Can't reg on fishing site?

What's the reason for asking for an isp address thats not free before you can reg on some sites.
They don't like my Yahoo email acc addy.
I wanna reg for Fishnet. Whats is this new crap?
Is it because they don't want people who don't pay for their email?

They ask for a " Valid ISP email addy.

Curious.

Thanks :2tsup:

Its so when you muck up they have a valid email and IP to ban.

The throw away emails, yahoo, gmail, etc are too easy to get, they (the admins of any forum) ban the email and the user just gets a new one no problem.

Having a non disposable email makes sure that you are legit, and not a spammer or porner. :doh:

That's surprising! All I've ever used on the internet is a Yahoo E-Mail address. Regardless of my ISP I wanted to keep the same E-Mail address so I went to Yahoo.
