Title: Argonathrpg.net - New Redirection
Post by: DjxWindows on March 01, 2012, 06:25:42 pm
I wanted to donate to the website. However, I do not have enough money to do so. Therefore, I have decided to donate in a new way. I have registered the domain name "Argonathrpg.net" which will redirect to "Argonathrpg.eu".

This will be easier for people who don't know that the TLD for the website is ".eu".

I have just registered it and will take upto 24 hours for the redirection to take effect.

--

What does this mean?
- This basically means you can now visit the argonath website by going to "argonathrpg.net".

This was the best donation I could give for now. I don't know the best place to post this, and as I only play SA:MP, I have decided to post it here in the "SA:MP General" section of the forum.

Enjoy the new domain!  :hurray:

True. I am able to play for free without anyone expecting anything from me. Why not give something in return as thanks? :D

It's just a redirect. Domain redirection. It is not adf.ly or any other links. Just redirects the domain name here without any ads or anything. I get pleasure of helping. That is all.

The domain is still in registration process. Once it is completely done, I will change the redirection to this site. So even if you do try it now, it will only show you a page by the registar of the domain.

He redirected it via a file, rather than a DNS redirect.

That is correct. My registar doesn't allow the option for DNS redirect. You have to contact them in order to do it. I though doing a file re-direct would be so much easier.

lol who is Nita Sanchez?

Who knows? Lol

File redirects give you more control anyway, and are cheaper to own the domain and do a file redirect than a DNS one as most registrars charge more for the latter.

Nice! :)

You could put <script type="text/javascript">document.location='http://www.argonathrpg.eu/'; (http://www.argonathrpg.eu/';)</script> just after the <body> tag to make the redirection faster tho :)

Does nobody else see the potential security flaw in this? One day when he gets banned for using some kind of hacks, he'll get angry at the community, change the URL to redirect to shock porn or something, and then not only will people think the URL is associated with Argonath, but regular members might be using that URL for some reason and get a bit of a surprise...I highly doubt Gandalf would be too happy with this.

Lol. I am ready to transfer him the information. If you don't like it nothing I can do about it.

As long as it's not seen as an official URL, anyone can redirect a URL to Argo. There's really nothing we can do about it, and as long as they aren't trying to be mean with it or abuse it in some way, then all we can do is let them share their gift with us.

Not all users who are banned are malicious. Many don't deserve more chances, yes, but there are exceptions since it's a case-by-case basis. Only time will tell on which one he is, but so far he seems to care enough about the community to spend his own money on it.

Thanks for the support. Regarding the future, if you can not pay renewal or get tired, just contact me for a transfer and we can arrange it.

$10 a year is something I can do for this community. Won't be a problem :)

Nice, just you could add some design or something instead of "Nita Sanchez" before you get redicreted. Just some single-colored page  :D

That might just be a pre-built page he used for the redirect.
