    This doesn't mean that Starmade is at fault, I am investigating.~

    The whois data looks totally diffrent but the dates are similar enough to raise an eyebrow

    Updated Date: 18-mar-2014
    Creation Date: 07-sep-2013
    Expiration Date: 07-sep-2015

    The current site was Updated recently, 18th of march we were all here for that, but both sites were registered with in a month of each other, back in 2013, almost like someone was squatting them. I doubt the starmade team set up the sites back in 2013 when star-made.net was still reasonable, so the question becomes if they got this site off someone? maybe a member of the admin team had them both on the side or something?

    The domain is owned and operated by Gamer Dock LTD, the company that runs these forums. A space engineers forum was planned before the StarMade Forums, and the domain was used to park it for later use, that never happened and it was still parked at starmadedock.net when the site was released.

    The issue has been resolved and will be pointed at the Space Engineers website till/if the company decides to create it.

    Thread over, nothing to do here. you don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

    Just in case the site gets changed before the mod team get to give it their full attention, I know any one can edit an image, or even just the URL string, but an image is better than no image so don't complain.

    Could be just a normal member, domain names aren't too expensive and I think a few threads have shown a few people not really liking SE very much.

    It very well could be, in fact it is very easily with in the realms of something I would do. so I won't call shenanigans just yet. I am looking into it, I am ridik and I should know all If I don't know whats true or not about this, well then I ain't worth shit.

    Just FYI this was totally not Mushroom Fleet.

    Also INB4 anybody can do this. for just $6 a year.
    It has Domain Privacy so if this is owned by an individual, you cannot find the owner.

    To be completely honest, I think you're giving it more thought than it deserves. But hey, if you actually manage to uncover something, good for you.
