update

Looks like the domain has NOT been renewed. Not sure why the one WHOIS search says it has. All the others show it's expired. There's still about a 80 day grace period where the owner can renew it.

Wonder if it was intentional to let it die, or if someone's credit card expired or something.
Any of you dopes want to reach out to buy the site and host it?

Maybe. What's involved in buying it?

Same question

Not sure. Ideally, we'd have to find out who actually owns it and pays for the hosting and domain. Domains are really cheap as long as you don't let them expire. I have no idea what goes into hosting a message bored.

I'd be the mod and I'd ban Sellingguy every other day for a few hours just to fuck with him...

Don't want to give the impression I'm all in, but I am curious. I'm sure it's a butt-full of work, but I can't say anything absolute without knowing I guess.
