    When I try to sign up for the avsim online forum, I get this:

    Invalid Email Account

    For security reason, anonymous email addresses are not allowed.
    Please register with non-anonymous email address.

    I have tried my e-mail address at Juno and Hotmail, they are my e-mail address that I use every day!!!
    Help!!

    Always try to keep the number of landings you make equal to the number of take offs you've made.

    Every takeoff is optional. Every landing is mandatory.

    "You have Clearance, Clarence"
    "Roger, Roger."
    "What's our vector, Victor?"

    Always keep at least two inches of air below the aircraft.

    That's because (With all due respect) Tommy Boy hasn't figured out the fact that not all ISP's give you an email address and that not everyone has access to an ISP that WILL.

    I had the same problem a while back...and right when I got it sorted out, I lost my home internet and my forum 'priveledges'.

    Thus I don't care anymore and I hope Lou and the bunch will remian sane enough not to follow (Again with all due respect)Avsim policy.

    I think they check the email in the fly. Maybe web based addresses won't work. Use the address that cames with your internet service.

    That's the reason I did not sign up for avsim. I don't want any personal info that may be attached to the parent's e-mail traced to this name.

    What personal information? oh you mean stuff like sex, age, annual income etc., etc..
    You are under no obligation to supply any of that to anyone.
    Nor should you!

    [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Feb-07-02 AT 05:45AM (EDT)[/font][p]AVSIM and other reputable sites (e.g. FlightSim.Com), do nothing with any email addresses you provide, other than what you request. The only reason that a real email address is required for AVSIM's forums is so the automatic notification works, and, should there be an issue with something you have posted, to allow staff to contact you "out of band".

    Anyone who does "background checks" on email addresses they collect from users without their explicit permission to do so should be strung up and shot.
