Well what is going to happen is monoman is going to move the website to a different server. Since it's a different computer, it will be hosted at a different IP address. What it means is that the DNS server which resolves a domain name like macgamingmods.com will still direct users to the old IP address until it updates with the new IP address will still point people to the old IP address. DNS servers are like phone books which translate URLs to IP addresses. Since there are a lot of DNS servers all over the world, some may take longer to update than others.
