Domainers are BORING

[h2o]

I was reading a domaining blog that begged the question. Are domainers are boring? My answer would be yes. Domainers are boring. Sorry to admit it.

Here are the topics that get recycled over and over again at this and other domaining forums (in no order).

1) Is xxxxx.com considered a trademark? / What an unfair UDRP decision!
2) Is .com really king?
3) The LLLL bubble is bursting. Oh no. LLL is next.
4) All the good domains are taken.
5) How much is my lsjljds;ajsf.com domain worth?
6) The Schwartz-Schilling-Ham Machine is one mighty machine.
7) A discussion of whether i or e prefix names are better.
8)BREAKING NEWS: I think [inserthere].com was way OVER/UNDER priced.
9).Green/.blue/.sex/.web/.eco is going to shatter the virtual interspace. (No its not. Yes it is.)
10)Is domain parking dead? No wait, minisites are it.
11) Are hyphens really that bad. How about SEO?
12) Let's laugh at all the names we regged when we were drunk.
13) .Mobi is dead (and .tel is better discussion?)
14) Development is key or Google will punish you to hell (or is it?)
15) Domains don't matter anymore (or do they?)

Yep its true.

Domains are boring but fun to make money!

Yes! I definitely need to take some classes in comedic relief, then find myself a girlfriend (or have I mixed up those two priorities as well...)

Ha!

...Work on humour & laughter - and, the 'girlfriend' issue will take care of itself. Guaranteed.

Laughter is one of the two greatest aphrodisiacs... :D

I avoided the domain forums for this reason. I party on the weekends, study during the days, posting on forums doesnt provide any benefit these days. Just seems to take away my time. Better time spent other places

Although I agree many (if not all) of the topics you listed are constantly being opened as new threads (nobody, and this applies to ALL forums, uses the 'search' function), you have to understand this is a business forum. Like all business-related places, it may be boring or not, it's up to each one.

I'm still confused as to how this has anything to do with domainers being boring.

All this proves is that new people getting into the business are asking the same questions that the old pros asked when they were getting into the business. How is that boring? It's called learning, which is exactly what forums and asking questions are for. Show me a job/industry where new people getting into in DON'T have the same questions as the people that have already experienced it.

And the subject of a thread cant be changed, or you get reprimanded for straying off topic, so all in all, you just read the threads that interest you, and no-one gets bored. If you can't find a thread that holds your interest, you are not a domainer.

16) Godaddy stole another domain, damn them!
17) Sign up for this sweet new registrar, 4.99 for .com
18) DAMNIT THEY STOLE MY DOMAIN

it's a domain forum so the topics are specific to the domain topics.
