Can't register with gmail account
« on: March 30, 2007 08:47 am CDT »
I'm unable to re-register a new forum user name with my gmail address, why is this? I was able to sign up before with my yahoo address but not gmail, very strange. Some insight?

I limit a lot of freemail servers but not all.  I do strongly prefer users to use the email address provided by their ISP.  This is primarily an anti-spam feature, but it also helps stop people who want to evade bans.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.
