Hey guys,

I was just curious if someone could point me in the right direction of the current DNF admin(s). Thanks!

We have Adam a.k.a. DotComGod who is the owner of the forum.
We also have Chuck (a.k.a. admin) who is also one of the site admins.

**Raider** · 07-13-2009, 08:35 PM

Interesting to see the original owner post here... Welcome back.

Never knew this forum was started by a teen and sold in the manner it did. I see $800 more mentioned at one point so it was also dirty cheap. Greg did well and Adam built upon that, everyone has profited and become informed thanks to the forum. Nice to see the creator post again, ironic you never did anything really with investing. I suppose you were just a kid so... too bad really, youd think the brain child of a domain forum would have a portfolio worth 10's of millions lol. So I assume you are just 23 or so today ?

**Carter** · 07-14-2009, 09:31 AM

Welcome back Dan!

Not sure if Dan was actually confused AFTER checking that, but he should talk to Adam (DotComGod).

I did try to buy it as well at that time. Still affordable but when Greg managed it, it's another ball game.

A lot of original members already left, one of them is namepopper just dissappeared without notice.

**copper** · 07-14-2009, 02:17 PM

How interesting.
Imagine "Trader" could of been the owner

LOL! Quite a few back then had praised and vouched for NamePopper, who later turned out to be more a persona than a real person.

I for one don't see any problem with that. Gregr once ruled this place, you know.

Thanks copper

It all came down to trusting a high school boy as far as being of legal age goes. a few dollars, and a few minutes time, or I would have owned it.

Yep, just a slightly immature kid who probably should never have sold the site when I did. I am almost 23, just finishing up university now. I am currently making a pretty decent living from my online business.. I guess it's only fitting that I am after countless years of being online trying to start sites/make money. I wish I had a bit more to show of course though.

This was the only reson

I did not grab it when I could have easily owned it for roughly 5k or less, well before GregR jumped on the sale band wagon.

I was warned by folks (including legal expert) since Dan was a minor the sale could be voided by Dan at any future time (even years later) on the grounds he was a minor at the time and therefore not legally competant.

Does this mean I can draft up a legal team and re-take the site? jk.

The forum was one of the few places to get my domain discussion "fix" after they changed the old Afternic. It was a growing forum and Gregr saw the potential and took things to a new level. Paid subscriptions for one thing. I think Gregr underestimated the value here and sold to Adam. He sold for a nice profit, but I'll bet that he wishes he hadn't. Adam has continued to advance the whole concept. Good for all of us.
I'm sure that you will be remembered as the original owner, but I don't know if things would be at this level if you had kept the site. I didn't see the full potential myself. Best of luck in your ventures.

**copper** · 07-16-2009, 01:53 PM

Dan, you created this forum when you were just kid.
With all additional knowledges/experiences you gained since then,
I am sure you can do many great things and much better this time
