Welcome to frostii.net

Welcome, but don’t get comfortable yet. We’re still trying to recover frostii.com domain after the domain was hijacked. I’ve only set this up as a backup, just in case the recovery doesn’t work out. The site should be mostly operational. The tracker itself is probably working, but none of the torrents have been converted to use it. If we happen to recover the .com domain, we will move back to that, and I’m going to NOT transfer all new comments between now and recovery. Unless we make a new release on this .net domain, which is likely… Stay tuned.
Update 1: I just remembered that I didn’t copy the tracker, so it won’t be working. And none of the torrents would be available too, but none of them would be working, so that’s not much of a loss.
Update 2 (May 1): Now I was told that it may take another 5 days to recover the domain. Pain in the ass.
Update 3 (May 7): As you can see, the site has been restored! Yay us! And big thanks to Arabianswan for getting everything straight.

thats terrible….hoping for a speedy recovery for the site…
Ah~ So that’s what happened. Lucky for me, I use XDCC bots only. I was bored a few days ago and decided to check out your .com site and I couldn’t get on.
I found out it was .net now on the IRC channel.
For now, I guess tough luck for those who torrent the episodes.
=P
I would just like to note that frostii’s official policy in this matter is to blame snip. This doesn’t necessarily mean he had anything to do with the domain snafu, just that we are blaming him.
Thank you for your participation and continued patience regarding this matter.
I like the new .com site so much more. It has useful information and isn’t cluttered with boring “anime” stuff.
Hope things are back soon, can’t wait for my K-On fix of the week.
First chinese hackers maul google and now frostii! goddam ‘em all!
..and is EoTE movie underway or should I go grab the coalgirls DB hack?
<3
It’s still moving. Is probably going to be another couple of weeks yet though.
Awesome, willツdefinitelyツwait
Holy sh*t …I couldn’t get access to your site for almost 3 days. I was scared like hell. Good to know that you are still around.
I’m relieved, for a day I feared you guys melted away… ^_^;
ツ
Oh, new K-On!! episode? Schweet! I love your work.
How does a domain get hijacked?
By kimmo
Ah, that pedophile.
do a google search for domCollect domain hijack
Done. How douchy of the bastards.
Huh.. I glad Frostii still alive.. I miss u Frostii..
A reliable registrar is Moniker. I’ve used them for years and the prices are great and they’re based in Florida so you can call someone. Registerfly was garbage, and I don’t touch GoDaddy.
That’s pretty messed tho.
There is one thing good about this temporary domain. ツAbsolutely no spam so far.
I had one of my web domain taken couple years back. I forgot to put it on auto renew so it was registered by someone else when it expired (Stupid me I know). It’s been maybe 4 years and all they’ve done is park some search spam site on it… I wish they let it expire so I can get it back but nope.
Hope you have better luck than I.
I’ve been told that we will know within next 5 days.
Phew. Thought you guys all got arrested or something.
snip got arrested, but he was bailed out by Mael, and they’re on the run together now, like Bonnie & Clyde.
I really want see Summer Wars, hope that the torrent work soon. Greetz
WHAT!? so that’s what happened to your website…
terrible >.< I thought what had happened to your website… now it became clear. hope you get everything working again…
damn hijackers…. I’d shoot them to the moon if I could -_-
Gambareii!
Don’t worry guys! This backup site is moooore than good for the time being. Take your time to recover the main site as good as possible
You get 40 days from expiration to renew for the normal fee, then 30 days more to rescue the domain for about $50 to $100 more, and after that you’re pretty screwed.
This is a real domain hijacking – the domain wasn’t going to expire until November.
Fcking hackers.
I’ve always enjoyed you guys’ work and hope this works out sooner than later and less painful as it could be. Looking forward to anything the community can do to help.
SO GLAD TO SEE YOU ALL!!! I was soooo scared!!!! But sorry to learn about your troubles…
.com domain is back to me, now just waiting for them to send me an email to acknowledge the change back!
yay
Well this is taking quite some time….
They take up to 2 days to reply to an issue… you bet they are so slow but now this has been resolved… I’m going to speak to their complains dept!
I guess it wouldn’t be proper Frostii style if they were quick about it
Yay swany. Does this mean anime-4ever will be back up soon too?
datadyne I have not revived that as no one contacted me from a4e team >_>
What really? I’ll have to speak to shannon. Was the domain lost then?
Just got this email from them, Friday 6:31 AM PST
“The domain has been successfully added into your contract as specified.
Please allow 24 hours for the domain to become fully active and for the
DNS to propagate.”
So glad to hear that!
If I were you I’d demand some sort of compensation, or at the very least transfer to domain to a different registrar.
Frostii.com is back up and working you mite want to forward .net to .com now
Thanks and welcome back to frostii.com…
I waiting for next release Durarara!! and Omamori Himari…
Keep good work… I still love u all(not that way okay)…
Glad to see that everything’s back to normal. Thanks for keeping the community in the loop!
Welcome back guys!
