News: about the domain name and hosting.

Post by Kozak »

As most of you have noticed our domain expired and though we have a new host we have problems getting our domain name transfered. We are working on it, so don't worry about the current events.

Our site will experience a complete overhaul to make it faster, better to browse and easier for us to maintain. We might ditch some old concepts from our site but this is an overhaul that will probably last 50 years.


Yours truly,
Kozak

Even I noticed the slowness on DSL. Honestly though, I don't see the point of having dialup anymore, when Verizon and Yahoo both have DSL for $15/month, only $5 more than the cheapest dialup services.

Ok guys an update.

The domain name now costs 200$ but will be free in 2 months. Should we register another domain or wait for those 2 months?

What do you guys think?

In order to preserve the maxcoderz name, and not to lose traffic to the forums and main site I think you guys should have a temp. site till the other is available. But it is up to you guys.

HOLY $%?t that's the most expensive domain name I ever saw. I would say either:

1) wait
2) buy maxcoderz.org or rebuy maxcoderz.net
3) get a dyndns.org static domain name

I wouldnt pay $200 for a domain name :shock:

If you do decide to buy the domain, maybe you guys should set up an online donation thing, I would be willing to donate a couple bucks, and if everyone did...
