As someone that I assume has a bad rep on NP. A lot people hate me on here or think I'm annoying or dumb or grimey or just all around bad person.

As someone who wants to sell on NP or other domain sites does one's reputation in the domainer community really affect sales? even at auction?

Is domain privacy a necessity?

Or does that domain itself speak for itself and no one cares about rep of the seller?

This is an issue with me now as I want to promote my GD auctions on NP but now I feel can't and if I promote on other outlets my auctions. I'll need privacy? which is an extra charge on Godaddy?

So does rep matter?

I tend to write some threads that literally piss of people on NP. The only plus is sometimes those threads generate 30,000 views and over 1000 replies.

Not sure if that's a good or bad thing if in the end people hate me.

This is why you never see me on the NP auctions thread or putting up my domains for sale or auctions on my signature.

kinda shot myself in the foot really. Plus can't delete threads that are up beyond the 15 minute time allowed to delete it.

oh well.

Also, as my mother would say. "Live your life. no regrets. can't please everybody." Good advice from a 4 foot 10 79 year old Filipino lady. lol

Reputation and credibility matters in general, not just with domains. It helps to build trust.

However, I think there is a difference between pissing people off and being a scammer or something.
There are plenty of people I disagree with that I would still do business with.

I doubt many people are going to lose interest in a domain they are interested in, because you pissed them off.

When you try pull others up on it they try and drag you down into it.

I will deal with anyone if they have a domain I want or if they want to buy one of mine.

The difference is how I deal with them and how much due prudence I perform. A stellar namepros rep and I'm probably going to do business on a handshake. Spotty reputation and we have to dot the i's and cross the t's before the transaction concludes.

Ps @WhoaDomain.com you have a perfect feedback score so I would not worry about the content of a few posts. We all say and do thing we wish we could delete the next day but that does not affect your credibility when it comes to sales. The feedback score on namepros is what we look at first and you have nothing to worry about there. (y)

I've encountered just as many shady stuff being pulled by people with a stellar rep as by relatively newbies.

I've seen old time members not following through, people with over 200 trade reviews not honouring deals. It's all there when you pay attention.

That being said, to me personally rep matters. It's like karma. I like to keep it clean :)
