Program creation is free and open to everyone. There is no bug. His program just automatically makes accounts.

Lets say your account is [email protected]. You can use [email protected]/[email protected]/[email protected] ect. to make tons of accounts go to 1 email when normally the limit is 4

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Dot blindness!!!!!!!!!!!!


That's where GMail reads the users account "cata.liste" and "cataliste" and "cata.l.iste" as being the same (cataliste). This is because the dots are for aesthetics only and GMail actually ignores them. Registration sites however treat them all as different email addresses.

yeah, unfortunately my main gmail account actually has dots in it, so i can't make neopets accounts under it

[Mr. Hobo]

Well instead of using like [email protected] you can use [email protected] and still get the email.

Sweet!
So I could use neocodex@gmail,n.eocodex@gmail,n.e.ocodex@gmail etc?
Thanks for the heads up!

Jeese... now everybody is using the "." trick... I can definitely see Neopets blocking GMail in general in the future.
I should never had advertised it around here as a way to make accounts quickly

There's no such thing as dot-blindness, everyone knows it's magic. >_<

I remember you posting it; think you were abusing free trial Rapidshare accounts at the time.

That AND a long while even before that for those free iTunes codes at that one bank (one per email deal.)

This account has been FROZEN for the following reason:
This account was using a 'cheat' or downloadable cheat program.

^the result of the gmail trick.

Or the fact that you were using cheat programs
