vichan.net #676

Who owns the vichan.net domain? It doesn't appear to be a normal cybersquatter, but it would be nice to have and to put vichan there as a software page.

its owned by czaks. i think its the 1st domain for vichan

RealAngeleno commented 8 months ago

I'll see if he's still around. His other site linked on his profile @czaks was taken by a cybersquatter.

3ss0w commented 8 months ago

He's inactive everywhere

Mek101 commented 8 months ago

I suppose this is related to #668?

Mek101 commented 8 months ago

Maybe the feature can be substituted by just making an API call to github?

There's vichan.info, so the api call could easily go there. It's more of having an actual domain for vichan.

There was a rumour he got arrested for bomb threats and he's been inactive on the internet for ages. Btw there's a new version of vichan imageboard on vichan.pl but it's not made by people who made original vichan (and a few later instances). pl.vichan.net was also revived a few years ago but went down again.

Yes, he was arrested for bomb threats but got let out. The new vichan version is made by some underage newfag that doesnt even know PHP (he admitted it in a post he removed). Czaks completely quit so theres no way you can contact him

As far as I know it's owned by @h00j, but he may have let it expire as he is not an “underage new[friend] that doesnt even know PHP”, so he may not be the current owner.
