Sinbucks Sites Redirecting (Closing Down)

Do they run sinhost as an affiliate free host does anyone know? I had an affiliate today that thought a domain was with our freehost, but the nameservers were sinhost. Could help solve a mystery, Scoob. Jinkies!

Hi Tom,
Sinhost is a hosting company aka mojohost. All my nameservers are still sinhost. I wish it was free

Hello Everyone,

Just returned from Vegas and picked this up on Boardwatcher so I wanted to stop by for a point of clarification. I apologize, firstoff, because this is one of the webmaster boards where I emailed a long time ago to change my username from 'SinEmpire' to 'Brad Mitchell' and the request just never got fulfilled.

Long story short - I sold SinBucks a long time ago to a new owner and FatBaby and I both trained and supported him as long as was needed. His decision to persue other interests a few months ago led to me purchasing the assets back. I did confirm to the best of my abilities that final webmaster payouts were done. What I have now are simply the domain name assets. All portions of the actual sites and program have been shutdown and any remaining recurring members were cancelled some time ago.

To make sure there was no confusion about my interests in these assets, they are simply listed on Afternic - not at all redirected to any other traffic program. I took an interest in repurchasing the assets primarily out of my own stubborness. The idea that if the person I chose to sell it to wasn't going to run it anymore than I would simply assist in a graceful shutdown and reclaim the domain names for possible but unprobable future development. I really did not want the program to proceed on to a third owner, potentially one that I did not know, because of any association or confusion that might result from it being a 'Sin' property which was obviously my previous brand name.

I am regretful that the program did not continue under the new ownership but did have enough involvement post-purchase to see that the affiliates who were sending traffic were being taken care of properly. At the end of the day, it was a very low traffic program that never came into it's own.

Best of luck to everyone-

Brad
