New user here, and this has probably been asked before.

But why isn't gmail allowed ? i had to use <spam provider> to get an account here, and even tho i'm now registered here i can't change my mail into my actual mail address.

Maybe there is a logical reason as to why a registered user can't change his mail afterwards he has registered and activated his account.

Thank you for providing information about this spam provider, it has been banned. Temporary e-mail addresses are not allowed here.

Google Mail isn't allowed since they are one of the worlds largest forum spam enablers. Please use the e-mail address assigned to you by your ISP.

As a new member of the forums, I'm curious why this situation persists. It's not hard to get an email address anymore from anyone, but Gmail appears to be the #2 email provider overall and this policy is preventing a large portion of your users from participating in the forum. I know I had to dig up an email address I use for exactly nothing else nowadays.

Even the most basic web hosting package has this facility.
