Need access with my Yahoo address

desperadus · 06-25-09, 05:54 AM

Hello,

I purchased (paid a lot of $ for it) an NVIDIA G-Force card.
And now I need some help with using it, but I find out that I can't register my Yahoo e-mail address on this website.
For obvious reasons I'll have to cancel my commercial e-mail account in these challenging times and I can't understand why this site won't allow me to enter my Yahoo e-mail address even after I finished the initial registration process.

That's just not fair to punish folks like me for what some commercial SPAMer does 10000 miles away.

Well, life's not fair. Deal with it.

What kind of a jackass reply is that?!
I came in here for help, not to be ridiculed.

Thanks for nothing Mr. J.

Yes, but *only* because I haven't yet gotten around to quit my legacy e-mail account.
Once I did that, I won't be able to receive any e-mails from this website and if this forum has a "heart beat checker" for account e-mails, then my forum account might even get purged down the road.

As far as I know, Yahoo accounts are being phased out because of spambots using yahoo and other webmail accounts to gain access to the forums and spamming the forums.

Well I don't think they're "being phased out".
They are all flat out blocked already.
But all of this is mute I think, because I can't find any help with NVIDIA under Linux on this site at all.
And since that's all the NVIDIA issues I got, I will have to go look for help elsewhere anyway.
