Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Nah nothing to do with me.

A whois lookup came up with an Anax Enterprises as the domain owner. Time will tell what the site will be used for. I hope they dont try to use thebackshed as a front for something bodgey. Either way, its not very original of them, they would have been made aware of thebackshed.com when they registered thebackshed.com.au.

I did try to register thebackshed.com.au a few years ago but the Australian register rules mean I have to have a business name containing the words "thebackshed" and a ABN number. As thebackshed.com is a non commercial hobby site I didnt take it any further, besides I'm not focused on any one country. There are dozens of domain options, like .biz and .net, too many to register them all to protect the name. I know one similar spelt site tries to dump a trojan virus on your computer, and another one is all gay porn

Not to worry.

Glenn

Perhaps .org would be the way to go it seems non-profit to me.

Really? *attempts to find these sites now, wondering just what misspelling they're under*
