AncientJoe Posted May 25, 2022 · Member Share Posted May 25, 2022 (edited) I'm happy to see the reforming of a community here! Are there any plans to purchase a domain name? The current numeric placeholder isn't ideal - ancientcoinchat.com is available (albeit appearing a bit non-inclusive to our less antiquated brethren) or perhaps a brainstorming session would be useful? Domains are notoriously difficult to find non-registered. I'd gladly contribute to a hosting/purchasing fund. A domain through GoDaddy or other major providers shouldn't be more than $20/year with all of the privacy bells and whistles in place.

Roman Collector Posted May 25, 2022 · Patron Share Posted May 25, 2022 Good to see you, @AncientJoe! Getting a domain name is very important, indeed. I, too, would happily contribute to such a fund. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benefactor Phil Davis Posted May 25, 2022 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted May 25, 2022 I would certainly contribute as well. There probably (hopefully!) will be a need sooner rather than later to upgrade to a paid Invision account, which will also need funding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Svessien Posted May 25, 2022 · Member Share Posted May 25, 2022 Really happy to be here, and to see some of my favorite posters on this thread being here already. I decided to quit supporting CT after the rude sticky thread was posted on top of page 1 there, as if we were children. So my chat board supporter money for 2022 aren’t spent, and I’m happy to contribute. There seems to be no «like» function here, which is just as well. Please just assume that I like all your posts. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Snible Posted May 25, 2022 · Member Share Posted May 25, 2022 Glad to see we are considering a name. The pricing here suggests the creator can change the name to ancientcoinchat.invisionservice.com for free. Otherwise we will get many questions "is it prounced kay-23-2-1-3-8-7 or kay three-hundred-twenty-one-thousand-three-hundred-and-eighty-seven?" 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend going through AWS route53. http://byzantinecoins.net i recently created my own website using that combined with lightsail/wordpress. If Mods here need help getting a domain name set up, I can help 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benefactor jdmKY Posted May 26, 2022 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted May 26, 2022 I’ll contribute ( I guess I’ll do this rather than bid on the EID MAR aureus now). 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restitutor Posted May 26, 2022 · Administrator Share Posted May 26, 2022 Hi everyone! Super happy to see all the positive responses here and the offers to help support the platform monetarily! Apologies for taking so long to reply, my day job (finance) has gotten pretty crazy the last few days (see: CNBC, for why, haha 😅). So right now, the reason for the domain being as it is comes from being on the 30 day initial free trial with invisionservice. After the free trial it'll go to $89/m, + the ~$10/year for the domain name. I am definitely open to any and all suggestions around the domain name! As I'm seeing how many posts are occurring in the non-ancient coin threads, it's evident to me already that the 'Ancient Coin Chat' name will need to pivot to something more inclusive! I can create an announcement post outlining a timeline for domain suggestions (say, in the next 48 hours from when the post goes live all suggestions need to be submitted within the thread). After that timeline elapses, I can then create a poll for everyone to vote for their favorite option (could keep it open longer given the 30 day free trial timeline). Thoughts? 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UkrainiiVityaz Posted May 30, 2022 · Member Share Posted May 30, 2022 I'd contribute the 29$ I did not this year send to the former site given the immodest moderation issues. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
