Someone's trying to collect a ransom.

And someone else thinks some person that hates us is willing to pay, too.

Considering the self-deprecating nature of Oppositelock, we should absolutely buy the .sucks domain and piss them off thoroughly by continuing the community with even more of a spring in our step.

I assume one of the mods was smart enough to, as some point in the distant past, secure the rights to .com or .org, but .co is still available...

I’m in for that group buy.

I got 5 on it. We could be the Primus fans of the internet car world.

Thanks for getting that song stuck my head for the rest of the afternoon.

We could have oppositelock.ca for around $10 bucks from the domain search sites I used. We’re missing the “r” but it’s still pretty close. Oddly, oppositelock.quebec is priced at around $35.

By chance, I found oppositelock.rocks for $13, in contrast to the self-deprecating .sucks domain.

Well, liveandletdiecast.com is already owned by somebody on LaLD since it redirects to liveandletdiecast.kinja.com

So in the worst case it could probably just move.

Note that I mentioned Primus immediately thereafter though, as an attempt to cleanse. Repeat after me: Wynona’s got herself a big brown beaver... Wynona’s got herself a big brown beaver...

Yeah, and if Kinja goes away, odds are that, if the communities survive, they won’t survive in one place where it’s easy to go back and forth and share content. For all the hate Kinja has gotten in the past and still gets, it’s the best of the bunch when it comes to making it easy for people to comment and publish their own stuff.

I replied before you edited, but good redirection. We could register oppositelock.prim.us and the stories could all be about guys named Jerry...etc

Sadly, oppositelo.ck is not a possibility, though we could get James May on our side with opposite.co.ck

oppositelock.ca works if you’re from Boston.

Haha - I looked up oppositelo.ck too. Would’ve been nice!

This gave me a good chuckle - I'm not even sure why I know that accent so well since I've never been anywhere near Boston.

I was so just thinking the same thing.

The accent isn’t as strong as movies/tv make it out to be. They just play it up for comedic effect.

Could have it automatically redirect to oppositelock.ca/r, and have that be the landing page.

We’ve gotta be able to crowdfund that.

Someone took puffalump.com like that. I ended up with puffalump.de instead.

That fits (assuming your allegiance to der Vaterland doesn’t waver in the coming years)!
