Absolutely, positively, never ever turn off this forum.

My plan to snatch up oddworldforums.net has amount to naught, I'm afraid. I guess Sydney decided to renew ownership after the 10yr deadline passed (on the same day). Or it was set to auto-renew after the 10yrs.

No, just that Sydney continues to be the proprietary owner of the oddworldforums.net domain name.

Yes, except that this universe she hasn't owned it for almost two decades. Kristen owns the domain.

And the importance of having that one particular domain as opposed to any other is... ?

As if I knew that they were two different people.

It's the one people know exists?

I would point out that they have different names, but Kristen has had at least three names on OWF so far. The main thing to remember is that there was never a coup against Kristen.

Exists is a bit of a stretch in the light of the current DNS situation, and there's few enough active people to just inform them of a change.

here's how owf can still be active!

RoryF · #13 02-18-2021, 01:57 PM

Just send an email titled 'gimme the domain rn' and be patient.

It's a relative metric.
