Weee! Finally got a domain!

[imported_LoKe]

Let me start from the beginning.

T3C was feeling incredibly generous and decided to give always one of his domain names; always-cheaper.com. This was to be given out at random, but we all agreed that RossMAN was the one who deserved it most, and could put it to use.

So, T3C decided to give away a second domain name. This one would be given to a random person, and they'd even get to chose the domain name they wanted! Luckily and amazingly, I was chosen to receive a domain name.

After days of me requesting name after name, because someone decided to stela each of my names, we finally grabbed out that wasn't taken. T3C was incredibly patient with me and all my stupid questions.

I'd like to thank T3C so much for being so generous; this is my very first actual domain.

Also, DeviousTrap spent the time to explain to me exactly how to get my domain to point to the free hosting he's generously offering to AT members, which can be found here. Now, I have a domain and hosting.

Thanks, both of you!

I've got no money to my name. I'm tied up with school and my apprenticeship that I'm unable to get a real job, for now.

You don't have $8.99? How do you eat? Pay for gas? Pay for porn?

Yeah, if I'd realized, I'd have gotten you a domain.

Edit: Congrats tho'

By the by, I finally published the site that I was working on last summer when I pestered you about site development questions.

I'm 18 and live with my parents. I moved up to London a little while back, had to leave my job and I've spent what I had saved.

Did you do the layout and PHP for the site or are you using a CMS, etc?

Smells like a CMS, but LoKe knows his stuff, so I'd bet it's homebrewed.

n00b. Nobody pays for porn.

 

[imported_LoKe]

Not a CMS. Last time I touched a CMS was PHP-Nuke ages ago. Realized the mistake that was and deleted it asap.

Howbrewed, FTW!

It's still in the works, so there's a lot missing. Just, now I have some incentive to work on it.

Next step : Find some money to get some hosting when the last four months of my free hosting runs out, hah.

I really don't understand how someone could "steal" a domian that doesn't even belong to you?

I had posted some name ideas in a thread. Someone then proceeded to "steal" the ideas, and register them all.

That is not stealing sir.

It's morally wrong.

Call it what you will, I consider it stealing.

Morally wrong? That's a good one.

Perhaps if you would have used some discretion, you would not have this problem.

I am sure there are many lurkers on this board.
