Hi there.

Guys, could you propose any proof registrar that has nice support and (important) good DNS management software?

PS: I hope DNS hosting is free as well

Yeah I can attest to that.. as a customer I haven't noticed any changes. Long may it continue.

I will tag on here and ask if any have good port forwarding (For a Minecraft server that has a weird port).

DNS has nothing to do with port forwarding... so your question is a little odd.

My comment still stands. Domain hosts have nothing to do with port forwarding...

Port forwarding must be done on your router, once the DNS is pointing to it.

I'm with 1st domains and are quite happy with the options it provides for domain management. 1 thing it doesn't have is the ability to add AAAA records. Probably not an issue for you, however, if you are like me and have got an a native ipv6 connection to your web server (in my case, my home htpc) it's a bit of a shame to not provide that.
You can work around that by having a cname record pointed to a dyndns account which allows you to add an AAAA record. Seems to work fine, as long as your ipv4 address is not updated due to different issue with dyndns.

Pretty cheap as well.
