Sig Forum?
Thought I was a member but when I tried to log on it said my email address didn't match any members. Then when I tried to register it said my email address was banned. Huh?????? |

What extension is at the end of your email?
Some forums don't allow the free/easy email addresses like hotmail. Once upon a time some forums wouldn't allow any free email address to join, although that may not be the case so much now that most people use gmail or something similar. IOW, they look at the extension- something like '[email protected] or [email protected] are good, while [email protected] or [email protected] would be bad. |

| I don't think he got your e-mail. I think certain extensions are blocked. When I finally registered using a different e-mail, it was instantaneous - like any other registration. I got my confirmation e-mail and went from there. This has been a known issue for years. Just be peristant. It's a good website, worth the effort. |

Based on the things I've heard about Sigforum, I don't think I'll ever register there. But if I need some info I just put site:sigforum.com + what I'm looking for into Google, and it will only show results from that site. Example: "site:sigforum.com P226" |
