The final nail in the coffin for BLiNC. Do you know how to check domain regsitration with WHOIS? That might answer your question.

At least then maybe that this forum can stop purporting to be a forum for those thinking about getting into BASE.

Prepare for lots of no-jump wonders running around talking about "bee cee dahhhht cahm"...

Re: [cpoxon] Whats the story behind Basecamp site
Don't count on it being a BASE jumping site, it very easly could be a camping/Climbing site since I know both of those activities use the term basecamp a lot more then the BASE world seems to. Climbing specifically uses that term a lot more then anyone else does and aaccourding to a survey on here a while back a lot of members would also visit a site about climbing Wink

Re: [cesslon] Whats the story behind Basecamp site
It's not a BASE site.

It's a climbing site. It's still in test mode, and not yet an operating concern. It's unclear if it will be going up in that form or not. There has been a climbing test group/forum here on DZ.com for some time, as well.

I'm sure if he wants to Sangiro will elaborate.
