Hi Dashworlds,
I am very concerned about the implications and intentions of one of the items in your Terms and Conditions. Specifically, item 5.6:
"5.6. The Company may terminate this agreement at any time and cancel the Customers registration of the Domain Name if the Customer fails to pay when due any Fee, or in the case of free domains at any time or for whatever reason. Following such termination and/or cancellation the Domain name may be resold by the Company and registered in the name of any new customer."
This term makes it hard for a domainer to gain trust in Dashworlds as a registrar, as it is an overly vague and broad statement. It would be one thing if the terms specified that a domain registration could be canceled if used for illegal purposes, etc, but to say "at any time or for whatever reason" is scary to me -- it makes me question whether all of the time I am spending coming up with great domains to register will turn out to be wasted b/c Dashworlds could, on a whim, take all of the domains back from me. It causes particular concern because it makes one wonder if once a domain becomes valuable, Dashworlds will just take it back and then sell it to the highest bidder (or something similar).
Can you please explain the reasoning for item 5.6? Even better, would you consider modifying your terms to not be so over-reaching?
I know many other domainers who are not even bothering with dash-com domains specifically because of this clause in the terms and conditions.
Your prompt attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
