Minecraft Automatic SRV and A record maker (Website Review)
http://mcserverdns.com/
I need your honest opinons on my website that I am working on. It is meant for minecraft servers to auto create SRV records and A records for their servers. I tried to make it as simple as possible. What do you think? Be brutally honest!

Interesting...
An interesting idea for IP:port services (IRC/web/FTP/SSH running on non-standard port)
First world problems...
Nice, you should make a DIY tutorial on there too though
Yup I can do that, very easy with minecraft.
Love it
What does the DNS actually run on? Bind?
Hey! Where's my credit for being awesome :P
@BlueVM Cloudflare
AsadHaider - So it connects to cloudflare's API to make new entries?
Won't that get confusing after the 4,000th entry?
@BlueVM Yeah, and no idea.. blame Spencer if it breaks
We're looking at offering free yourchoice.bvm.mx domains to our clients, I like the idea of using cloudflare, but could you imagine loading the dns page on the actual site if the entries got above about 200 or so?
Yup it just calls the API and creates them. I never have to log in to the cloudflare panel at all so it won't be confusing at all.
Yea its not much at all, only about 200 lines of code at most
I suppose I could just avoid loading that page and use the API for everything... not a bad idea.
@zen - :-)
Yup that is what we do. I just have a little script on that will remove them. But the issue is that cloudflares api is a little mehh. There is currently no search feature at all. So you can't send it a dns record and have it return if it is valid or not, along with a few other features. You really can't get any info from the api it is really only put minus a few api calls.
That is so much more work think lazy like me!
With big zones, CF loads the records only as you scroll. With really big zones, after a while it shows a 'Load more records' button instead.
IMHO, "mcserverdns.com" is too long.
It's a shame that Monaco requires you to have a registered business in their country to get one of their TLDs. You'd be able to get dns.mc for about $50 a year...
If you add a number to your domain (something short like "a1"), you can often get a 2char ccTLD. It's not optimal, but if you really need something short, it's better than nothing.
Or you could try snagging one of the few remaining 3char .me domains. When I grabbed mine last year (vkk.me) I believe there were under 10 remaining (at least according to what I used to find vkk), but there might be some left. Unfortunately, I lost the link to the site with the listings, so you'd need to do some digging to find it again.
Yea im working on adding an option so you can pick, I just can't find any good short mc related domains.
Ahhh damn that would be sweet.
mcservr.com?
Just bought thanks
How does it work?
