Re: BNR Metal Pages goes to a squatter.
Looks like the domain name expired today and he didn't renew it on time. I'm sure it'll be back in a couple of days. |

And he's an IT guy. Sucks that domain names are bought up so fast when they expire. My goodpigbadpig.com was bought up within a day.  _________________ "Happy people have no stories." —Therapy?

| | He's spent too much time on that site for it not to come back under another name, but it sad to have that domain name taken like that. |

| That sucks! That was a site I used regularly....
I wonder if he can change the name slightly and get another domain up. _________________ It's almost like religion is what happens when the Spirit has left the building. - Bono

| I used that site a lot too, but I also use a similar site by some British dude. Find it here:

He needs a better site name though! |

Cool site. But he doesn't even begin to touch the vastness of BNR _________________

You're right. not as many bands - still a hell of a lot though - but I use it as there are a fair few European bands on there that aren't on BNR, particularly Scandinavian black and power metal bands, as well as some British thrash bands that BNR doesn't seem to go near. Also, I've discovered several British death bands there as well. Detrimentum come to mind, who are just awesome. I guess it's understandable considering where they both live.... |

| | I think it is really hard to "compete" with Metal Archives and that's probably one of the reasons why BNR is no more... |
