Ya, I dont have the myspace added, but I found it and saw the blog and was like, "OH."

Add me to the list who didn't get the email, sorry Lex.

I just sent another, I think I did it wrong the first time. So cross your fingers, and please let me know if you get it. Thanks

I think the reason I didnt get the email was because I had the "Dont allow members to contact me via email" box checked for some reason.

Got it. In my preferences it says forum members can't contact me by email, but that admin can send newsletters, so I guess that's why it worked this time? Thanks Lex. Smile

Wait, so I just read the Myspace bulletin. GoDaddy bought the forum domain name out from under you? WTF.

I haven't gotten either message - my settings are:
Yes to email by website form
Yes to newsletters
No for "Warn me of PM from PM mailing"

Lex, can you make a global change to all profiles to allow forwarding of admin messages? By the time we figure out the clue for making e-mail work the regular domain name hopefully will be fixed. :-)

They never informed me that it was expiring, I mean I should have known on my own...but I just got busy I guess. So I realized the site wasn't working, so I was like oh I gotta renew it. It had been inactive for an hour and Go Daddy took it, what a bunch of shiesters huh? But on my admin page it says 'domain renewal in process' so apparently it's just taking a while. I emailed Go Daddy, but they haven't gotten back to me yet. I'm not sure if I can change everyone's settings, but I'll look into it. But you're right, probably right when I figure it out...the old domain will be up and running.

I think you have a grace period after expiration to renew it, so they probably just locked it in their name to keep somebody else from trying to buy it out from under you. Did you just pay for a 1 year renewal? If so, all of us will mark our calendars to remind you next January!!!

Yea, I read their terms and it says that you have 52 days so we're fine. Yes, please remind me next year. But hopefully next year I won't be apartment hunting...I can only take so much of that.

Does it cost a lot to renew the name? I know nothing of running websites.

Nope. I could probably save money by doing a 2 year renewal, but it's too late for this year.

I just realised why I've had no trouble. I still use the old domain name anyway, I never did update my bookmarks.

Haha, win.
