    I just got an email from GoDaddy and apparently I still own the domain name "wordforge.net." Didn't we transfer that when you guys took over? John, Anc, I'm looking at you . . .

    Don't ask me on that one. I had nothing to do with domain transfers. I was only brought on after the initial board transfer was complete.

    I mean, I thought we had to have domain access in order to move hosting and install the new software, but I am not a tech person.

    Nah, domain is totally separate from hosting unless you order a combined package from a host company. You can have a GoDaddy domain and choice of a thousand server hosts, and one won't affect the other.

    Yeah, but don't you have to actually have control of the domain to point it to your stuff?

    You need the login information for the domain account (GoDaddy, for example), and point it to the server, and that's it.

    Okay, just found my godaddy credentials. According to it I own wordforge.net and testingforge.net.

    Not sure what you're seeing Lanz.

    Perhaps the contact email is still the same?

    Maybe so. ANC, you wanna check to make sure your email is listed as contact instead of mine?

    Has this been resolved? If so it can be released, @Anna .
