This sites registration is renewed every year on March 7th ?

 

OR

 

Rob paid for 21 years upfront back in the year 2000. What will happen six months from now ? Who knows.

 

Anyways, hi!

How much is the registration do you think?

[dadfad]

I'm not sure of the cost of hosting this site, but I pay $15.13 a year to maintain the registration of dadfad.com. I haven't had an actual website for probably ten years or more.

I have my own little free microsite.

 

Que sera sera for old GTU...

Who let the crazy dutch bastard off his leash?

 

Hey Igor. Hope you're keeping well.

Looks like Rob did the necessary things to keep GTU online.

If some of us still show up it's because we still care! I know I do.

And there are all those who read only...

Hello, Bernard. Yes, it's good to see a few of us still return to the old neighborhood once in a while! I'm glad Rob kept the site going. It would be a shame to lose all the great information collected here. As well as the conversations and interactions between members over the years.

 

You said you had a small web-site. What's its address?

Hey if any of you are in regular contact with Rob, a couple accounts are messed up and I'm trying to contact him for assistance

I totally agree John.
It's not like Rob told me personally though.
I think he did it because the other day I couldn't access GTU with chrome and the message was like: "you tried to access www.guitarzone.com and failed because the owner of the site just signed up with Cloudfare and it usually takes a few moments before the site is put back online" or something like that.
 
My microsite is where I put a few album reviews and stuff just toying with it:  https://rock506070.forumotion.com/

Last time we talked was maybe 10 or 12 years ago...

Hope it keeps up. It's always good to pop in and say hi.

[sixgunsound]

lol we're trying !

[sixgunsound]

still online there cuphands

[dadfad]

I just sent Rob twenty bucks. Hopefully if some of us make a few donations once in a while, he can keep the site going for a while.

[sixgunsound]

rob took a lot of donations in bitcoin back in the day maybe he's flush

[dadfad]

Near the end of 2010 I went online to buy a hundred bucks worth of bitcoin. It was worth less than a dollar. I found an exchange, entered all the necessary information to make the purchase, etc. Then I was supposed to wait for a confirmation of my email address, etc. I waited for about fifteen minutes and it hadn't come yet. I was in my office and it was the end of the day on a Friday and I wanted to leave for the weekend and figured I'd finish up whatever I had to do the next Monday. On Monday when I came in I wasn't even thinking about it and deleted all the crap that had come in over the weekend in my junk email folder which I guess included the email I was supposed to respond to to confirm my information to make the purchase. I never bothered to go back again to make a purchase. Had I remembered or bothered to try to make a purchase again, today I'd probably be driving a Lambo instead of a Ford truck!   Story of my life!
