    In progress Forumotion is being used as a search engine

    Post by youallsuck November 4th 2015, 4:05 am

    Technical Details


    Forum version : #Unspecified
    Position : Administrator
    Concerned browser(s) : Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer
    Who the problem concerns : Yourself
    When the problem appeared : beginning of October, when i got my website up (Not a forumotion website)
    Forum link : groundzerorsps.com

    Description of problem

    Forumotion is being used as a search engine everytime I try going to 'groundzerorsps.com/' this isn't happening with anyone else or with any of my other devices connected to the same internet. Here's exactly what's happening:
    (URL BAR)"www.groundzerorsps.com"
    goes straight to: "https://www.forumotion.com/search/www.groundzerorsps.com"
    then gives this message:

    THE FORUM WWW.GROUNDZERORSPS.COM DOESN'T EXIST

    Verify the internet address you typed : www.groundzerorsps.com,
    and try again if there is a mistake.
    It is possible that the administrator has chosen to delete it.


    Once again, I did not create this website from forumotion, nor have I ever created a website with forumotion. Thank you. [edit: I found someone who is having the same issue as I am.]

    It actually says that one of your nameserver points to this forum: http://groundzero.forumotion.bz/ and other 2 point to Hostgator.
    Log into your account on your domain registrar and delete "http://groundzero.forumotion.bz/" from your nameserver.

    After that, clear your browser cache and cookies (it will log-off you from all sites).
    I'm 99% sure that's the reason why you have this problem.

    Note: After you remove that from nameserver, it may pass up to 72hrs for change to apply.
