if you look at http://oolite.org you can see the browser gets a response.
after the interception, the domain was simply set to an auction site with all the consequences...

It is also interesting that a renewal is still priced at the same amount as it was before. Which could mean if Ahruman came back and asked for the domain.... But that is unlikely to happen.
No. After the pendingDelete status, the previous owner has nothing to do with the domain.

sorry, what's going on?
If you're referring to the wings pics, I had to counter that ghastly image posted by cbr.
I asked if this is regular 'business' for domain stuff and expressed my shock visual ( as confirmed by Cody :lol: )...

Sorry to confuse you with wings :oops:

I'm still shaking my head at that final price - insane! Thing is, what's aegidian.org worth?
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

I worked for a while at a domain registrar, I developed a logic that evaluates the cost of domains by title and keywords... for some domains $(n*10)k is normal... and some cost $(n*100)k

I don't know why anyone would want oolite.org - obviously the community will lose interest in it after a short amount of time.

= - = - = - = - = - = - = - =

well... so...

Moving everything to oolite.space ?

I ask you to understand me correctly - I do not insist and do not impose it!

If you (everyone who is active in the oolite life) support moving to oolite.space, then so be it.
We can organize domain names the way we want - for example, bb.oolite.space as a forum alias, wiki.oolite.space as a wiki alias, etc.

Domain registration can be transfer to CloudFlare, where accounts can be created for anyone willing to watch and pay for the domain... Just one point... for example, now I can prepay a domain for 5 years, and next year for another 5 years... (I'm really ready to do this) and all DNS records management will be on the CF. If we transfer the domain registration to the CF, I won't be able to pay for it... Life forces us to solve issues that we don't want :(

I like the idea of nailing it down for five years, then another five years!

em...

= - = - = - = - = - =
in my previous post:
СF as an example of a registrar, in his place can be GoDaddy, etc.
I mention the CF because we use it to build a new infrastructure for our sites, and it would make sense to organize everything in one place.

in fact, maybe 9 years at once for one payment, but for this I need to take a good shot of Scotch whiskey.

Not sure if that is a good idea.

If it is for too long, then everyone in this community will have forgotten about the deal. And the same events will repeat - the domain gets lost and another one has to be built up. Let's stick to shorter intervals without getting too tedious.

And somehow I believe we should end up at more than two and no more than five years.

No just make it a combination lock code to a time capsule one of us buries in a Greenland glacier.

Scrolling through twitter/Oolite... that's history...
There is a link to oolite.org and we can't do anything about it.
Maybe create some "Inactive" subsection on the site's Community page?
