Tythus 1307 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hi Guys, I've been thinking on the possibility of allowing users to buy their own [email protected]/[email protected] email address with 10GB storage. This would cost about 4$ a month although I might make it cheaper for long term payments this would have IMAP, POP and active sync. You could probably get more than 10GB if you needed it for slightly more (something like 0.50$ per GB). Is there any thoughts on this? cost too much? no it can't be free but that would be cool =[ Thanks for your time, Tythus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bungo 3965 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I feel this would be absolutely worthless because you can get a free email from anywhere else. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pureimp10 5691 Share Posted February 25, 2015 It sounds cool, but like Vekaro said, one could easily just get a free gmail or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tythus 1307 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 It sounds cool but why would you waste money on that, don't make it its useless it makes no difference to us at the end of the day it's just adding accounts to our email management system and using slightly more resources so we get billed more so thats why the cost is there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space 2335 Share Posted February 25, 2015 'So, your email is at the address 'lordofthecraft.net...' Was that your prior workplace?' 'U-u-uhm... Yeah, something like that.' EDIT - Beat you all. Just... Mod queue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heero 4092 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I would have to agree with a few of the people above. Going to such length to produce such a service would be fruitless labor when there are dozens of free e-mail services available that offer 10gb and other services. The idea is a nice gesture to the community but when it is a cost to the server/forums I personally believe it should not be followed through.

Volutional 935 Share Posted February 25, 2015 A tedious payment for something that would never really be used unfortunately. We have free forum PMs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JVQ 1719 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Interviewer: "You got the job, all I need is your home address, phone number and email!" Me: "I live in***********, my number is *********** and my email is [email protected]" Interviewer: "What is lordofthecraft? I have never heard of this email provider!?" Me: "It is my Minecraft fantasy roleplay server" 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ Fiend ~ 611 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I also wouldn't use it, but not just because of the cost, I wouldn't want to have to explain it to people. "@me.com" or "@yahoo.com" is something people are used to. Edit: Ofc Kipples got it in seconds before me. *shakes fist* Edit 2: Dammit Space. Tl;dr: No e-mails. Sounds good in theory, looks bad on paper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
