discuss Domaining is a investing or a addiction?

[Phina]

Hello everyone!

Just a simple question domaining is a investing or a addiction for you?

For me this's addiction but without namepros this domaining is just a investing.

Could you complete this line:
Without namepros domaining___________?

Why namepros matter?

Whenever i feel bored and free then i don't open the other social apps only comes on namepros.

Domaining is a business to some- who legitimately have a action plan- to profit and a proven system.
If you make no money for years and just buying still then that may have an addiction
or lack of business acumen.

Hey @Paul why was the OP account closed?
It smelled like a bored member creating a duplicate account to troll away.
Kudos for picking up on whatever the team picked up on hopefully you will fill us in

Hey @Paul why was the OP account closed?

It’s likely a duplicate account, but the circumstances are messy and still being investigated.

That’s very unlikely. It was more likely a poor attempt to gain trust.

Hey Paul, @MasterOfMyDomains asked a valid question. I hate the ambiguous “disallow”, what the other accs? Is there any way to show the main account?

I really appreciate your follow-up reply to it; i was alluding to anon dvs on his valid question;
why do we still have anonymous downvotes, @Paul?

Addicting and potentially risky.

Spent quite a bit of money on my domains and still no sales.

You need to study more and change your perspective.

Domaining is a huge time investing in the big dreams that with time pay our big bills. For me personally, it's working and helped me a lot in bad times.

Neither. Imo, at this time, domaining is a battle:

1) a "battle" with marketplaces trying to charge more and more, decreasing the quality and adding more bugs as the same time

2) a "battle" with fraudsters who are trying to "sell" you domains as theirs via mass frontrunning. Including listing your domains as theirs on Dan, Afternic etc. It also inclludes brokerage "firms" (who are representing themselves as such), just to secure the price and spam the whole world with your domain before they pay.

3) a "battle" with auction houses, including expired auctions, as the level of fraud and potentially corruption is enormous.

4) a "battle" with other domainers who are involved in corruption / NDA schemes (--> unfair advantage for them)

Agree. The battle or probably even risky sport if quick money is needed or big investment was done.

Most people probably see it as both investment and addiction. Some people may need to take a break to not turn it into risky gambling.

I have all the domain names I want. I do domain name consulting as a hobby. I find it fun.
