    For those who care:

    Pokemon 706 was hacked using a vunaribility in cutenews, they uploaded a phishing scam to the site, and many people reported it to godaddy. They sent me an email, saying to remove it within 24 hours. I was unable to at that time, so pokemon706.com is suspended and they require a $200 reactivation fee, which is something I do not have for that kind of thing. I still have all the content on the server and if somehow pokemon706 is able to be registered once it expires, I will re-register it, as long as someone else doesn't beat me to it.


    I will never leave, just a part of me has moved on.
     
    Wow, that seriously sucks.

    Good luck on getting it back though.
     
    Best of luck to you with getting your domain back.
     
    I might just take a kick in the groin and pay the money, but I dunno yet. I wonder if it expires.
     
    Meh I am been trying to contact godaddy, but apparently their live phone support is only monday-friday during limited hours.
     
    Its not that hard to buy a new domain, and uploading the content, but then it takes time to build your search engine ranking and get all your pages indexed. I got about 95 percent of my hits from google.
     
    I knew Revo has been very upset by this since I am talking to him on AIM right now, but Pokemon706 I hope you get this fixed.

    Anyone who needs to hack a Pokemon site is an idiot

    Anyone who fell for a phishing scheme on a POKEMON site shouldn't be allowed online

    Anyone who would attack a website has no soul what-so-ever and should be treated as such, IMHO. I hope everything works out for you.

    Just an FYI, CutePHP's domain is currently suspended. Think they may have been hit as well?
     
    maybe... I might try to get it back, because ever sense pokemon706 has been gone down, I realized how many people actually care about it/me.
     
    o_O I know I like neeever post on PC but I've been seeing numerous websites going down and up...
    Good luck on getting the domain back :3
    Is there any temporary URL we can access? Like, if pokeden.com gets siezed then people can still access my site at a URL given to me by my host.
     
    Aaaaw, sorry to hear that... I hope everything turns out with it though! ><;

    Best of luck! x3
     
    What a pity. Looks like I'm passing off CutePHP with the bad reputation it's getting.

    Use something that is NOT php based, a news script such as mysql based could work.

    And I am working with Jeremy into making a temporary home for 706 while we work to get the domain back.
     
    According to paul, he just gained entry and some polish guy posted the scam...Beleive who you want x_X Evil people
