[QCLUG] Revealed.net domain sold *again* ?

[Mark Riedesel]

This obviously isn't directly Linux related, but I know a few of us on
the list had been faithful revealed.net customers in the past years.
We're all aware of SoloConnect's acquisition and resultant sub-par
customer service, they were at least courteous enough to provide free
email forwards for our old revealed.net e-mail addresses.

Well, it seems as though SoloConnect has sold the revealed.net domain
name to Network Business Systems ( nbson.com ) located in Geneseo, IL
who are now offering @revealed.net addresses for $60/year which seems
rather exorbitant considering all the excellent free email providers
available nowadays. The real kicker is that they've also chosen to
charge the same fee for e-mail forwarding which is unfortunate for
those of us who have had revealed.net addresses since the early
1990's.

So my question for the old revealed.net address holders, what are you
guys planning to do? The other question being for anyone else that's
had a situation where an ISP sells off a domain name to a
exponentially less courteous company? Obviously if you own a domain,
you get to choose what you do with it, it's just unfortunate in
situations such as this one.
