Anyone else check in to Do the Ton?

Looks like they've got a domain issue -- page now shows an ad for "namecheap" and says the domain name was recently registered there. No content.

Although that place had become kind of overrun by cranks and #$%*s with a good sprinkling of racism here and there, there was some worthwhile content. All gone?

Pulls up on my tablet, not on my phone.

Maybe thats why its so slow today. Wont come up on my phone either.

Hmm... I'm on a laptop and it ain't there. Wonder what's up. I honestly have no idea how much DCC gets from DTT in terms of exposure --plenty of people talk #$%* about what DCC sells all the time, sometimes for good reasons -- but I wonder if they've had their domain expire and get nabbed what someone would try to make them pay to get it back.

Or it could be some other kind of glitch, guess I'll wait and see.

I doubt the domain has been bought or the site wouldnt come up on my pc, right?

J-Rod10 · « **Reply #5 on:** January 30, 2016, 02:19:07 PM »

I can't imagine Tim letting the domain expire. You get a billion renewal notices.

DohcBikes · « **Reply #6 on:** January 30, 2016, 02:23:14 PM »

Uh oh. Something just happened and I cant log on at all with any device how bout you jrod

DohcBikes · « **Reply #9 on:** January 30, 2016, 02:29:25 PM »

Well thats really weird. I was posting five minutes ago and now nothing.

DohcBikes · « **Reply #10 on:** January 30, 2016, 02:31:35 PM »

I feel bad for all the members how are they supposed to connect now? If Do The Ton had a Facebook group or email list they could keep going during the outage, or while the issue gets resolved.

J-Rod10 · « **Reply #12 on:** January 30, 2016, 07:01:53 PM »

There is a Facebook page.

DohcBikes · « **Reply #13 on:** January 30, 2016, 07:04:54 PM »

I dont have facebook. No access on any device at the moment.

In general(that means I am generalizing, not talking about everyone without exception, got it?) that is a forum for poorly designed, low performance, no go show pony's built by trendy hipster douchebags

I've been over there busting chops for that exact reason the last few months. (there may be a couple people here that can attest to that) and I have no mercy when it comes to functionality. Really I can be relentless if they choose to be ignorant. Lots of them seem to be coming around.

Site seems to be up, you're safe, for now.

Poorly built cafes have always been around.. Inexperienced folks want to do what they envy others doing..
That same thing goes on in the chopper world as well..
, i feel to a certain extent, that the experienced..should spread the knowledge around a bit..

J-Rod10 · « **Reply #22 on:** January 30, 2016, 08:25:28 PM »

Those guys have been getting their ass chewed regularly.

Granted, that's the nature of the business. People see #$%* on Pipeburn, and emulate it. Often making a poor design, poorer.

So it seems you've decided to come here to bust chops?
