Hey everyone, I really didn't know where to post this so, here goes. Did anyone try to register for it but tells you that the email isn't accepted by the board? Ive been having this trouble for awhile and the reason I'm asking here is because i couldn't get a hold of any of the actual members there(their emails). I emailed one of the admins but he/she hasn't answered for almost 2 months. Any suggestions/answers will be appreciated.

I don't know an awful lot about the hunted's lair, since I've rarely been there, but when a forum rejects your email it's usually because it's already in use by someone or because they specifically blocked it. If that's the case, either someone's using your email address, or the admins have precognition and don't want you joining for some reason.
Then again, I'm not all too familiar with the site or all forum mechanics, so it could be something else. Just my two cents, maybe someone else has another idea.

I dont think anyone there is using my email, since, i havent made contact with anyone there(except that one admin, but that was a question about the registration problem aswell!). And I have tried several other emails(Including 2 new ones!) All the emails didnt work Are there any members of the lair here?

Well, I'm a member, but I haven't made any posts yet, much less gone to the site in three months... but would you like me to try and contact someone there?
On another note, exactly what does it say when you try and use your address?

Yes I would appreciate that a lot! And what it says every time i try to enter the address it says, "The email address you used is not accepted by this board. Please select a different email address." Ive also used like 5 other different emails and got the same notice.

Ha, didn't even have to. As it turns out, you're not the first person to have this problem. According to the admin....Or if that link doesn't work, his own words: Now, just a personal comment, and this is with all respect, but that honestly sounds like *Kainde amedha cjit*. This is the first time I've ever heard of forums rejecting public domain emails. The only reason I managed to re-register(Yes, I had to re-register) was because my internet provider gave a private email address. Of course, I don't know how many people keep theirs or get one, but I know a lot more use sites like hotmail and yahoo. So, yeah, natural problem, and the solution: Either ask your internet provider for a private email address, or register a domain somewhere that provides private emails.(If you don't have on yet) Hope that helps.
