www.cumbrianscoobs.co.uk is now back!!!
 

NORMAL SERVICE NOW RESUMED

It is highly likely that the Cumbrian Scoobs website will go down tonight or in the near furture as our web address has been accidently sold by Nominet UK. We are trying to sort this but it is likely that the current web address is gone.



Thanks

Gaz

How can a web address be 'accidentally' sold?

If you owned it?

If they have genuinly cocked up THEY need to rectify it!

Unless the domain was not locked by the owner.

I dont know the answer to either of these questions guys, all I know that it has happened and it now needs fixing.

As far as I am aware Nominat have accepted liability

Website content still available, but needs to be accessed via:

www.CumbrianScoobs.co.uk - website of the Subaru in Cumbria

aka Westmorland & Cumberland Subaru Register

I have emailed all my contacts

thanks Gaz and Kate and Rusty in this the biggest crises CS has ever had since a certain Lordy started having <visions>

Now now Lordy things could never get that bad as long as you keep having your <visions> as you call them:eek2: :notworthy :norty:

When Nominet delete your ownership without authority or any prior warning.

Plenty of companies "sniff" for released domains to register and sell back. However, as Nominet have admitted FULL liability, I will be taking legal action if they don't sort it out.

the .com version is available

all the club merchandise, shirts, etc has .co.uk on it :mad:

Of course :(

Hopefully they will sort for you

Rusty I will be having a crack with Claire/gaz tomorrow if nominet have accepted liability we might be able to get some sort off refund on shirts we have already purchased.

OMG

All the stationary ,stickers ,the beloved tent, and all our bits and pieces !!

even our numberplates !!!

I wont be able to sleep tonight

I even had us on the plan for the NBO6
and as you know
<visions> can't be changed !!

Why didn't they remind you it was up for renewal ???

It wasnt up for renewal for another 12 months
