    Hey guys, I just thought I should share this cool news with you all!

    As of today, when you type in stockforum.net in your web browser, it should redirect you into this site here.

    If one of you wouldn't mind trying that out whenever you see this and let me know if you got it working fine on your end would be amazing.

    I was a bit surprised to see that domain name hadn't been taken yet! So, I thought I would grab it for our site here.

    Hope this new domain makes it a little more easier getting to this website. :)

    great to hear that! thx for confirming :thumbsup:

    btw @stock1234, i'd also be curious to hear if your malwarebytes blocks this new domain name on your end?

    i know that you've previously had issues getting on this site with your laptop via the primary domain name -> stonkforums.com but what about this new one? still the same results for you?

    not sure why your malwarebytes would even flag this site as a malicious site. it's a super head scratcher tbh. and it seems like you might be the only one experiencing that issue :(

    Still not working on my computer unfortunately. I think malwarebytes is blocking a few other relatively safe site from me and I am not sure why lol, it is ok, I can still visit this forum on my phone or on my iPad without issue :)

    Just bought the following domain name today: https://stockforum.net

    Can anyone let me know if it is working for you? It should just redirect you into this site.

    BTW, @stock1234 this is an old post, but I was just curious to hear if you are still able to access this forum from your computer. I tried to send you an e-mail over this past weekend asking to get an update on this but not sure if you ever got it. Hopefully Malwarebytes and Avast aren't blocking you again.

    Thanks for confirming all is working fine on your end @stock1234!

    BTW, I changed the name one final time today because I was really wanting a ".com" domain for this site.

    We are now called StocksForums.com

    https://stocksforums.com/

    Hoping everyone is still able to access this site after all of these changes this week!

    Really sorry for all the updates.

    Well, this is a little nice surprise. I was just doing a quick Google search for "stock market forums" when I noticed we were listed on the 2nd page under that key phrase. Are you guys also seeing that on your end? Really curious about that. Would be really helpful for us going forward as we were previously listed on like the 7th or 8th page which is really buried in the search. This was part of the reason why I thought going with a dot com domain name would help. Those seem to be a little more attractive than a dot net name.
