    It wasn't even a domain seize. They got the damn servers.

    Things are getting heated on the interwebs now.

    Well, like I said in the shoutbox, they're even going after the site designer. He's still "at large", so, apparently you can become a fugitive by designing a website.

    wow i thought it was only a shutdown not their actual servera. Since its a China based company they could easilly just bring it back up hosted offshore but if their servers got seized i doubt they have everything backed up... though i still expect them to come back. Im surprized they havent done anything yet as it seems that are still the owners of the domain.
