CSR is experiencing issues with it's DNS resolution. If you're reading this, you're one of the lucky ones who can still access this site. Please visit http://icabbit.slightofcode.com/yabbse/ for more information on what's going on. We will be using that site (iCabbit) as a temporary news spot until CSR is fully back online. Please share this information with anyone you know from CSR. I am depedning on word of mouth to keep everyone informed. Sorry for the inconvenience all.

So Porter, when are you gonna tell us the real reason behind the technical difficulty, and when are you going to tell everyone I figured out what really happened right away?

Okay okay, sheesh!
So what really happened was not RG's fault at all. Neither (thankfully) was it mine. Anybody who paying close attention might have noticed that this problem cropped up only a couple days after CSR's birthday. This means it's also a couple days after we got our new domain name: csreloaded.com. This domain was registered through WMS along with a web hosting plan which was the ORIGINAL home of the csreloaded.com website.
That site eventually got replaced by this one, but the domain still remained in the name of an employee from WMS. Unfortunately, he was the only one that got any kind of notification that the domain's registration was goign to expire, and THAT is what really happened. As some of you may have guessed by now, the domain is registered through godaddy.com, which is why we all started seeing a Domain Parking page.
The reason why I was slightly misleading while this was going on was because the only thing protecting our domain name was the "courtesy period" provided by godaddy.com. We had to make sure nobody else swooped in and stole the domain out from under us. I apologize for the the deception, but it was critical that we make sure we secured the domain before letting people know.
Deuce is anxious for me to explain all this because, (along with neo_sable and Slight) he more or less figured this out on his own. So kudos to you couple detectives out there!

Just gives us (you) better incentive to be that much more watchful down the road. Besides, this year's on me Ribs. You just get the rest of the things in that last email worked out, alright?

I had pretty much guessed this too. When I looked up who owned the domain it was some chinese bloke I'd never heard of.....
