You've always been able to use them, it's just that you need to email him first.

Subject: joining!!! Not heard anyting ive tried like 5 times!

hi, i would really like to join corsasport but it wont let me and ive spoken
b4 about this with someone and not heard anything bck! ive been reading the
site for the passed 2 years. Pls if u could help me with this. thanks Paul.

Here is a quote from the rule that says free email addresses are allowed.

quote:
Recently, policy on free email addresses was changed. We now ALLOW free email addresses to sign-up straight away. Your account will still go through the normal approval process and a password be emailed to you.

Generally, free email addresses will have strict spam filters, which may mean that mail which is generated automatically is deleted or put in a spam or junk folder. Please check your spam filter before contacting us if the password does not arrive.

Here is a link to the entire rule

http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=313025

Here is link to the rules forum which contains, amongst other things, some useful information.

http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/forumdisplay.php?fid=21

The cunning among you will have noticed by now the correlation between my dislike of free email addresses, the fact I've said a number of times that free email addresses generally have strict junk folders, and the fact that this guy is not getting anywhere.

If in doubt, use a proper one. If anyone thinks my policy is wank, thanks warren, they are welcome to bang their head on a wall replying numerous times to numerous people, none of whom have either read the rules or taken the time to set up an email address that isn't, there is that word again, wank.

If you mail and don't get a reply, perhaps use an email provider who accepts replies. If anyone is really stuck I'm also happy to do contact via friends though u2u or even phone as a last ditch.

Please can everyone stop spreading misinformation as this thread is full of. Rules are there, read them, staff are there, use them but don't stalk me or criticise me when it's actually not my fault.
