@Famer
right said. This thread is only meant for existing members, who would've been around here for some time. Do sign up with MSFN for the sake of getting Gmail, if you want to. But remember that you must make atleast 20 posts, and atleast a week must pass, before you can be considered for receiving a Gmail invitation from here.


@everybody
Do you remember the rush there was for accounts when gamehead generously made a similar thread? (a few weeks ago). People had to say multiple times that they had no invites at that point of time to give out, and gamehead finally closed it - such was the spamming there. And now this? Multiple people announcing multiple times that there's no takers? Is this the same world at all? This thing has stood itself on the head, it seems.

Ha ha ha, people are saturated with availability of Gmail accounts, maybe Google has to consider finishing up with the "testing" status - and go offering accounts public without all these obstacles of "invitations".

As far as I know even when GMail will finish its beta stage, accounts could only be created based on an invitation.

And I don't know why they are still beta. It already passed more than half a year since they launched the beta. they had lot of time for tests.

Oh! Is it so?
That sucks! Too bad for those waiting for it to go public.


And yes, to their credit, their "beta" service doesn't look that way at all. All functionality is available, and works perfectly. But they just about have passed 6 months from the date of launch. I still remember - the first of April, the announcement of a 1000 MB mailbox, the shock-waves it sent through every-body, the "april-fool" allegation - yup, they've come some distance since then.

You might want to try Avant Browser, there's even a way to fit it with a gecko engine.

Just so you know, I don't actually mind the ads (you should see yahoo....)

The invites expire? Guess it's true that when they say, "Learning something new every day" (what are you staring at me for? like you read every piece of email from top to bottom)

So does that mean Opera can close tabs every other way without problems? BTW, does the Firefox middle-click way work? If so, that's probably easier than a button (IMO, of course)

So to make this not totally off topic,
That conversation thing is truly one of a kind.

yes. Especially when you change your mail address in msfn user control panel, to your Gmail account. (so that "topic subscription reply" notifications come into using "Conversations")


And you CAN assign the other buttons on the mouse special functions (like close tab for middle-button as you said). But I don't use it since my scroll mouse makes it difficult to middle-click.
And yeah, I have tried avant browser, its of poor design. MyIE2 (known now as maxthon) can flog it dead anyday!
And Maxthon can be modded as well, to use the gecko engine for page-rendering.

I WOULD have 5 invites too give out IF i could connect.. i get stuck on "Loading..." and when i do get in none of the links do anything... except logout...

@Bi0haZarD
What browser do you use?
And try clearing out all cookies and the cache, and logging in again.

any one still needing gmail

I never thought about it that way, but now that I (actually) think about it, the emails that comes attached with the topic subscriptions had been a major annoyance. All I can say is: Horray Gmail!

You should really consider getting a new mouse....

Personally, I think MyIE2 sucks compared to Avant, and I'm Chinese.

I have few gmail Invites, if someone needs one, please let me know by replying to this message with e-mail address.

Thank you.

12 Invites up for grabs.... PM me if you want one.

Minimun 20 Posts and if you have one don't be silly as you will have pleanty of your own invites.

I guess Msfn is all gmailed up no more takers

no... had plenty of takers. they have done what I asked and PM'd me. but sorry guys. all gone... for now.

still having 5... same rules

I have a few invites floating around.

Requirements? Just be helpful in answering others' questions and/or help to solve their problems in their threads. Help out in the MSFN community and stuff or something.

If you're really helpful and have great insight, ~10 would be enough

Hi i'd love an invite if anyone has one.

jaclaz

@Kullenen_Ask now you got your invitation!

@jaclaz I think u should contact me somehow so I can invite u

@XtremeMaC

Thanks a bunch, man, I got it!


jaclaz

Please invite me!

I will make love with you for 3 weeks

huh?
while there's no shortage of people who'd be willing to invite you without wanting anything in return, I suggest you edit your post above to remove the second line.

Risqueness on a tech-forum, sheesh, feels awkward!!!!!!!!
Simply not the impression we want to give to visitors.

"ninnox" was sent an account via the PM system upon request.

If he doesn't use it up within the next few days, I'll offer it up here in this thread.

I've have 5 invites to give away

iputerfixer.no.spam@gmail.com
yes, you have to delete the .no.spam for it to work
first 5 emails get's the invites, and don't anyone get greedy, or you'll get nothing at all

Hi it appears the most efficient method to get a gmail account is to post my e-mail address here.

.........


thanks in advance

the most efficient method it's to PM some1 who haves invites
PM me with your email if u still want 1 and delete your @ from post before

hi all, can i get an invitation too? im new here so can i get it as a prize hehee....i just wanna c how great is gmail . Thanks

Does this mean that Gmail last as a permanent account for earlier users, too?

hi lent, welcome here.
You should now PM your e-mail address to me or someone else who has announced that they have invites to give away, after asking in the thread that you want one.


@mazin
It is permanent. We are just one of the earlier users, sticking around since the time of testing, is all it means.

I don't understand! my bro who never uses his gmail got 6 invites to give away. I on the other hand use is constantly now. 2 weeks i am still not given any invites to give away. What is happening?!

spoke too soon.

I have 6 invites to give away. if you want it pm me

Thanks. I was confused by the word test.

@leckie has an invite

i have some invites here too

but they seem not to be working though.
i sent a few friends some and all of them said the links i sent them were invalid

anyone else getting this problem?

yeah, so an invitation I gave out got wasted.
I'll wait a bit, to see if google gets things sorted out

the thing is, i wasted 7 of them

now, i have to send them to my friends again (which is another 7)

hope Google sorts this out

All right. "ninox" already got one from someone else - so if anyone wants one, there's one up for grabs if you PM.

try sending them to yourself. then forwarding the message to your friend that is what i have been doing

alright...I got a couple of invites. Standard rules apply

Leckie,
You have been given an invite by me.

Cheers!

Ha ha...

Check the inbox of e-mail address that you PM'ed. Your prize has been sent!
Enjoy!

I have got two invites pending with me. Anyone still interested?

still have 6 left!

this thread it's becomming to big, now we don't know who has be given an invite and who not

hmm....
If people want to be generous, that's no problem at all!

Just use the "print this topic" function, press F3 to search for the member-name, to see whether they've been given an invite or not. Its better that we don't have multiple threads running, all of them giving out invites. This thread isn't all THAT big anyway....

problem it's not to be generous it's only i think if some1 has been given an invitation why other 1? just wait and you'll have lot of invites
about that tip thanks! i didn't know about that!
i agree about it's better maintain only 1 thread running about gmail

Who has enough time to compile a nice, neat, colourful (jk) chart of people who have gmail already? Nobody? Oh, that's too bad....send me a invite at emailaddress@gmail.com

P.S. I sent myself an invite and Google says the invite link is already used?!?!
