Erm, why's everyone refreshing it and thinking it'll make a difference? It's unique visitors that counts, refreshing does nothing.
i dont think itll make a difference, im just watching the hit counters below to see their views pile up

Re: dot tk dummy domain
Oh, okay. :p
And by the way, unless that view counter resets every day, you won't be able to tell when you've reached it or not. According to those sketchy blogs it's when you get a certain amount of unique visitors in one day, not overall.

B. Yeah, I hope that XenoK thought of that. If not, I can program one myself that does reset every day.
C. Yes, it can. NameCheap is the way to go for domains. They may not be free, but they're much higher quality.

A. In other words dot.tk isn't a scam...
C. If you're getting something free, dot.tk is the way to go. It's the best free, domain, and is also the shortest. You can't really get any other free domain names, as short as dot.tk, and get it to be better then it.

co.cc is just 3 characters longer. It's free too. And just as easy to remember as .tk.

Re: dot tk dummy domain
Hi Guys!
Great idea!
I work at Dot TK and can tell you that we are not a scam.
But do you know how much services get abused when you start
to give them away for free? Its crazy to see what people to do
to get bulk registrations done.
We monitor domains; We have to, its a deal we made with Tokelau.
Domains should not break our content regulations (ie no pr0n, warez
or scam) and they should work. We monitor domains manually,
and we monitor them using automated systems.
Sometimes things go wrong; The automated system isnt perfect;
People arent perfect. Your domain could be cancelled because
its falsely seen as a bad one. One email to support[at]dot[dot]tk
is all it takes to know what happened and to get your domain back.
I am following this project with a lot of interest.
Good luck!

Re: dot tk dummy domain
Lolololol. Well, I never expected that to happen.
So if your domain is cancelled, all you do is email you and you get it back?

Re: dot tk dummy domain
How can he prove it? There's not much more he can really say.
Though, in that case, prove that it is a scam.

I think this is a test to see if it is a scam.
Yeah, I'm just saying that he can't prove it is a scam anymore than that guy can prove it's not a scam, since even if it is a scam, they now won't take down that site because they know about it.

Re: dot tk dummy domain
How do you expect him to be able to prove that? Like I said, he's said pretty much all he can, he can't prove anything even further.

Re: dot tk dummy domain
I don't think dot.tk is a scam. You don't own the domain. They have complete control over it unless you buy the domain.
