Heck, I got a new email address with Google (gmail) and when I tried to change my profile, it says my email address has been BANNED! What the...?

Norm, having met you, I understand completely

Normspeed · October 24, 2008, 11:14:27 AM

Took 'em a while to catch on, eh?

We have had some problems with spammers and G mail That's why it's banned. Fatcat can take care of it.

Hey Norm! I haven't even met you but I've seen emails about you from all over the world, and seen a lot of notices in washrooms all over the US when I've been down there at rod runs! Waddaguy!!!! Heh Heh Heh, just funnin!

A lot of boards no longer accept Gmail addresses due to spambots.

Or maybe it's just personal.

No it is not personal. I am a gmail user as well and we do have some users on the forums that have gmail addresses that were signed up before the removal of that option. It just became an issue to have to delete up to 300 user accounts a day that were trying to sign up with gmail addresses. So I was forced to add the email domain @gmail.com to the ban list.

Norm if you send me a PM with the email address I can enter it manually and then your gmail account can get notification messages.

See, first you move to N.M. and then you get banned. Some one has your number.

He's having a great time in Deming. His only regret was having to leave his two Hooter's Girls back in El Lay. So far he's only been able to find a Cooters in Deming.
