I still think Mike was a total asshole for not having it link to this site anyway. Whatever. *shrug* *NM*

They clearly still retain ownership of the domain, and there are plenty of people out there (relatively speaking, within the WoT world) who still remember wotmania. It would be utterly foolish of Dragonmount not to use the wotmania domain to drive traffic to their site, even if it did nothing more than re-direct to the homepage without mentioning wotmania at all.
As it is though, an error page? What? I don't believe it. My guess is that they intended to leave the letter to wotmania refugees up for a year, and then do something different. That "something different" either hasn't been implemented yet, or they never bothered to check if their change went into effect (they may have set it up to change automatically, and just assumed it would work).
In any case, seems like an email to the Dragonmount fellas would clear this up quickly.
EDIT: It appears from a link on their homepage that they moved to a new site design / technical format a week ago. My guess is that the update broke the wotmania link.

www.wotmania.com no longer leads to a Dragonmount page letting people know where we are.

Honestly, it's probably an oversight, or a temporary measure. EDIT

He didn't really communicate at all during the last month or two.

He never considered wotmania anything more than a WoT fan site...

Me, too. For a long time I was like it didn't matter, we owed the guy for the site, blah blah blah.

Was it you who came up with that exporting software? Worked fine for me, once I figured it out.

Quite. I never considered him part of the community. Ever.

Yeah, he checked out and then was definitely phoning everything in at the end.

No, he goes to "womania.com" but sometimes accidentally types a "t".

Funny, in ten or so years I never accidentally found that site. Good tips on the rhythm method.
