Not only that the .Org Community is against this deal, but also against any deal that would put the .Org Impartiality, Affordability, and Nonprofit Values and Principals at Jeopardy for the Existing or Future Generation .Org Registrants.

What @Ategy is trying to say which I understand is that you are free to express your opinion about a less than positive experience that you might have had with a specific company or individual that provided you with some kind of a service or product, but to expand that to include a whole race of...
As you know I have great respect and admiration for you as someone who is trying to empower others through domain names and digital presence and I hope that the feeling is mutual as I also consider myself as someone who wants to do some good for the Humanity and the Environment and as such I...
I don't think anyone ever thought of Rob as being a scammer, some people were unhappy about some of his promotions and personal beliefs which to a great extent was a very subjective matter and perhaps could be accounted to having differences of opinion between the Right and the Left of the...
I believe that the Prudent thing for Anan to have done it that situation was to tell Rob that he would get back with him to address his question at a later time if there was no more time left in that session.

If there are going to be any restrictions put in place or promises made by anyone for protecting the .org registrants' rights and interests we just have to make sure that there is no time limit attached to them that will make them expire when it comes to the future generation registrants.
Yes...
Newbies can make the domain Industry bigger and can give more credibility to domaining if they act responsibly both when it comes to handling their finances and domaining strategies so that they don't come across as people who are addicted to this hobby and can't control themselves and also by...
As long as you reduce the yearly membership fees for the Domain Discount Club to something more reasonable like around $49.00 dollars and as long as you include free domain privacy and Auction membership for those who are DDC members then I believe that more domainers will be happy with GoDaddy...
We are taking Confederate statues out of public areas in most places and we have made some Nazis materials illegal because they are offensive to some people and belong to an era that is best to be left behind, but amazingly some people still want to keep the Daddy name even though it might be...
I like "Divine Capitalist" better. :)
One that puts God above all earthly treasures, and uses his wealth and power to serve humanity.
By the way the .com is available.

It's great to see your empowerment program in action, it might be good to also add the option of giving domain donations along with the grant and loan programs that way people can donate a domain or two directly to the newbies to help them get a head start with their domain ventures.

And in the process of facilitating and running this platform I don't think that it's unfair for Epik to make a little money so that Rob can take care of his employees.
IMO
Does there have to be any interactions or communications between the borrower and the lender or could this all be done automatically through Epik with each side only known to and interacting with Epik.
That's a very valid question,
I have a few questions to ask myself, but out of fairness to everyone I am not going to direct them at just one CEO, but rather at all who set the tone and policies for the domain industry.
Why don't the registrars give the full 35 days to registrants to renew...
I don't see anything wrong about saying that he is Indian in the context of associating him with someone who is knowledgeable about the domain market and empowerment strategies in India, why would you think of that as being something negative.

@Mod Team Bravo , thanks for your support and your attention to this issue.
Constructive debate and engagement and exchange of ideas can bring value both to the members of the community here in the forum and also to the domain Industry at Large. Perhaps a new badge can be issued to those...
There has to be a balance between corporations' interests and rights and the public's interests and rights.
For a private equity company to take over .org which many think of as being a public resource will be the same as if a private company is taken over and nationalized.
There has to be...
