Lost one the same way.

From that point forward all domains are paid for 2 yrs in advance. Every month I check to see which ones are down to 1 yr and just pay for the second year.

I challenge anyone to find a registrar that doesn't change the name servers on an expired domain. I don't see how that is in any way shady. The domain is expired, meaning no longer leased to you. What are you expecting to have happen?

Well you know boys, a nuclear reactor is a lot like women. You just have to read the manual and press the right button

I feel your pain. I'm my own registar, and I recently let 10 or so domains go, so it was a shock last night when I got a call from "Pixel Pie Domains" about my expired domains. I thought someone was scamming me, using MY name to call me about it.

After getting it straighted out, I found that was a service that they did for all anyone who registers though my service if domains expire, in addition to nagging you with emails, and offering auto renew. So sorry your registar was such a pain in the ass.

My point is that this particular registrar didn't send warning emails and they made it tricky to renew the domain. That feels pretty shady to me.
