Domain admin-mod.de gone for good

The German web presence for Admin Mod used to be reachable under two domains: adminmod.de and admin-mod.de. In the beginning neither of the domains were registered by the Admin Mod Team but by other individuals. Although this worked well for some years, we have gone through quite some trouble over the last years as those people started to lose interest and eventually sold the domains. This has led to the web pages being unavailable from time to time under either one or the other web address. In the meantime the Admin Mod Team was lucky enough to acquire the adminmod.de domain (thank God for that) but wasn't able to get into possession of admin-mod.de, too.
Which brings us to today where we're once again facing the situation that the current owner of admin-mod.de has no interest in using that domain for Admin Mod. In fact, we were lucky enough to copy the German web presence to a backup server since it was hosted on a server owned by the same guy which is now gone. So we now have the German web pages hosted on our own server and under adminmod.de owned by us. Unfortunately the owner of admin-mod.de got a little greedy and is asking a ridiculous price for admin-mod.de which we are not willing to pay. That means that we have to say Good-bye to admin-mod.de once and for all.
So the domain admin-mod.de is no longer a valid address for the German Admin Mod web presence. I presume that noone will pay the price asked and thus it will one day go the way of all domains: hogged by some domain grabber presenting dubious ads under it.
Please change any links pointing to admin-mod.de that you still have to adminmod.de and let us know if you find any old links on our web pages or in the forums that still point to admin-mod.de. Sorry for the trouble. That's what you get sometimes for relying on other people. |
