Title: LNL publishing forget to reup their domain?
Post by: -budd- on September 26, 2015, 06:42:20 AM
I get a Godaddy page saying it expired on the 21st, pending renewal or deletion.

What is the main site url your using?  Maybe it is an internet provider specific issue since I have no issue getting there.

nope same thing with your links. Are you accessing a cached link? When i try" is it down" it says the website is parked, either  expired or listed for sale.

Nope, not cached...I even hit CTRL+F5 (which totally resets cache for the page) and still works fine...also working fine from my tablet and phone.

Even the panthergames forums pop up with the godaddy page. I can get to panther's main page but not the forums, says the same thing as lnl site does.

Very weird....I guess it is possible they have multiple web server locations (data centers) and maybe your hitting one, while I am hitting another....but definitely working fine for me today.

If they just renewed the domain, it will take awhile for every one to see the site back. Changes to DNS can take as long as 24 hours to fully propagate across the web and it can vary widely between ISPs. There's also DNS caching on your local machine that is separate from browser caching. You can try clearing the DNS cache

Some of the site does and other parts go to GoDaddy. After dns flush.

DNS propagation can be convoluted. You might keep seeing odd behavior for a day or two.

I suspect when LnL was sold, someone forgot to update the contact or payment info at GoDaddy. They bombard you with emails well before your domain is set to expire (and you can set the domain to auto-renew and not worry about it). Still it's easy enough to let the renewal slip. It happened to the primary domain for the Dallas Cowboys a few years back.

I manage a couple hundred domain names for my work. Even with auto-renewals and constant checking, I've had a few domains expire unintentionally.
