@stolinski @wesbos I’ve heard one or the other of you mention that you use @Namecheap for registration. Do you use their mail, another service, hire a sysadmin and run it in house?

I've never used @Dynadot. Are they good? I want to register a .fm domain. It's $70 at Dynadot vs $100 at Namecheap! Huge difference!

@Namecheap Hi there, your servers are hosting a Phishing scam that's getting quite widely circulated by email. Who can I report this to in order to get it looked at and taken down promptly?

@Namecheap @peterbarfield Your system seems to be very slow to suspend illegal websites with domains registered through you. Any thoughts how this can improved with a more efficient faster robust system to fight against cybercrime

The @Namecheap API randomly returns 405 errors. I wonder if one of the backend servers is configured incorrectly.

@cuhpajo @elibeachy Yeah also what I noticed is that on namecheap I had issues with connecting to postmark but on godaddy its easy and everything propagates instant. While godaddy has higher renewal pricing for some unique domains while name cheap is cheaper. Often pros and cons here n there.

@TheShaunSkelton @NamecheapCEO It’s a terrible situation and it doesn’t seem like @namecheapceo is interested in doing anything about it. There needs to be an investigation by a governing body into namecheap #investigatenamecheap

(@homegirllondon) reported
@Namecheap when I asked if you can help me take down a website with a very similar domain name to mine bought from you, you said NO. I have read your terms and it is clear you can help as it is an abuse of your terms, so why are you not helping me? #investigatenamecheap
