Unfortunatly these people will not care about a small pe!@#$%^&*ion. They care about money, money and money. Also on a nice day like today they will be thinking about money.

 

The only way we will get this domain back is to sweet talk them a bit and offer a payment of some form. As i said they may be more willing to cooperate if we inform them that we a donation dependant community keen to retain its !@#$%^&*ests for the player base.

 

I will try to e-mail them this evening, probably a waste of time but i can see where it gets me.

would be far easier and cheaper to email all the sites that using the subspacehq.com address and update them to the new addresses.

 

google "link:www.subspace.net"

google "link:www.subspacehq.com"

 

contact the websites with updated urls.

wtf is with the bull!@#$%^&* names...

cmon people, if we want to be taken seriously, at least put ur first name...

dont do this:

John Doe

Hugh J!@#$%^&*

Squamish Hardcore Climb

One Of Many

haha i am Squamish Hardcore Climb.

 

what is up with you guys with SSHQ anyways? It's not like it contributed anything good to the community, except for its ban form which can be duplicated... I mean come on... what's so special about SSHQ?

 

oh and by the way, for those of you who think that people depend on subspacehq as their main source of news: news flash - the site is RARELY visited by anybody and is mostly visited by people who already use SSForum and are tuned in to the news already. There is barely any traffic for sshq to merit its return.

for a pe!@#$%^&*ion, you need your real name, or no one is going to take it seriously

 

i put the game nick field there to not attract other people that arent part of the community...

 

in hindsight, i suspect it would have helped us :/

Like the owners are going to give a !@#$%^&* anyways. We mean nothing to them. And the people who do know sshq will now see Galactic and be like oooo ahhh.

 

Noone is going to take an "Internet" pe!@#$%^&*ion seriously. Real or fake names.

I have been in contact with the company that owns the name.

 

I, through my company, offered to purchase the name for a client, about a month ago.

 

They quite politely told me that they unfortunately are not interested in parting with the name at this time, but if in the future they do decide to sell the domain name, they will keep my business on record as a prospective buyer.

 

AKA - Forget getting the name.

Just for funsies, you guys should know that I was contacted by the jerkfaces who got the domain when it expired from Minbari's account. They said that if I gave them $250 for a year they would point the domain to whatever DNS I specified. That's right: I didn't even get the domain transfered to me for that princely sum. I promptly told them how to correctly employ the business end of an auger.

 

Also, for those of you who don't know, SSHQ morfed in to www.ssbase.com when I lost the domain. I don't do news anymore but it still gets some traffic and it will probably be the central distribution point for the new version of Continuum along with SSDL.
