Good morning DNForum,

I'm Helmuts Meskonis, and the 1st one to open this AMA (Ask Me Anything) category! I've been on quite the journey in the world of domains and online ventures, and I'm happy to share my experiences and insights with all of you. Wright or Wrong - the time will show :)

A little about me:
  • Founder of HostMaria: started as 20i reseller, signed-up over 10k new users over 2 years, and now offering dedicated servers for custom needs, and planning to become an accredited channel partner of Nominet, Afnic, Denic, DNS Belgium, nic.lv and others.
  • Founder of the London Domain Summit: a B2B convention that brings domain business owners/executives, investors, and experts together to discuss business, the latest trends and opportunities in the domain industry.
  • Launched layer 1 cryptocurrency $Maria Coin (PivX fork): Took me 4 years to get ready to launch it.
  • Recently, I became the proud owner of DNForum and Acorn Domains: Two significant forums in the domain industry that have stood the test of time.
Feel free to ask me anything :) I'm here to answer your questions.

Ask away, and let's jump-start this AMA category.

Hi Helmuts,

Just got back on here hopefully for great domain discour6se and business. Am from the dnf.com days. Will there be any climate-related categories
Jeff

Hi Jeff,

Welcome back to DNForum.com! It's great to see an experienced pro from the early DNF days.

We're always happy to hear forum member suggestions, especially veterans like yourself. I think, currently, we don't have any specific climate-related categories, but we're open to creating one if there's enough interest.

Would a subcategory for "Climate Talks" within the Off-Topic section be something you'd be interested in? Or was the question about something else?

Best! Helmuts

Loaded question..Many different categories on fixing Earth or healing Earth. This stuff overtook me as the most important thing I could do now and it is doing the same to many. Abate fossils, cdr, sai, mcb, regeneration, circ economy, etc. I loosely said climate because it is a large umbrella term. Better is climate crisis or something that hones in on Earth burning.
No Earth is no domains :)

DNF was dying but glad to see that it is in good hands now.

Good afternoon Jeff,

Here it comes - a category for discussing all things related to climate domains: https://www.dnforum.com/forums/climate-domain-names.932/

What would you choose if you had to choose one meal to eat for the rest of your life?

Probably mixed grill with egs and sides like grilled vegetables, black olives and rice :) should give enough variety for life :)
 

The Rule #1

Do not insult any other member. Be polite and do business. Thank you!
