Not able to register e-mail is banned so why is it? I've tryed both my e-mail addresses and got the same message, that they're banned - WHY???
(especially I haven't ever been on this forum before)

Could you send me your e-mail address(es) via private message? I'll try and find out what's wrong here.

..Um not unless s/he is registered already...only members can send PMs
maybe s/he could post it as rot-13, or rot-13 twice for double security

They could click the "email" button under Giskard's profile to send them an email message. At least, I think guests can still do that.

Umm, damn, I tested it by logging out and seeing if the PM / E-mail buttons were still there... I did not test it by actually clicking on them... so, e-mail me at giskardSPLAT unfiction.com then

Well I'm actually from Russia - could the reason be in using .ru domain zone?

Nope, we have more members from Russia, actually. It could be though that you use an e-mail address from a .ru domain that has previously been banned because of spammers using the same domain. This is the case with the @mail.ru domain currently. Is that the domain you are using?

That is the funniest thing I have seen in a while.
Thank you for making my day.

Yes, it is!
So does it mean I have to create a new e-mail somewhere else to register?

Unfortunately, that mail domain is banned due to recurring spammer problems. Can I offer you a Gmail invite?
