Dot5Hosting is out of my life, forever! This morning my domain, phishvt.com was finally transferred completely over to EhostPros.com. It took 24 days before the entire process was completed, and the holdup was all on the part of Dot5Hosting.
Apparentally when a domain is requested for a transfer, the registrar to whom you're switching to needs to initiate the move. An e-mail is sent to the current registrar and it's required that they reply to the e-mail to approve the transfer. According to EhostPros, who I contacted after two weeks when nothing had happened yet, Dot5Hosting never responded to their transfer request. They re-initiated the request and I waited again.
Nothing happened in the following days so I decided to go to Dot5Hosting's website and harass their live support technician. After half an hour of me trying to prove to him I was me, he finally accepted the transfer. Here it is a few days later, and my website is up!
The website itself here is the minor half of my worries. The site I have parked here is a site I am no longer maintaining, but it's a nice piece of work so I want to maintain a good web presense and possibly someone out in the web world would want to work on it and put it back in to production one day. Feel free to check it out if you wish, but keep in mind that after the move to a different server certain things don't work. These will be fixed in the near future.
My e-mail address was my major worry. For three weeks I had gone without my main e-mail address. Also, isn't it ironic that as soon as I post the previous entry about soxphan.com and my e-mail address there, do we cancel that account in order to look for a Movable Type friendly website. More on that project to come at a later date, as we're pretty much on hold for now.
Anyway, at this point if anyone needs to contact me, my perminent e-mail address is mickeyATthemickeyzone.com.
