The bid has nothing to do with this debate. Anyways that was Handled between me and the seller. How is he a legitimate domainer? what is he doing other than hoarding domains for his own personal game? | ||||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Well you stated your opinion as fact, that what he was doing was not what the internet was created for. When there is no one reason, there are no limited 100 reasons. The fact is the registering of domains is perfectly legal and legit. NO opinion that is a 100 % complete fact. |

![]() If you own a piece of land, it's yours. In Texas you're entitled to enforce your property line with violence if need arises. If you rent an apartment, no landlord can evict you if you pay your rent on time and you're otherwise in compliance with regulations. No matter the point of view - whether you own a domain or merely rent it, IF you're paying your annual dues and don't violate any laws, it's no one's fair game to take. If one applies the concept of generic abbreviations onto the domain concept, it should be even less possible to steal someone's assets as there's no valid reason. Or, point in case: www.gmail.de - many will remember the story - the same/closely similar rules apply????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=462891 M. | ||||

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=462891 So far it seems that you can only park pure geo names, as country and city names can not be TMed, and pure generic names. All other names are better to 'unpark'? And would having a valuable, non generic name, 'unparked' be enough? Of course developing might be better, although many here have hundreds or even thousands of (valuable) names and developing many of them is practically impossible. Would having a 'coming soon' page instead of 'unparking' or even a simple picture like for example ozb.com already be a better alternative then 'unparked' with really nothing to see? | ||||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Great analogy ![]() He took the risk, he bought the domains, they should be his to do what he pleases with... This is a very bad precedent to set and if it's not rectified may very well encourage even more reverse hijacking... I can see some unethical domainers jumping aboard, creating corporations with 2-3 letter acronyms and taking a chance on a few UDRPs

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=462891 If you had as much money as him you would probably invest into a large percentage of certain markets too. I really hesitated in replying to anything you said because of the legitimacy of the nature of your comments. I will most likely not respond to your response. ![]() EDIT: Just read your last post. Whatever dude. You have too much time on your hands.

If owning 1 name and not "legitimately using" it aka parking it or putting nothing on it is hoarding, then that makes YOU (nor any of us) no different than HIM and thereby indicates we all have the right for our domains to be taken from us by companies on the simple basis that they have more money and can afford to bully us. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=462891 So...which is it? The impossible-to-determine "magic number" of domains that people are supposed to own, or all of us including you are hoarding names and are not doing what's best for the internet?

I suppose that there is something like Judge & Jury in the form of one corporation or administrative panel - Wipo. In which case, numbers don't matter, usage matters and how we are being TOLD that we're allowed to use domains. M. | ||||

Funny you should mention this. I have a site specifically set up for the sale of my own domains. Last week I noticed in the log that the site was visited by both Uspto and Wipo within 1 hour of each other! | ||||
