Maybe there is someone from Doom10 here? I cannot find a link on their forum to contact somebody about a mysterious but yet funny error.
I went ahead and registered to Doom10 and it appears that my email address has been banned? "Sorry, you are not allowed to register on this forum.Banned email."
I registered to Doom9 back in December of 2008 though I had not made my first post there yet but I have read a lot down there. Been a lurker there for some time but hadn't posted there yet.
I didn't think it was ever possible to be banned from someplace when someone hadn't registered yet. Pretty funny actually when you think about it. |

Maybe you used a mail account that is frequently used with spam? Some forums actually block things like @hotmail.com and @yahoo.com

What was the email domain you tried to use, (part after the @)?
Some domains are just banned by rote. |

I have a yahoo email account. I might have to use Verizon but I would prefer to have that separate from my other mail
I am sort of against getting a Google gmail account due to privacy concerns.
That site has a couple of captchas which I would think that would be more secure than than going by an email suffix to prevent spamming. Then again I'm not fluent with php nor message board software. |

I did write to DS about it, from Doom9. See what he says. If yahoo addresses are banned I'll just make the exception and use my Verizon address instead. |

DS has fixed the problem of the registration. |
