inside3d.com domain expired
If you visit inside3d.com right now, you will be greeted by a SEO spam page by Network Solutions, the domain’s registrar. inside3d.com is owned by the annoying “TeleFragged LLC, AtomicGamer”. It is the last company-owned content generating Quake site we rely on and personally I think it would be best if it would become independent sooner than later. Anyways, back to the issue at hand.
The domain expired. Right now it is held in some kind of grace period. If I recall correctly it has happened before, 2-3 years ago. The owner renewed it. If the owner will not renew it this time, one could enter a “backordering” process (see the placeholder site) and try to buy the domain before any domain grabbing spam filth, that would cost a considerable amount of money though. I would give up to 100$ (from the bounty fund) to that if we can finally get the domain into the active community (and only if there is a sensible backup strategy). I mirrored the site 6 weeks ago, so theoretically a loss would not be as devastating as the quakesrc.org one.
I am quite confident that everything will turn out alright. There will be no armageddon.
PS: inside3d.org is available.
