DDNet.tw Domain lost, use DDNet.org

Recently, we lost control of the domain ddnet.tw due to a botched transfer between registrars. Older clients (pre 16.4) rely on this domain for info, maps, updates, and more, meaning they are no longer safe to use.

A former community member has managed to buy the expired domain. Unfortunately, they refuse to return it, forcing us to discontinue support for these older clients.

While we have monitored the situation and have not observed any malicious activity yet, we can't guarantee this will remain the case, and we don't want to take unnecessary risks.

What to do:

• Do NOT click the "update" button in the client, as this could compromise your system.
• Download a fresh copy of the client from our website.
• Avoid clicking or using links from ddnet.tw.
• Fix or report places where the ddnet.tw domain is used instead of ddnet.org on our Discord.

If the domain is returned to us in the future, we may be able to restore functionality for these old versions. Until then, these clients will remain banned on DDNet servers.

UPDATE:

The person who took over the DDNet.tw domain was SP | Someone. His goal was to make sure old clients keep working. He has graciously returned the domain to us without even accepting payment, so old clients will work again! Thank you SP | Someone!
