who is domibot?


I keep coming up against domibot, who are they?

loads of expiring domains i watch end up in the clutches of domibot and its beginning to frustrate me

they have a site domibot.com but it doesnt give any clues

if anyone knows who they are i would love to know, or if anyone knows how they are snapping these names up so quickly

I was wondering too.
I noticed that this company (?) is grabbing all the dropping names I want o
They use a registrar called CAPITOLDOMAINS, LLC (http://www.capdom.com/). I don't know if they actually operate that registrar.

They act in the same fashion as domaincar, that is they test the names for traffic for a few days then may release some.
They have actually just released one name and I grabbed it one hour ago so don't despair o

I think it is our fellow member Legend.Name i am not sure, but seems like... maybe he can confirm himself

Or maybe its not him, just saw domibot.com in one of his domain's WHOIS, but that isn't really an evidence

I am sorry if i am wrong.

They even snatched up my domain and its variants, only to drop it back within 5 days.

Luck me. I disgust them.

the whois at that time shows off address in Venezuela.

I think they also offer drop catching services.

Bloody Hell, they launch terror attack on Microsoft.
Any dotster.com supporters here ??

I would consider myself a Dotster supporter, sker. I (happily) host with them. No idea about this, though...
