What?

Emoji symbols can now be used for domain registrations! They get converted to xn (idn-like) format.

We just found out about this ourselves and, of course, we immediately registered .com and other selected extensions.

Good luck with your registrations. Whether you'll be bothered or not, please let us know through our mega brief poll.

Enjoy your day!

No you didn't.

 

[Wesley S]

where did you reg it? cant at epik.com

 

[Samer]

No you didn't.

he probably meant to say “.ws” or “.to”

Unlikely. It's invalid in .ws and it's free in .to

 

[s.g]

No, we don't mean .ws

@pb check the website again. There is a message there for you...

Which website?

Until things get sorted/propagated, you can also use www.xn1ugy405pdua.com

Sorry to break it to you but xn1ugy405pdua.com is just a random gibberish domain, idn version of the rainbow flag is xn--1ugy405pdua and it cannot be registered in .com or most of the other extensions.

In that case we've just been scammed and this thread will get automatically deleted.

Darn, such a dream!

I bought 3 long ago just for fun:

.ws
.ws
.ws

Last time I checked emoji .com where not allowed. Are there updates to that?

I think 1 symbol 'single emoji' .com will have a future, once everything goes back to normal of course.

But @pb says .ws don't allow them, just like .com ... now we are truly confused.

it’s not allowed .com for sure.

ICANN re geezers “security” thread or some bs

 

[AK85]

.ws is totally allowed. Type .ws in your browser & you will go to my dan page.

 

[s.g]

In that case we could be lucky with our dot com (as it was sold to us after we used the emoji itself).

.ws allows emojis but only the short ones I think.
The rainbow flag is marked invalid when you check it in .ws

I agree. @s.g Read the 3rd paragraph here.
I would ask refund.

That's a very informative site. It is emoji news, after all. Thanks to your/their input, though.
