My question is why is this such a big stinking deal?
These domains sat unused for years. Links have been pointing to www.furry.org for the "FurryMUCK WebStation" for nearly as long. Just because somebody is selling these unused domains we suddenly care about them? If they were such a big deal and so important to the MUCK then action should have been taken by the WizCorp to secure them to the "rightful owners" long ago. I don't have a terrible lot of sympathy for their plight -- you snooze, you lose.
Ultimately, this is nothing but a tempest in a teapot. I'd lay odds that once this is all settled, no matter who gets it the sites will sit empty for another few years.
