But Why did the .com get snipped? :eek:

When I saw it was expired, and it would let me pay for an additional year, I figured the $15 for it was very little compared to the advice and information I get from this forum, so I went ahead and told it to do so. I didn't get an e-mail about it yet, however it could have been lost in all my other junk mail. But the page did change to indicate the domain name was paid for so I figured it was fine.

So you paid for it, then? Not Chad? :eek:

I'm just glad it's back. Phew.

When I went to the site the night it went down, and followed the links to pay for the domain name, it CLEARLY stated that all I was doing was paying for one additional year for the CURRENT OWNER and the registration would NOT change. It never indicated I could take it over.

Well yes, Chad has been rather busy in recent times, even after his return, given that he's just left his business and such. It's possible he missed the domain's expiry because of that. It's back though, and it looks like he registered it.

The rest of us should probably have monitored it too, since we've already had bad experience with domains. Next time.

Well, when I went to webmaster-forums.net a couple days ago, it said the domain had expired, and I could, if I so desired have snatched it up for $14.95 apparently, so.... someone dropped the ball.

ROTFLMAO! :roll:
