Friend cant get an account...

[Swash]

I asked my friend on pirates to get an account here but he or his parents dont have an e-mail address ( strange isnt it ) and his parents dont trust him to get a yahoo address so is there any possible way he could get an account without an e-mail.

[Chris]

No i wouldnt think so its part of the registration process i doubt they will remove it for 1 member to join.

[Mr.LoveLocket]

Is he 13+?
If he is you do need it.
I have A LOT if you want one i could give. If thats okay.

[Chris]

I wouldn't recommend giving away an email account.

[Swash]

Thx Lovelocket but Even if you did give me an e-mail address I couldnt give him it because i probably could say it on pirates.

[Chris]

The best way to answer your question is just to PM and Admin about your problem.

yeah thats not possible but my idea sneak it so your parents dont see your email lol

thats what i do sometimes

[Mr.LoveLocket]

When i was younger i had 1 already
Maybe he can make one secretly..
Once i had a friend and his parents didn't let him
join the forums have email im ect. Once I said hey wanna come?
and he said my parents say i can't. When he played the game his parents
and he is 13+ hmm.. parents these days
(this wasn't on potco)

[Chris]

Like i said pm an admin. However i doubt they will say yes because it will be going against the wishes of the parents. Now yes it may seem un-fair but parents are only doing what they think is right and safe for their child.

Unfortunately, no. The registration process for our sites requires recieving an activation e-mail to activate your account here on the site, so an E-mail address is a required part of joining.

Gotta say that wouldn't be ok, Lovelocket. While we do allow you to have an e-mail address listed for people to e-mail you at in your profiles, we ask that you not post, pm, or send an e-mail address to anyone as this violates our personal information poilicy (since usually e-mail addresses have info such as name, location, etc needed to recieve the account.)

Also, before anyone asks why it's ok for someone to have it in their profile but not post it anywhere, it's because of the way the site has it set-up. The e-mails are set so that when you E-mail someone through our site, the e-mail is anonymous so that the sender never sees it.

[Mr.LoveLocket]

OH! he is talking about POF
i thought he meant POTCO

[Chris]

No the guy has a POTCO account thats how they know each other. What swash wants to know is if he can on POF. I dont think they know each other in real.

Also Swash if his parents say no email then id respect that because if they found out he might lose all his computer privlages and cant even get on potco.

[Mr.LoveLocket]

good point chris and yeah i thought it was Swash friend in real who wanted to play..that is why i said 13+
