HAHAH!
Hey,
welcome to the forums.
I think most people just left thier name on, and are playing Onimusha(which is what I should be doing, but I had to take a break)
So..to answer your question, your email isnt banned, if that was the case, you wouldnt be able to even sign on, cause they ban you according to your IP address and not your email.
So, once again, welcome and enjoy your time here.
(damn I sounded like a MOD for some reason)

Not that I know of.

Welcome to the forums.  

You\'re part of an \'Online PS2 Gaming Clan\', so that PS2 owners who play PC games online? Or are you planning ahead?

Not sure whats up with that

We have had a few splash ban problems, and we have banned a handful of Zealots but hey your in

IGN gets the hits, but also gets the headaches,

i figured everyone\'s playing onimusha with all the rave reviews, but i have yet to get it.  i want to, but i\'m strapped for cash until april.... damn IRS!!!

lavan, Team Falcon is a bunch of PS2 owners just gathering in preparation for online gaming.  you\'d think we\'d play pc games, but not all of us are as into PC games as console games.  i myself only play Diablo2 for the PC.

I know what the problem is

We had lots of problems with banned people signing up with Hotmail and Yahoo accounts and then trashing our boards so Bjorn ( are fearless leader) banned those type of mail accounts to make it a little tougher for meatheads to get in

I believe this is the reason

so no one with a hotmail or yahoo email address can sign up?  oh well, that should filter a lot of spammers.

:) My primary email adress is a hotmail one- even if you try to contact me from The Sports Gaming Network staff and forums page it links to my hotmail acount.

I had to specifically go out and get another email adress so I could sign up here.

Welcome to the greatest PS2-forum on the .net.

There\'s many reasons to it:


There\'s the top three reasons why you should stay here. :)

BTW. I would be playing Onimusha if I\'d have the money to buy the game! For Christ\'s sake, don\'t tell me it\'s THAT good!

I\'m just jealous, that\'s all... ;)

I might as well welcome you here too *waves from on top of his R-9 battleship*, so, welcome to the forums.

I actually visited the IGN boards today *shiver*, and noticed that the general quality of posts over there was even lower than I ever could\'ve expected. It\'s a pity seeing a few intelligent people trying to get a point across, only to be drowned in a wealth of heartless two-sentence replies with no point. And spam, oh man, you could fill three olympic-size swimming pools with that and have a pool-party (though all the spam would probably just scare people away and you\'d be partyin\' alone).

This here is still the best forum I\'ve found, with some of the smartest people I\'ve met on the \'net.

Be here, or be square :)
