Hotmail Users MUST READ
« on: May 09, 2008, 02:28:20 AM »
Hotmail is working for the time being


As some of you may be aware I've been having no end of problems with hotmail. I apologize for this. For some reason hotmail rejects notification emails based on the fact that they may be spam. There is very little the I can do about this, I've notified Hotmail that we are not spammers and that the emails are legit but they are yet to give me a response. To anyone trying to register with a hotmail address you will need to email admins@randlan.net to get us to activate your account, however you will NOT get ANY emails from the bored if you use a hotmail address!

I will continue working on the issue but I strongly recommend every get GMail accounts as they don't block us.

Cheers,

Hotmail is no longer an accepted email for this board... New users will HAVE to use a non hotmail address and old users are asked to change to another address, either gmail or another domain.

Hotmail now blocks all attempts for us to contact them, or any users, from this domain. This is unfortunate, and damn annoying, but there's nothing I can do except suggest you all get gmail accounts...

Update - NO new accounts will be accepted registering from hotmail address's. Current accounts that have posted at least once will be exempt from the ban. But please note that you will not receive any emails from the board, because hotmail now blocks us... So we're gonna block them...
