dunefreak Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 What a disaster! So last month many of you probably remember this, Well we got that mess all handled or so we thought! I get a text from @EY3BA11 a week or two ago asking if I had changed the domain over to GoDaddy. NOPE! Well here's what happened. The company, who our domain was registered through, ACTUALLY FAILED TO RENEW our domain in August. When I contacted them to say WTF, the 30 day grace period was already up and it was long gone. There no getting it back! When they manually renewed it in their system, someone screwed up and it didn't actually renew it. I was furious. I had to hire a domain broker to get it back now I'm out thousands of dollars. It cost an arm and a leg to get it back. So now I am hoping members can step up to help cover the costs. Please donate whatever you can even if it's 5 bucks. I was going to scrap the whole damn thing, but I know this site means alot to many people. Below is the link where you can donate. Thanks guys 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svengoolie Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 😀 I also disabled my adblocker even though there isn't a lot of ads. Thanks for keeping her going. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 Thanks @Svengoolie. I took down the Amazon ads since we have raised some extra funds to help pay for site hosting costs. Nobody was clicking them anyways so they didn't help. I updated the news article on the homepage, but I will do the same here. UPDATE! We have reached our goal to cover the expenses! Thank you guys for donating. Any additional donations will still go towards the site to cover our hosting/ maintenance expenses. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
