It is not exactly free, you work hard for it. It is called free as you do not have to spend a penny. All you have to do is register at ddboard.com and post there and/or participate in incentives and collect ddpoints.; that is their currency. After you have the needed sum, redeem for your domain. Simple...
It does seem like a lot of work, but it's a cool promotional idea anyway. I bet lots of people will participate in this, and the value they'll add to the site will more than offset the cost of buying them a domain.
I would think it would take up to 1 month possibly for the .info and 2 - 3 months for any of the domains that are 2500 points are higher. What I would worry about is posters who are spammers. And does the forum have great mods or super mods to keep vigilant during this time of active posting for a free domain.
I'm not sure if you are referring to ddboard, or Geek Domain which is my site. Geek Domain has several active moderators to fight spam and keep the peace between users.
I am referring to ddboard.com. I got my domains in less than 1 month. I cannot use paypal and other means from Mauritius, that's why i prefer this way of doing things.
Ok. I can understand that. With that in mind you might want to try Ezyrewards and DomainLagoon for for free domains. You usually can get them in under 48 hours.
If you're looking to buy domains this way, try DNTemple. You get about 10 DNPoints per topic, and 5 DNPoints per reply. 1000 DNBucks for a .com! =D
