Yes, you need a email account you somehow pay for, or a school email. This to avoid people from registering multiaccounts. Or rather one of the ways to avoid multiaccounts.
But what if we dont have a nonfree email? I dont. I tried to register using holomail just to see if it worked, but you know it didnt. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Of course holomail didn't work - it's a free e-mail address. (:
ISP, school, work, and private domain e-mail addresses are accepted. Most internet service providers offer e-mail accounts to their users, so you should have access to that if not to any of the others.
If for some reason you don't, you're welcome to borrow an ISP mail from a friend or family member, or just have them forward you the password, since you only need to use that e-mail address once. After you've got an account you can log in and change your e-mail address to a free one which will be used for subsequent communication.
Thanks for that info. I didnt know I could change it to a free one after wards. I got a domain email, and I am hoping to get the password email and stuff today. I cant wait to rp! But thx again for that info.
Lol I got the email. But this is what it says: Dear Andarien Valdamir,
The SW Combine Administration has declined your membership application providing
the following reason :
Your e-mail address was not accepted because it is originating from a free
e-mail supplier. E-mail addresses from domains such as @hotmail.com or
@yahoo.com or any other free e-mail provider are not permitted. Please use your
e-mail address assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider. Please refer
to the Character Creation rules page located at
http://rules.swcombine.com/character/charactercreation/ for more information.
Now I must use my isp provider email. But I dont know the password to it :( lol. Thats not good... lol
actually, it's not Checkov from Star Trek, but Alfred Bester from Babylon 5 (it is the same actor, but his B5 role is so much better ...)
to help with your problem: handle and password are case sensitive (since you already tried logging in, i assume you already received your confirmation email that your account is activated). If that doesn't work, try deleting all cookies and make sure your browser accepts cookies for this site. If that doesn't help, try using a different browser (i.e. if you're using IE, try Firefox).
