First of all I should express my gratitude for such a lovely platform. I enjoyed using Discourse every moment and I wish moving to another platform is not the only option. We have a small brewing community in Turkey, at craftbeertr.com and we have been using discourse happily for the last 3-4 years…

Well, it’s not just testing. I planned to move yesterday but when I received the message about the DNS, I changed my mind and decided to wait a couple of days (hoping that it will resolve itself :slight_smile: ). Thank you very much for the feedback and guidance. I thought I must point out the name…
