FurBid domain troubles: resolved?

Your rating: None Average: 5 (1 vote)

Hiya everyfur

I have been informed by my registrar that the .ws namespace experienced some problems last night, resulting in a bunch of domain names being redirected to Under Construction pages instead of the correct IP addresses. Furbid.ws appears to be back online, for the
most part; the correct IP address has propagated again. Please let me know if you're still getting that Under Construction page. Contact address: aatheus@transfur.com

I've extended any auctions that would have closed during the domain name downtime. Let me reiterate: the furbid.ws disappearence was in no way related to FurBid's server or connectivity. Nic.ws screwed up our record's propagated data.

If you're still having trouble accessing FurBid, http://furbid.transform.to is still online, or you can access directly via IP (http://198.137.201.181). I apologize for their screwup.

I tried furrybid.transform.to as soon as I encountered name trouble with furbid's new location.

While the site loaded properly, auction pages could not be viewed, because they had absolute URLs pointing to furbid.ws. This should probably be tweaked if you want the transform.to address to work as a fallback.

Keep up the good work }:>.
