WebsiteRob: It's actually in the TOS, which I mistook as the thing you agree to when you sign-up. Sorry about that. The new TOS is currently being worked on here at TWF, and should be out soon. As a moderator here I personally give a warning out for the first offense, and then if I see the more of it, then I talk with my follow moderators and admins as to whether the person should be banned, etc...

If you have any other questions concerning this direct them to me, and please don't post it to this thread. Thanks...

Justin, do you have a link to these "rules" you mentioned? I looked at The Forum Rules for Adults but could not find what you were referencing about. Although every Forum page has a link to the FAQ's, the only one I could find for TOS (on the main page) is not yet a link.

I agree that if everyone follows the same rules, it makes it easier for everyone. I wasn't aware of a "one strike and your out" policy and just want to make sure I'm reading out of the same Rule book.

Thanks

Well, it's all speedy and no nonsense for most of the part.
although when the nonsense DOES come...it's horrid!

imagine having to always return to the main page and navigate thru a myriad of links and then reentering your credentials again and again for EVERY change e.g. DNS, server 1!! they really gotta plan out their control panel better.

Good choice going with Gandi. How did they turn out? DomainInfo looks too expensive for my taste.

OpenSRS is an excellent service, and all of their resellers can definitely be trusted. They have a great operation going. You might want to let your brother know about them. And maybe also CORE, since they accredit registrars also, like ICANN.

Finally, joelmoss: don't advertise your service like that on these forums. If I see it again I'll have to ban you. Check out our rules and you'll see what you agreed to when you signed up.

HomepageNames is a reseller of OpenSRS, who are an ICANN accredited registrar. OpenSRS is part of Tucows.

heh joel i was just joking man!

well, sorry to dissapoint you but me & my bro went with gandi.net.

well he (yes he with THE credit card) was endlessly talking bout ICANN Accredition...and well we couldnt find HPN on ICANN's web.

nonetheless, domaininfo was a little steep on price (US49 initial two years) to be paid in advance...and dotster's policy was quite discouraging, noting that they maintain the authority to remove domains under them, with their sole discretion, within 7 days notice. now thats really screwed up if u ask me.

inww.com was also on the steeper side of pricing.

so far so good..

I'm not trying to be a salesman - I'm not a salesman! I am just trying to tell you the differences and make you all aware of what else is out there.
