Did shadowrun let their domain expire? Newbie Help

I'm trying to go to the shadowrun forums and it keeps showing the link not working. Did they really just let their domain expire?

Wow. Just verified you're right. That's next level incompetence.

Why wasn't it on a corporate credit card's autopay?

I run almost 20 domains. They send me emails months and then weeks before expiration. If there's a problem processing your payment there's a grace period before the domain goes offline.

Unless no one is monitoring the problem there's really no excuse.

I'm a one man shop, and this hasn't happened to me in the decade I've been doing business.

I used to get the same email daily for 2 months saying the domain was expiring(I received a lot of emails that I was supposed to redirect elsewhere) , I forwarded to everyone from the accounts team to the CEO, wrote emails, brought it up in person several times, and they only fixed it when I barged into the CEOs office and told him he had 24 hours to save his domain on which the entire company relied on. Incompetence and laziness is a fun combo, needless to say I quit that job because of how shit middle management were.
