Me too.

Define abuse Cynthetiq. People just make accounts so to piss others off? A solution that seems obvious would be to allow people that have reached certain rank to use their frequented emails. I posted this suggestion here http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showthread.php?t=85740.

I think some people a of certain rank can and do have gmail addresses.

I'll just say that we've banned some people in excess of 10 times per week.

So your saying, that some people create 10 accounts a week, just to piss you guys off?

Read this post by Halx; I separated it from the thread, because it stands alone.

Yup....that says it all.

But now i have an email address that i no longer have access to in my user details and cant change it to my gmail address.
To me this seams like a strange way to deal with a problem because there are many ways to get a lot of email addresses other than gmail/hotmail/etc for example if u have a domain you've got pretty much unlimited access to email accounts, and i could go and find some free email that hasn't been banned and use that but i really don't want yet another email address to check (or remember in case of password recovery)
Nether the less I guess Hal has spoken, and i respect his decision.
