How to register at Arofanatics forum?

How do I register with Arofanatics forum if I'm using gmail as my email? Do I have to get a referral? Please help me!

Just follow the instruction and step in AF and you will do fine to get registered. Buy/Sell is another matter.

When I register is says "The administrator has banned emails from certain free-providers. You have to use another email account to register." I don't have any email that is not from a free provider. Alternatively, what email free-providers do they accept?

There are two moderators that is moderators of AF. They are celticfish and johannes. They will help. PM them please.

It's hard to get permission in the buy/sell thread.

It is equally tough in AQ too if you are a newbie.

Has the rules changed in AQ? When I first signed up, all I had to do was to have 10 posts, which isn't all too difficult? Well, that's unless I remembered wrongly

I think will have to wait one month after clocking 10 posts in AQ. It is kinda cooling period for moderator to review the new user of AQ. This came into light due to AF tightening the control. The bulk of buy/sell came over to AQ to sell.

Not surprised since some budding aquarists might give up the hobby when their passion dies out, and then need an avenue to hawk their wares.
