photovox Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Well, my current host has left Moveable Type users in the dark and stopped support for Moveable Type related problems, and are also not allowing any new MT installs. I guess I've been flying under the radar since I implement all the security I can and my site has never had a problem. I don't want to stay with them because I'm afraid that they'll pull the plug on my site sooner or later, regardless of the security of my site, as that has happened to other people. So questions! 1) Does TCH allow moveable type installs? I'm currently running MT v2.661 with MT-Blacklist, FilterCategories, and SubCategories plugins, along with renamed comment and trackback scripts to discourage spam. 2) When my domain name eventually needs to be renewed, if I transfer it over to TCH who owns it? I know that with godaddy.com THEY technically own it, and can do anything they want with it. I think I've searched for the answers to everything else. Everything looks good so far... Rod Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 1) Yes. There is a lot of MT people here. 2) YOU and no one else owns it. Quote
MikeJ Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Couple of things... 1) MT is allowed here. We have no intentions of banning it either. Several users here use MT currently. 2) You own the domain. And as far as godaddy.com, unless they are listed as the registered owner, they do not own the domain, you do. Godaddy legally cannot do anything with the domain they want. Quote
photovox Posted June 21, 2004 Author Posted June 21, 2004 Whoa, quick replies, I guess that tells me how the service will be WHEN I sign up. Thanks for the help, I'll definiately be a future customer. Rod Quote
TCH-Don Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Yea! Rod, be sure to stop by the introductions forum so we can give you the official warm welcome Quote
TCH-Rob Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 Rod, Welcome, I used to work with Go Daddy and they do not own your domain. If you are the registrant then you own it. Hope to see you soon. Quote
