Shylmysten Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Did u gett it to work? I could not bring the site up? Here is the problem: Registrant Name:Salih Mohammed The name is spelled Salih Mohammed. In nearly every OFFICIAL news article you look up it is spelled Saleh Mohammed. If you look at posts in forums and other dinar related material - even here on dinar vets, people spell it wrong Salih... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPCarter Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Seems any "official" site would have the "iq" domain or something other than "org". Since it is the central bank of the country it seems as though they would use the country specific domain just as they have with the current site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jte70 Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 (edited) It's a piece of crap. It has some silly yahoo name as owner listed on there. And it's a dot org. Edited December 25, 2010 by jte70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And .org is a designation for a Non-for-profit. .com is for commerce. Not sure about this...has anyone tried to call the number...and I wonder if we can get godaddy to confirm this is an OFFICAL site for the Central Bank of Iraq...I mean this would be FRAUD on their servers and they would have to investigate this.

jte70 Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 (edited) Their original extension is .iq which I am guessing is a state owned Web site. That site looks like a joke. Which I guess is good news! And I noticed the Salih thing. Not worth thinking about. Edited December 25, 2010 by jte70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richardk Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Think about this for a minute. What bank do you know would completely shut down their Website while building a new one. Seems a little fishy but, then again this is Iraq. Merry Christmas Go RV/RI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jte70 Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 What bank do I know would replace their site with one that looks like a ten year old made it in the interim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smee2 Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Just my thoughts on this ... First it isn't a ten-year old's artwork you are looking at but the work of a professional, perhaps several years ago, to be used as a temporary page I think. Only thirty plus years in the graphic design and advertising business would cause me to think this. It is good work. It is very dated. It uses three colours: red, blue and black, which gives then a baseline on which to work with a palet should they need to. So I don't believe this is a piece of junk. I do think it may have been an "under construction" page used when their website was first designed, or updated. When I clicked on the redirection, it went to the usual page not available error page. Next, I am old enough to remember the days before computers. Yeah, that's me, born in the days of the dinosaurs! At one time, there was no internet, only a military designed and operated system of communication known as IRC ... anyone remember those good old days? Anyway, as the internet domain thing began, for a time country suffixes, like CA for Canada, where I am, and IQ for Iraq where the bank in question is, were only useable by the government itself. In time it became more common for it to be used by some nationally connected enterprise, like we do now with utility companies and federally funded stuff, and various other things. I really have not had to keep up with the most recent customs. But at one time, they would have had to be a dot-com or dot-org or dot-edu. Things were very limited in the beginning days of the information highway. hahahahaha ... I love being so old I can recall this stuff. Anyway, I don't see the suffix as any indication of what or when or why ... things just change too much over time. Now, what else was there? Oh yes, the closing down thing. Just today I read a post here that explained how sites typically, when making changes or reorganizing, will set up another site on which to work, leaving the original alone, and accessible, while the new one is being worked on and the bugs worked out and then, voila, at the touch of a few keys the old one disappears and the new one is up and functioning. This could be the remnant of such an upgrade of the site, as I said before, at any time, maybe even current. So, that's it, my thoughts. Thanks for reading. smee2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
