Thank goodness I was wondering what was happening to the site's information. But why is it .tk instead of .org? Yesterday I did a whois of doomportables.org and its a registered name, so just why is it not being used?

It's .tk because dot.tk gives away .tk domain names. They're some crazy small island in the middle of the ocean, apparently. doomportables.tk is hosted on 100webspace, and the .tk name redirects to it.

www.dot.tk <- See for yourself! 8)


And the stupid domain registry abbibi goes through STILL hasn't renewed doomportables.org, so we're stuck with a useless directory site. :x

Because they are using a free provider, and wanted something easier to remember than abbibi.cogia.net. Abbibi should complain to the domain company, because this is what, 3 months now?

Yea, I thought it went down back in February or March, but it was only a bit over a month.
