What happened to fishnet.dyndns.org?

Ka0s

Yeah, so I noticed it was gone, so I emailed dyndns asking why my account was blocked...


Your site at
http://fishnet.dyndns.org:81/winworld/s ... an/os.html was
illegally distributing copyrighted materials. This is in serious
violation of our AUP and international law.

So yeah, NO-IP ownz dyndns, because they dont claim that links to oses, and ancient OSes are illegal. So it is now http://fishnet.no-ip.org:81/winworld

Im assuming it was Ridgeback or Illegal Concepts, because theyre real mature and would do that, especially since I owned the domain www.tux-os.tk and made it point to winworld.

Yea noip is better, tho they have popups but most (smart) people use mozilla firefox or opera or adleast ie with a popup blocker so they dont see that.

Ka0s

Uhh its only got a popup if you use the damn web redirect thing that you guys keep using, I set mine to a web host and dont get one.

DevilsJim89

good job...the shorter the better.

SurfinShell23

Hmmm... I was used to the dyndns, though. Oh well.

Ka0s

OK everyone, get set to get used to it again, Ive been talking to the guy there, and hes ublocked the acount, and Ive re-made the DNS. So far, it only goes to 127.0.0.1, but when I find out how I can use it for OSes (like link to a different server) I'll be able to set it up. I just need one more response from Tim Wilde.

DevilsJim89

Why we goin back to DYNDNS if NO-IP ownz?

Mr. Clean

because we were all used to dyndns and it makes Ridgeback's attempts look stupid and pointless

DevilsJim89

so what? Just use the domain for the site....typing the long url is a pain...

Q

Because Fishs router has DynDNS built in, no has to have some user client to update.

What's Ridgeback trying to do now?

Q

He got ticked @ Fish and WinWorld, so he reported our "illegal software" to DynDNS to get us suspended. Lot of good it did.

-Q

DevilsJim89

Who/what is this Ridgeback thing?

SurfinShell23

How'd we find out that he did this... man I feel out of the loop.

BlueSun

your not the only one ssh.

SurfinShell23

I think this Ridgeback stuff happened a few months before I joined.

EDIT: Might want to read this to catchup. http://fishnet.no-ip.org:81/winworld/fo ... =ridgeback

Ka0s

Heres what I think happened. Someone I know told me that WinWorld was posted on the site www.w\a\r\e\z\l\i\n\k.net's forum. This got my DNS shown, and DynDNS took it down because of a report of it. Who posted it? Who knows, maybe Ridgeback? Anyway, this is what I THINK happened, I'll find out soon when Tim Wilde replies to my email. He has been very helpful in getting the DNS and account unlocked, but I am waiting to see if I can link to the downloads and not have them hosted on the DynDNS address.

DevilsJim89

Those people are assholes who report us because of abandonware....losers.

SurfinShell23

Hmph. Seems to be an agreeable guy (Wilde, not Ridgeback).

DevilsJim89

Yeah he does, most managers wont even negtioate it.

Q

Fish is lucky that way, all the Verizon ppls he talks with are like, "Well, we don't really care if you run a serverer".

-Q

DevilsJim89

yeah Verizon owns. lol...comcast...blows!

Q

CC may suck, but Cox is FAR worse.

-Q

Ka0s

Cox has a 30GB down / 7.5GB up monthly limit, comcasts is 100GB total.

SurfinShell23

Hahahah... COX! The name says it all!

Q

Yea MrC made note of that too...

-Q

SurfinShell23

That has always made me wonder (Cox)...
