The Toolkitzone domain expired on Halloween and someone didn't renew it!
-
Quick... someone buy it up!
:p
.......
-
Too late, a cybersquatter's already got it
-
I'm actually worried now.
-
lol Razz
kinda weird how you were allowed on, and I wasn't. :
-
Gah ha ha!
He has a grace period to renew it.
If he doesn't, it's mine!
-
Not if I get it first! Very Happy
-
it went down and then up again
but then it went down
now it's up again
i don't know how the internet works
-
well it seems to be down again…
Will the result in data being lost? Such as user profiles and such?
-
nah, it's just the domain
-
Yeah, Domain names are typically separate from hosting accounts. We'd actually be able to get to TKZ if we knew the IP address, though you wouldn't be able to log-in. Vampz had turned thesixthzone.com into an alternate URL, but it expired months ago, and again, you couldn't log in from there either. I Text Messaged Vampz yesterday about it, but I honestly don't even know if that's his current cell number, so I don't know if he got it or not. I'm sure he'll realize it soon enough, if he hasn't already.

Gather all the members and send them to MS Very Happy.

I want it.
His cell.

He called me a sarcastic fuck when I said "good job Sad " Razz
-
No, it was "sarcastic little fuck". The "little" is important.
Anyway, the problem right now is my dear registrar keeps telling me I don't have enough funds to renew, despite there being twice as much shown on my remaining domain funds. It deducts the cost then tells me I don't have enough and refunds it. I've sent e-mails off but these guys are notoriously bad at customer support (i.e. they never respond). But I presume this is something they'd want to fix, heh.
-
Don't you have "Xavier" username?
When will we be on again? Any ideas? :
-
We'd be back a few hours after they fix their payment system. I have no idea when they'll fix it, I'm hoping the company isn't cutting loose and running away with everyone's deposited funds.
-
Bollocks, me too, I just tried registering a domain with them like three hours ago Sad
However I am kinda glad it's not just me. I've had trouble with their registration in the past and their reply was "No-one else is having problems, you're doing something wrong."

Is it just me or is the registrar site now down too? Oh man, this could get ugly...
-
Registrar site back up, but still can't renew.
While I fight to get the .com back, tell everyone that the .net alternative will be working by the end of today (already does for me, but can take time to propogate across the entire internet, so give it a few hours).
-
Good job. Smile
.......
-
Just got this;
Sadly [company] is pretty much defunct now, the original operators having
vanished off into the sunset, support has been non-existant for almost a
year.
If you have recently made a deposit into your account, you should contact
paypal/your card issuer and organise claiming it back, as it is unlikely you
will be able to "spend" it.
Ugh. Strange how my e-mail to their support ends up going to another seller.

Remember the days of "The Customer Is Always Right?"
Now we seem to have "The Customer Is Obviously Doing Something Wrong Because Hes A N00b, LOlzz!!11"
sometimes you just want to spank the servery people for being gold-digging swines.
All we ask is that they allow the wonderful community, This royal throne of kings, this scepter'd isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise, This fortress built by Nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea, Which serves it in the office of a wall, Or as a moat defensive to a house, Against the envy of less happier lands, This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this Toolkitzone to remain active so that we can all upload our games and stuff.

Propogated for me! Very Happy

toolkitzone.net works for me, though I'm all alone Razz
-
As you should be. WANKER!
-

-
They could just run off with all the domains registered then everybody would have to come to Mystic Software!
-
Ouch.
Xav, I'd go with godaddy.com if/when you get it back. Been using them for several years for several domains without a hitch. (Despite the general retardedness of their user interface. Heh...)
-
Yeah, that's where I went for the .net domain. I've now e-mailed to enom.com, appears my company are (were) a reseller for them, and asked them to give me the EPP codes required to transfer. See what happens.
-
I also use GoDaddy for IDS (:
-
(sorry to bump)
Ah, are you getting anywhere with enom then? Cos I'll have to get me some of them EPP codes too.
Headache I didn't need.
-
No reply yet from eNom. I'm now opening a tentative dialogue with Othello to see what exactly they're going to do and for how much. I just want my domains out of xReg and (eventually) into GoDaddy. Might cost me though Sad
-
Man, when you told me the other day that it was working, I thought you meant the .com, and not the .net. Kept wondering why it still wasn't working for me, lol.
-
Talyn, great news! eNom finally got back to me and without question sent the EPP codes (which you need to authorise transfers) to the e-mails of the registrants (thankfully toolkitzone.com had my most recent hotmail e-mail address). So looks like there's no need to go through that silly Othello thing or bother with Nominent claims!
I'll put the transfers through and see if they work. If they do, I'll send you the e-mail I wrote so you can copy the style (since it's sent to their legal department) and we'll be free! FREE!
Hopefully this means the .com will be back tomorrow! Yay.
-
Processed the transfers, but it requires further authorisation from the current registrar apparently. I believe this isn't eNom but xReg, which is bad since they arn't there to confirm...heh. However, I do remember reading somewhere that there's a deadline to their response and if it isn't met then it is considered authorised, something like 5 days. So a slight delay, but hopefully the transfers will still go through this week.
-
Awesome news about eNom getting back to you! Sending that email to me would be great thanks, really appreciate it. If you could throw it at my Gmail account (alex dot gisby at gmail dot com) that would be awesome Smile
Thanks for keeping me updated. Hopefully the 5 day trick will work. It sounds about right, I remember reading something similar somewhere.
-
Just wanted to say that the .com domain seems to be working for me now. (:
-
Is tkz down for anyone? :
-
I tried it... yeah, for me it is. MS *JUST* recovered from the exact same problem, though I'm not quite sure what it was.
-
Yeah, its down alright. Pinging works from the cmd prompt, but no joy on attempts with FF.
-
The primary purpose for Mysticsoftware.net is now for several TKZ members to verify that TKZ is indeed down.
-
Indeed, I bet It's the most traffic since November. Very Happy

Interesting.
We seem to have an odd case of randomly self-deleting files around here at MS. Just a few weeks ago darkagegames.net mysteriously got wiped (was a pain to re-upload). Just the other day I had to re-install these forums. I suspect some files got deleted or corrupted there. Xav doesn't have rackhost dose he? ;)
-
I believe he used to. Razz
-
According to the whois information from Toolkitzone's domain registrar (goDaddy), toolkitzone is hosted by hostgator, or at least that's who is serving the DNS.
-
I guess TKZ is down till Xavier gets back. That means I might actualy have to work on my game Shocked

Dates: Created 31-oct-2003 Updated 07-nov-2007 Expires 31-oct-2009
2009...not 2008....why did it expire?
-
If it says it couldn't've expired, then it probably didn't.
As I mentioned, MS has just recovered from a similar event - where all the code was deleted. It's probable that the same thing is happening on TKZ.
-
Updated 07-nov-2007
Which is when this topic was originally posted. This forum is practically dead other than when TKZ is down.
