As the above question asks, what REALLY annoys you most about the domain industry?

Perhaps it's the unjustified renewal/transfer fees, registrar locks, poor sales platforms and their high commission fees, a lack of more localised events or something else?

Interested to know your thoughts...

The insane number of phone calls and emails that you get after registering a domain.

Huge domains ..Godaddy auctions.. Dropcatch GoWebbie

Also domainers that will argue to the death with you.. They think they state facts but they have never made a sale and have no idea what they are talking about.

I would say in general just the amount of bullshit, hype, fake stuff, etc.

From .XYZ nonsense. Forcing opt-out regs to start with then piling up worthless penny regs. Other new registries also trying to show demand via worthless registrations.

Snake oil salesman (AKA .COM is AM Radio) while at the same time paying absurd prices for .COM on auction sites. Lots of people are willing to flush their credibility down the toilet for money.

You have a new influx of know-nothing know-it-alls who will argue complete nonsense.
Lots of people seem to be going with the fake it until you make it business model now.

GDRP is annoying for many reasons. Escrow.com with this KYC regulations make completing a sale harder than ever when it comes to verification.

Constant spam from people selling crap domains, seo services, logo design, etc.
