Default Changing the forumer domain

Is it possible to change the name used in the original forumer domain. Example:

My current URL is: http://map1.15.forumer.com

Is it possible to change it to:

http://msd2.15.forumer.com

Without changing the forums at all?

Thanks.

This is not possible. The only way to make such a change would be to start over.

Please do not PM me for support.

By "start over" winnopeg means to register and create a new forum.
This is something you would probably like to avoid if your community is fairly well established.
May I suggest buying a domain or maybe just attaining a free one to solve this problem?
Thanks for choosing Forumer!

Regards,

Are there any free domain names other than .tk? .tk doesn't work on my computer, any website using .tk always shows up as blank page with "Unable to be Displayed" on it.
