Thanks, Void. That was in the ballpark I was going for.
What's used is a third party hosting service. It's paid for each month by the other individual. The site itself is by no means part or for an organization or company. It's a personally run website that I designed and have managed and operated. I'm both the systems administrator as well as the website designer. Yet the other individual feels its their website when they legally own the domain and pay for the server space each month. I disagree. I feel the website itself is mine, as I made it.
It's a community website and I made it both for myself and the community, so it was to the benefit of the respective community.
This is basically where I'm standing right now. Someone yelling at me it's THEIRS and wanting to do with it as they please, and me disagreeing because I've spent years of hard work managing, designing, tweaking, and working on it. I'm the grunt worker in the steam room, but it's to the benefit of the community participants and I've designed it to be a pleasant userfriendly interface for them. I guess I'm viewing it sort of like, my science project is in my friends house, therefore my friend considers it their science project. It makes no sense.
I just want to figure out if I even have a dog to bark in saying "I made it, it's legally mine." They can keep their domain name and server for all I care. :smileyvery-happy:
