Why does the unparked domain name seem to point

I moved my domain back to the go daddy servers, and did not ask it to be parked. I have a hosted domain.
The domain had a subdirectory set up before it was set up elsewhere.
Yet, instead of pointing back to the name servers, it is parked and points to that annoying “Want to buy this domain” page.
It gives me the option to activate my domain, but it seems I have to buy something first. Well, I already have a hosting plan with go daddy, so why can’t I just point it to that?

You will want to point the domain’s A record to the IP address of the hosting account. This article will show you how to locate the IP address of the hosting account:

Once you have the IP address, this article will help you update the domain’s A record:
