SonyOnline.net Domain Expires, Shenanigans Ensue for all SOE Games, Forums, Webs

SonyOnline.net Domain Expires, Shenanigans Ensue for all SOE Games, Forums, Websites

We are in the process of researching this issue, but it looks like the domain registration for the domain SonyOnline.net expired this morning, reverting back to being the property of NetworkSolutions. While SOE did not use the domain publicly, preferring SOE.com, the aforementioned domain contains all of the nameservers (ns2.sonyonline.net, ns4.sonyonline.net, ns6.sonyonline.net) which route users to SOE’s websites and forums, as well as connecting to its games.

For the last 20 minutes or so, we have been monitoring the situation. We’ve seen the forums and websites briefly become accessible before going dark again. It’s possible that conflicting DNS information is propagating out there, preventing users from reliably connecting to SOE’s websites, forums, and games.

It seems plausible that the expiration notices from NetworkSolutions have been going to an unread e-mail address at SOE for the last few weeks and NS finally decided to reclaim this one. The expiration for SonyOnline.net was set for 26-may-2014, while today, July 15th, is some 7 weeks later. That’s some grace period!

UPDATE: Although there don’t seem to have been any changes behind the scenes, SOE.com, EverQuest2.com, and other SOE websites all seem to be loading “domain parked” pages full of advertisements now.

UPDATE from EverQuest Next and Landmark Community Manager Colette “Dexella” Murphy who is likely in need of coffee at 5:30am PDT:

We’re working on the SOE games/website/forum issues people are reporting. More news when it’s available! Thanks, everyone.
