming because we're cleaning up on the unwanted mess from spammers and people that start flaming wars.

Yeah, your using good logic, keep it up. :rolleyes:

Yeah, so what? No one ever even posts here except for a few select few. And now if any of those few dont have those special e-mail addresses they can't post anymore. So maybe you will wind up getting 8 posts a day instead of 10.

Hmmm, thats an interesting quote...nonetheless the 'select few' has yet to express ANY many concern for this other then people like you that are not here posting. Ohh well the speed this site is growing we'll make up for your lose in no time at all.

BTW, what exactly do you have to hide circlequeen that you need to hide behind a free email account?

Hey WoodiE, one of the select few here. Don't waste your breath having a battle of wits with an unarmed person. I am using a free e-mail account as of now but just let me know what I need to do. No complaints here, anything to better a rapidly growing and in my opinion overall great forum. Thanks for all your effort WoodiE
 
Everyone If you have aim that gives you a free account at netscape and you RCNT can't block netscape because a lot of people use netscape and pay
 
Mayhem,

Dont kid yourself...ANY email can be blocked.
