I was lookin around dif sites to see their news architecture and i noticed that www.akadot.com wasn't akadot anymore. Or at least, it doesn't seem to be to me. I searched for akadot on google, and I have the right address..

It loads up as "Future home of a Dotster Registered Domain"..

Am i really really late in finding this out (i haven't checked the site in a long time).. or is this a consequence of the digital manga problems/splitup?

Nope, this has happenned within the past 24 hours.

I doubt it has anything to do with the DM issues, someone forgot to continue the domain name, and they go squatted.

Arbitration costs $1000, so Dotster probably will sell it back to them for $500-$800...

Gotta hate these people. At the same time, someone at Akadot deserves to be slapped.

Are you sure?

If its because of that, a LOT of people at akadot deserve to get smacked.. I can't believe that they'd forget to do something that fundamental; thats why i didn't even list it as a possibility..
