I thought EQemu already required an email validation for all new registrations... am I wrong on this? Also, blocking the well known "free" email providers is really not a great solution. I would be curious to see how many people use e-mails that are not associated with the ones you listed.

There is also a reason that the EQemu account creation is automated. I am sure the volume in which accounts are created is beyond the number in which they want to have people checking. Systems are in place to detect if it is a human is the one creating the account, but a system to check if a douchbag is creating the account is much more complex and time consuming.

Yea - just sending out ideas
