maybe you should enable the admin thinger that allows you to decline a registerer or something. i forget how vbulliton works.  but my friend tried to get a gmail account to make an account on here and it didnt work, then i tried to make it for him, and it didnt work again, you might as well and shut up and just say bg is no longer accepting new registers.

Gmail was banned.

Its not closed, use the email your internet provider gave you and it works perfectly fine.


Besides, closing registaration will still not stop peoples email from being sent back.

You MUST have a working email. Thats pretty simple to follow I think


If you do not like it, tough fucking shit.
Trust me, you would HATE IT here if I did not do this. This keeps away an unbelievable amount of people who only want to cause trouble.


If you are legit, you will get on.

It was banned because you flamed  Frumpy.

Now that I know you are back, you will be banned again.

More to come.

i understand what you're trying to do with the free email accounts..but just because its easy to get a certain email, means it should be banned? this makes little sense to me all though i respect the reason of spam etc. but eh, i think its a little petty. maybe there's a higher reason but thats what i think. and the email my internet provider gives out, sucks the big one, so i guess ill have to keep that yahoo mail in my settings(no longer exists) until i purchase an email account you know nothing of?

For one thing, it eliminates some of the thought that you are anonymous on the internet. The internet has caller I.D. and its not easily blocked.

Because people feel anonymous they feel they can say or do anything they want without repercussions. By doing this it cuts down on people acting stupid.

Also, eliminating free email services also keeps people who are banned, from just going and re-registering again every 5 seconds until I can really pin them down.


Bg is not the only website I have seen do this, in fact more and more are doing it daily.

that's why those smart people that invented forums, invented this thing called ban IP?

i know of a few forums with quite a few members that have no problems keeping gmail on the unbanned list.

Paraphrased from above and other threads, since you did not read them.

I wont go into detail, but IP ban is not always possible. The idea is to have as many possible ways to ban as you can, and implement those that fit the situation best.

As for free ones. I have several reasons..
1. people forget them, then they are terminated. Sending email back and forth saying it is diconnected

2. people make multiple accounts

3. free email companies not only come and go, but provide shitty service. Hotmail in particular. How many times has it been down recently? When they are down all email comes back. Which triggers a program on Bg to change the account to awaiting email confirmation.



Gmail
Some people have no issues with it, in the end, it is now just a free email service, and has already been abused, BADLY.


Forcing people to use an email that can be traced to them makes them more responsible. People feel the net is anonymous, and it is far from it. It has built in caller ID. By making people know they can be held accountable, it keeps A LOT of the riff raff off of BG.  Trust me, it has cut down  a ton. Most people who want to mess witha  website almost always use a free email provider. Making them use a legit, traceable IP makes it easier to get them into troubl should they actually do something wrong as well.


Most importantly, it is not hard to get one from your internet provider.

If you cannot handle or deal withthat, sorry, go someplace else. Doing this has cut down on over half of the crap that was happening here.

The board will probably bitch if you try to, considering your email.
