[support] site with no email requirement

Fri Sep 14 06:15:01 UTC 2007

im not sure I understand. how will i get his username when he is still
registering? i would do this trick on the my account page too? is
there also a way to just keep the email field optional rather than
hide it completely?

thanks a lot for all your help,
nick
