This domain was recently renewed. I was thinking it was going to be renewed by the end of this month.

Well to ensure no interruption in service, you have to do it well before the expry date.

Question: When it says experation date, does that mean this forum will no longer exist?

What happens on the expiration date is that the name gets yanked from the DNS. So nobody can find your server until you renew the name. All the stuff would still be on the server though

Since I have a domain of my own, I know that.

What I didn't know is when this one came to be.

Sorry if this has already been asked but i am confused (its a common ailment for me) anyho when will the change be occuring and how will we be notified...

At this point I'm lost too. Anyone care to summarize?

What should happen is that the old site should have a 'you are using an old bookmark to The Pack. Please update your links to http://example. com. You will be redirected in 5 seconds.'

Actually you should use a redirect, since HTML refresh messes up the 'back' button on browsers.

Uh, the example link is broken. I just get a 404 error.



[spoiler](Yes, I'm kidding. I know it's an example.)[/spoiler]

So are we still trying to figure out a good new site domain name for the Pack?

Or is it already happened and iam behind the times

Aaaaah

The site is still 'Untitled'.

thats what bookmarks are for, SW.

And cooky's.

I should like to point out the the following 3 domains ARE available.

theonepack.com

theonepack.net

theonepack.org

Don't know if this even matters, or if folks like it either.

Edit: Also available for .com .org and .net is

wearethepack

Ah, but typing in http://www.longlivethepack.com shows me that a domain has already been purchased and is simply forwarding into a test page.

So all is otherwise moot.

um....ya is it ever gonna happen?

and if it does are we gonna have to start over again?

Start what over again?

Posts, names, all that stuff

Nope.

Now that you mention it, it's August 2006, and we're still here--well aware that this post will itself look old when someone is reading it and it's no longer August 2006. (Hello, 2009. How's the practice going? Now that the truck's paid off, are you going to get that new Lexus LX500h hybrid?)

How about we just leave it the way it is. I like the domain name. Their can be nothing better.
