Network already exists

Hey, I've just started my own network up, and I've gone to register it with SearchIRC.

I've noticed that it already exists on SearchIRC, but its not been indexed. It says the SearchIRC indexer has been banned on their page.

I am just wondering if there's any way I can get indexed now as they don't wish to be indexed.

If you say what the networks name is, SearchIRC staff will be able to reactivate it for you.

The network name is IRCWhore.

It looks like its already registered to someone, but they've banned the crawler.

I think there's been a little bit of confusion (perhaps its me),

I don't know if this is possible, but the IRCWhore is already in your database, but it's not being used. The DNS for irc.ircwhore.net is timing out, and the servers on the Server List / MOTDs page don't exist either.

I was wondering if I could use this for my own network, not affiliated to the IRCWhore network you already have in your database.

I own ircwhore.org.uk.

you'd need to submit it as "ircwhore.org.uk" then. You can't use IRCWhore unless you own a .com/.net/.org and NO ONE else is using those domains. e.g; if you own ircwhore.com and someone else owned ircwhore.net, you'd both need to use the domain.tld, and no one would get "ircwhore"
