• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

hi guys,

first post here.

I'm just a little bit astonished that none of my regular e-mail adresses worked to register here. I'm using mainly gmx.net and web.de...

The funny thing on the other side is, that I was able to register with a melt mail. :LOL:

So perhaps you might wanna reconsider that?
I know bots and trolls can be a PITA but if I scare off real users something went horribly wrong.

kind regards,

Kr4
 
We only ban email domains when there has been a problem with them being abused. We do ban disposable addys, but there are so many we aren't even aware of.

(6) No Web based EMAIL ACCOUNTS (i.e Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, etc) allowed for forum registration. You must have a valid e-mail account where you can be reached by a forum moderator or administrator. Email accounts must be updated in your account when a change is required.

The first part is no longer followed (you can use gmail, hotmail or yahoo here).

The second part still applies. You slipped in with a disposable addy we weren't aware of. It would behoove you to fix that ASAP.
