Yeah, I signed up a while ago (to promote myself of course), but was scared away quickly. Their forums were just so far off-topic, and often offensive.

Just to clear some of your minds and remove rage and worry:
As of March 21, 2006, the Home of the Underdogs website is off-line due to the expiration of the domain name registration. Sarinee Achavanuntakul, during a rare public appearance on the site's IRC channel, related that this was due to credit card difficulties and that the domain would be working again soon. In the meantime, the site is still accessible via its IP address (http://209.120.136.195/), but downloads and screenshots will be unavailable as the servers won't accept IP addresses as referers for those files (this could be fixed, though, by adding the servers' hostnames into your system's hosts file; see here for detailed instructions).
As of March 27, the Home of the Underdogs website is located here, due to problems in regaining the domain from register.com. Sarinee mentioned in the website's IRC channel that register.com couldn't contact her and she lost her password, creating the current situation. Negotiations over the .org domain are underway, but as of now the site can be accessed through the IP address or the temporary site.

http://209.120.136.195/ - Is the site for now
It was an easy google search

Thanks for clearing those few tings up Wally, though DB already gave us the IP link it's nice to know what's going on. Oh and franpa, consider yourself told.

Not that I didn't already give you the IP link like 3 days ago, Wally, but thanks anyway for quoting wikipedia...
