Raise the Fist mysteriously down

Many people have been calling, talking, and asking questions as of why raisethefist.com is not accessable...

Raise the Fist domain, raisethefist.com, was first noticed inaccessible on July 19th. The web site's host (server) is NOT down, but the DNS records for the domain have been mysteriously removed. This is why raisethefist.com is currently inaccessible. The domain name is now routing to only one DNS server (NS1.2CP.COM) which is our OLD dns server, and not to our new DNS servers, (NS.HYPODERMIC.NET) as it should be. This mysterious switch raised concerns due to the fact that the email address on record with raisethefist.com, (uca@NETZERO.NET) has been inaccessible for 2 weeks now. The email account still exists, however it has been mysteriously disabled , disallowing the raisethefist.com internic records to be updated by the real owner. The email address was inaccessible approximately a week and a half before the DNS server on the domain mysteriously disappeared. When trying to correct the problem, we reached a major dilemma because the DNS servers could not be fixed unless we have access to the email account, uca@netzero.net , which is registered to the domain.

Network Solutions (our domain name registrar) was contacted July 22nd regarding the problem. We were told a request to change the DNS servers for the domain was put in on July 18th, and a confirmation to process the request was also received by network solutions from the email address, UCA@netzero.net. However this is impossible because we DID NOT have access to our email account at this time (we've been unable to access it for almost 2 weeks now) , unless the password for the email address was changed for the exact reason to tamper with our domain name records, thus disallowing us to correct the problem by not being able to log into our email account.

The tampering with our DNS servers comes at an odd time due to the fact that the webmasters old screen name, "ucaun" has recently been signing on more frequently in the past couple of weeks. The screen name first raised suspicion when it signed on several times while RTF webmaster was in federal prison in New York. Friends accused the FBI of an AIM hack in which the screen name repeatedly signed on while he was in jail. Threats were sent to people, such as "your ass is next" from the screen name.. Several other old screen names the webmaster used before the arrest have also been recently signing on. A friend of the webmaster is also having his screen names tampered with as well. It's been confirmed that the screen names are being tampered with all by one individual. Before the FBI raid, the webmaster also had his AIM screen name (raisethefist) tampered with by the same individual.

As of now it's not yet known WHY the domain name is inaccessible accept that the DNS servers have been mysteriously removed from the domain. There is not yet any confirmation as of whether the FBI has any involvement with deactivating the domain name. However updates will be reported as the problem continues to be resolved.
