    @DeadSeaGulls @Namecheap I understand your feelings and can assure you we never meant to disrespect people of post-soviet countries.

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @kem_sta @mr_felixoid @Namecheap It's about the regime and the tax dollars that directly or indirectly support it.

  • kem_sta Stanislav Kem (@kem_sta) reported

    @VictoriaSavina_ @mr_felixoid @Namecheap Sorry, Victoria, I won't read any comments on it. There is no chance for your company to apologize here. You discriminated against me because of my nationality. But I would not like to give you any labels. I will simply never use your company's products. Bye

  • dnoption J.R. (@dnoption) reported

    @DomainKing @Namecheap @DInvesting This is a slippery slope. They have a right to do so and the free market will reward or punish them. It sucks, because transfers cost $$$. If someone has 100-1,000 domains at Namecheap. It will cost them about $800-$8K to transfer out with a 6 day notice.

  • markessien m_e (@markessien) reported

    Imagine you go on holiday for 2 weeks. Somewhere in between, your Government goes to war, you come back and @Namecheap has shut down all your domains because they blame you for it. People offering infrastructure have to realize that they cannot give 6 days notice for anything.

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @DomainKing @Namecheap @DInvesting Maybe they oppose this war but the majority strongly support Putin which is that catalyst of this war. I can also assure you many Germans also were against Hitler, they were simply drowned out by the zealots.

  • headshottah headshottah (@headshottah) reported

    @Namecheap namecheap must do this or they will lose all their support staff. LoL I guess their paycheck is much less than someone from west.

  • amitgupta Amit Gupta (@amitgupta) reported

    @kovshenin @Namecheap Well, "cheap" is part of their company name, they're just sticking to it when it comes to service & business practice. Also, I wonder if they kicked out their US clients as well because US govt has done the same **** time & again as well.

  • markessien m_e (@markessien) reported

    @Namecheap And all the company employees who are getting paid from the income generated by the domain - will you also re-imburse them? Your decision is a critical vulnerability in our stack now, spoken as a 10 year customer. Your CEO can wake up and decide he does not like my Govt stance on

  • imromec Raj Suthar (@imromec) reported

    @Namecheap Your support team is so poor and not helping customers because of self benefits. If you cannot offer a domain, just release it back so that we can purchase it from somewhere else. @Namecheap suspends domains for its personal benefits by reselling them. That's not acceptable!

  • martinwanderer Martin the Wanderer 🎻 (@martinwanderer) reported

    @Namecheap that I am too lazy to finally leave that bloated crap behind

  • thecriticaleyes 👂🏽🫀🧠 (@thecriticaleyes) reported

    @christina_olii @Namecheap your live chat is down, so i can only speak with you via email, which isn’t immediate. My websites have been indexed and my email has been flagged for spam. Overall, it’s a mess that should have been resolved by now.

  • at_hallett Alexei (@at_hallett) reported

    @NGKabra @Namecheap Hindu nationalism? Does @Namecheap support that?

  • Crypto_C4T Crypto Cat (@Crypto_C4T) reported

    @TXMCtrades @Namecheap I wait to see whole rusian economy wrecked by sanctions, so they stop supporting agresive leaders. I won't shed a tear if some websites are down when I wish they had no eletricity. Today they shelled a kindergarden, I'm more concerned about that.

  • art_spb Artem Khvastunov (@art_spb) reported

    @Namecheap Already did. No rush though as it's just a minor annoyance for me. I can migrate, no problem. It's just not the right moment. But I'd like to point out that such mistakes happen when one looks at someone's nationality instead of their beliefs and actions. It's a questionable path

  • phonolyth Phonolyth (@phonolyth) reported

    @Namecheap @doxa_journal Thankfully I only used your domain services, not hosting. But isn't it true that you've essentially shut down an independent media outlet (@doxa_journal and I guess they are not the only one) *without any prior notice*? That's the same kind of **** P*tin's regime does to them

  • dubstard Mich (@dubstard) reported

    @bantg @Namecheap not as bad as LITERAL blanket targeting civilians with carpet bombs tho

  • NamecheapCEO Richard Kirkendall (@NamecheapCEO) reported

    @Snider_dev @andylehti @Namecheap It's a terrible and senseless situation all around.

  • asphonox Aspho Nox (@asphonox) reported

    @nvk How many wars did US/CA/UK/EU/AUS enter the last 3 decades? Iraq? Somalia just the other day? How about Yemen? Did namecheap close down services?

  • at_hallett Alexei (@at_hallett) reported

    @NamecheapCEO @georgichokov @Namecheap Richard is a hero. In his own mind. Have you volunteered for military service in Ukraine? That’s what I thought.

  • ebbyedet ebby😎 (@ebbyedet) reported

    @markessien @Namecheap Time to dump @Namecheap , why blame the people when it's obvious they ain't even I'm support of the dictator's war🤷

  • JamieMTweets Jamie Maxwell (@JamieMTweets) reported

    @NamecheapCEO @TXMCtrades @Namecheap All you are doing is harming average citizens who have no say in the actions of their government so you can virtue signal. It's a scumbag move that accomplishes nothing.

  • Seth58164981 Seth (@Seth58164981) reported

    @bantg @Namecheap It's a big f you to Putin. Blame your leader for all your problems buddy boy. Act irrational get kicked out.

  • NamesOfLondon Phrases.for.Sale シ (@NamesOfLondon) reported

    @dotsats while I welcome the involvement of Namecheap, having one company control both the TLDs & SLDs would be a really bad thing, esp for a "decentralised" project It could be a hindrance to adoption by others, who might just see it as some pet Namecheap project

  • markessien m_e (@markessien) reported

    @Namecheap something and then shut down my business with 6-day notice. This is absurd and awful for an infrastructure business.

  • dei_xc Dei (@dei_xc) reported

    @Namecheap @bonigex You gave us very little info on what will happen on March 6, “services termination” is a broad term. Will I be able to use my domain and your DNS servers until that 60 days pass? I’ve contacted both Namecheap support (takes them ages to respond) and ICANN as a precaution.

  • at_hallett Alexei (@at_hallett) reported

    @asolovyov @__songgao__ @danluu Putin doesn’t give a **** about Namecheap. He will never even know about it.

  • vasily_m Vasily Simon Myazin (@vasily_m) reported

    @guar47 @Namecheap May be a bit excessive to throw down petty punishment at ordinary people who have nothing to do with what’s happening.
