colmack Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 no way to get my CFS2 fix anymore :-( the outhouse has set me out in the cold because of my Gmail account I hope that doesn't happen here Quote
Slartibartfast Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Don't think their that cruel round here... been using a hotmail account here for around 6-7 years... Quote
ndicki Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 That sounds like a load of bollocks. Why should they throw you out because of your gmail account? I'm on gmail as well, and a lot of my CFS3 friends are too - and we haven't been thrown out. You may not use a gmail account to REGISTER with SOH, as it clearly explains at the top of the page, and it clearly explains why, too. They've been having terrible trouble over the last year with hacking and spamming, and a lot of it is through gmail, hotmail, etc, accounts. And if you haven't been able to register, that isn't throwing you out, is it? Read what it says and act accordingly. You make it sound as though the people at SOH are gmail-hate-filled avengers - they aren't. They are very good, helpful people trying to do a challenging job properly. And your post is thoroughly misleading - look how Slartibartfast, who perhaps doesn't know SOH as well as I do (it is my main flightsim home after all) has reacted to it. Quote
Slartibartfast Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Must admit I didn't really read it too well so my apologies... I have used the site infrequently but last used it a couple of years back when I downloaded the wonderful A-26 I think it was for FSX... Quote

Hoss well I'm sorry that my post miss lead you, but this fellow doesn't have a "Regular ISP email ADDY" been calling the outhouse a home for at least 10 years using that very same gmail account for at least 6 of the said years I don't hold um any bad will, I was just sayin...........I truthfully "left my heart in the outhouse" Edited May 13, 2011 by colmack Quote
