Thumbs up Banning of disposable email domains

If you use email confirmation, and don't want future members using anonymous/disposable/temporary emails to register, then you can add the below ones under vBulletin Options/User Banning Options/Banned Email Addresses. Most people that use these will prolly just spam your board, so it'll prevent future headaches from occuring by banning them now.

I think this is a personal preference.. It's almost a catch 22 b/c while you will lose some members you will also lose some spam..

But isn't the whole point of registering on a website is to be or become part of that community? If so why would someone want to register with a throw away email address that they'll use just for email confirmation?

Some people just don't like to give a way their email address.
