Old talk

Would it make sense to say something here about how *.ru emails have a reputation for being spam? -- Dandelions 19:18, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why is 99% of my SPAM from the .ru domain? Are there regulations that the rest of the world must follow, but .ru domains are exempt from? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.8.11.141 (talk) 18:53, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Second level domains

Why does the wikipedia article say that they don't offer second level domains directly under .ru anymore and still i find many sites like http://www.nic.ru/ that are offering those...? -- 85.134.26.70 (talk) 22:15, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Who is "they"? CC TLD RU (the current official registry for .ru) allows second level domains through accredited registrars such as the one that you mentioned. RIPN (the former official registry) until recently continued to be responsible for managing and offering third level domains under .net.ru, .org.ru, etc., but I believe they've now sold that business to another company. — Tetromino (talk) 17:27, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
