## Who can use NS records?

We allow NS records for the following reasons and users:

- is-a.dev maintainers

- Users who are using **multiple** Cloudflare (or similar providers') services, which often require their own zones (e.g., DynDNS, cloudflared tunnels, etc.)
65-
- Users who require a private zone, as they are using their home IP addresses behind Cloudflare (These cases will be carefully reviewed, as we understand some may claim to use a home IP address when they are not.)

- Users with a lot of nested subdomains *may* be allowed to register NS records so they do not have to manage multiple files.

## Why are you so strict with NS records?
72+
We have to be strict with who we delegate NS records to as they allow the end-user to do basically *whatever they want* with their subdomain.
73+
74+
As you can probably imagine, this can open the door to a lot of abuse, which is why are they are not freely available to everyone.
75+

If we could, we would delegate NS records to everyone that wanted them, however this is not a perfect world, so unfortunately we cannot.

## How can I make changes to my is-a.dev subdomain?
7479
1. **Open your JSON file:** Navigate to the `domains` directory in your fork and open the JSON file corresponding to your subdomain (`domains/subdomain.json`).

2. **Make your changes:** Edit the JSON file (or delete) to reflect the changes you want to make.
