Wink Have you received any messages from dot asia about .asia domains?


I am waiting for the messages from dot asia company. I understand that the domain auction will start on 17/03/08 and still I haven't received anything from them about the domains I have been successful and the domains going into auction.

I think it is becoming ridiculous now without getting any info about the domains we applied.

Frustrating !!!!!

How do we prepare for the auctions if we don't know anything about what is happening?

I know that the auction will be at pool. But I don't have any info from dotasia yet whether my domains are going to auction or about verification etc...

The auction will start at 17 and how on earth we are not hearing anything from them.

Yeah, its ridiculous - the silence is deafening lol...

We know its at pool.com but you cant even login or do anything until getting the details from your registrar/dotasia registry for the auction(s). So badly organized.

Exactly, the auction is starting in a few hours time and we are stuck with doubts about what to do next. Just, just simply pathetic.

Agree, the dot ASIA organization is proving to be extremely useless.

It seriously cannot be that hard to develop a system with all registrars thats simply updates your domains status. Is it reserved, Is it pending registration, Is it going to auction - the time/date and login information.

They promote the 13th of march everywhere as the end of the landrush, so i would expect that within an hour of the time passing, every registrar would know the status of our domains.

Hopefully the value of our ASIA domains will outweigh their terrible service.

Are we sure that the auctions are for 2008? Are the auctions scheduled for 2009 ?

Not sure now.

This bad management does not bode well for .asia valuations, IMO. A good structure is vital for new TLDs.

Where did the date of 17th March come from? According to http://www.dotasia.org/about/auctions.html there are still several days of sunrise applications to get through before the next lot?

Sunrise has finished many years ago. Look at the auction list and you will see March 17 , auction starts.

Sorry maybe I'm using the wrong terminology.

Those auctions listed on the 17th, 18th etc are all reserved names aren't they? I tried for several names listed a week ago and was unsuccessful.

I heard that Sunrise 1 reopened when Landrush started on 20 Feb. I'm not sure whether the Sunrise 1 is still open, hopefully it has ended with Landrush together. Coz I'm also waiting eagerly for the update, not sure whether my names fall into the single application or multiple applications.

Again, anyone tell me where March 17 came from? The auctions listed on http://www.dotasia.org/about/auctions.html are all for domains applied for weeks ago - http://dotasia.org/info/DotAsia-Doma...2008-02-27.txt.

So is this panic that the auction's about to start today a little premature?

it's already screwed up. i guess i will bid too high and not pay. it's the only way to pain them back. i don't think ICANN will do anything about their (dotAsia's) mistake (such as getting people pay for domains for landrush and then telling that the domain is 'funny' reserved [you don't get a 'cancelled refund' in registrars such as eurodns.com]) or crime (such as taking as many as possible domains to auctions).

I applied for domains like trading and email and they are on the auction list. I applied well before 20/2/08. The domains appear both on the lists. In that case, I am not allowed to participate in the auction because of so called pioneer application or whatever ???
