leg4 · 06-01-2004, 03:54 PM

Unfucking real.
Without even any notice...

I just noticed that the domain name wasn't coming up

And did some research into it.

What registars do you guys use?

I have a number of domains with GoDaddy and so far no problem. Can anyone suggest someone else for future domain purchases so not all of my eggs are in one basket just in case?

leg4 · 06-01-2004, 03:58 PM

Perhaps you haven't spammed but most spammers have no problem hijacking an insecure box and STEALING YOUR bandwidth and resources. And guess who gets blamed?

Go to openrbl.org and maybe google groups and type in your domain/IP. See what comes up. You might be a spam source and not know it.

You get what you pay for.

Directnic is a little more expensive but you won't have those problems and enjoy top notch support!

m00d · 06-01-2004, 04:50 PM

yep,they can and they do

leg4 · 06-01-2004, 04:59 PM

Directnic sucks... in the past---I've had problems with them also...

Because one of my domains had a bad phone# attached to it.

I mean when you have a tons of domains--- how can you watch every fucking one...?

Call me -- or email me... dont just lock the shit you prick cocksuckas.

leg4 · 06-01-2004, 06:22 PM

Who does everyone use...

I'd try namecheap.com too . . good support. A friend of mine had the exact same thing happen with godaddy . . . it was one of those spoofed addresses in the email from field (they didnt even read the headers the dumb godaddy tards) . Threaten to suit them and tell them to produce the offending emails. I bet it's the same case. They close your acct or hijack your name for no reason because they have 12 year olds who use a FAQ and their feeble minds to run support so standard protocol for a spam complaint.
step 1. Tell complaintant you are sorry
step 2. shut off domain.
They don't have people smart enough to read email headers or investigate a complaint.

Godaddy alternative:

Namecheap: not ICANN accredited, but I like their paypal option.

Enom: get a subaccount from some one, or create your own reseller account if you own a bunch.

registerfly

Dotster

Ev1

I use mostly Godaddy, but also namecheap and reg. fly. Never had a problem w/ GD so far. I like their .us/.biz/.info price.
