Sorry if this is common knowledge, but what happened to the forum?

Yes, saw that Nova, but I guess my question was more along the lines of how that could have happened because hijacking a domain is not easy these days, and registrars usually give ample warning to pay the small renewal fee before allowing a registered domain to be resold.

Anyway...

Why not just use a sub domain of devcoin.org like forum.devcoin.org?

TT

Hi Tsquared, there has been a bit of a breakdown of communication. I'm not entirely sure who originally had the coinzen.org domain, the people who were supposed to have it didn't. Tenthirtyone was the forum administrator, but said he wanted to hand it over to someone else a few months ago, and we've been looking for another solution. The domain name issue came into being recently, and I'm not sure if they're related. Tenthirtyone could probably clear that up for us.

In any case, I like your suggestion too. It's simple and clean enough for our purposes. I *think* Jasinlee has devcoin.org, so we can probably get him to add the sub. Fuzzybear, I believe shattienator had already got the forum replacement ready with a backup of the old one - Nova, do you know the status of this?

Yes, Shattienator has agreed to take on the Forum hosting once all is ready. He has been supplied with a backup of the old forum's DB to get things going. Ashleysly has already been named to the position to handle the day to day administrating of the forum and will be working on its rebranding of being DevCoin specific in nature.

I am ready to start whenever it is possible!
