I do not think he has proof to back up his claims.

BTW, has the $6.99 and $5.99 domain promo ended? I tried to buy a domain name at namesilo today and I am seeing $8.99 why?

Yeah, sorry, the promo ended yesterday :(

We will likely have some more com/net registration promos early in 2018.

A registrar receives likely tenths of thousands of domain availability requests per day.

What makes that specific request (domain name) so special that it can be separated from the others and be registered before OP had a chance to do so ?

I find it is technically not feasible.

When a domain you want is available best thing to do is hand-reg it! Namesilo doesn't seem to front-running but there may be a leak that shows what domains are searched for to anyone watching.

Hello,

To be perfectly blunt, this accusation is an outright lie. We have never, would never and will never engage in front-running. We do not even log domain searches. We have been active on NamePros for quite some time, and I would venture to guess not even one other person has ever had this happen. We do not appreciate having our name tarnished with accusations such as this on a public forum. The OP cannot offer any proof as it is not possible to prove something that has not happened.
lol , of course you don't do it ..... godaddy doesn't do it , you don't do it , (name of registry) doesn't do it .....NOBODY DOES IT ? yet we all know it's going on , anybody remember the fan duel / draftkings scandal where employees had inside information & was winning contests & some of them walked away with hundreds of thousands of dollars before being busted ? . wether it's the registries holding back ( as in DOMAIN TASTING ) or an employee regging or the selling of domain searches or a leak somewhere that 's being seen in" real time " something is going on , their's alot of money involved when it comes to domains ....let's be honest , no matter how much the registries scream at the top of their lungs " WE DON'T FRONTRUN DOMAINS " while trying not to laugh we all have to wonder if their telling us the truth . & can namesilo or any other registry tell us why when someone complains about a domain that they searched for is suddenly gone ...WHY IS IT ALWAYS regged at the registry where the individual looked the domain up at ? I KNOW ... I KNOW ...IT'S A COINCIDENCE , funny how it's never regged at some other registry . something for everyone to think about . i think namescost said it best "practice safe regging "

The thread starter never came back to update thread. Never mentioned the name so others can take a look.

@Eric Lyon - It appears that the user @marthak signed up to NamePros, made this one post, and then got banned. Could you let us know why this user got banned?

Any connection to @robert widener (OP)? Their writing style is exactly the same, with "...." instead of periods, spaces before and after different forms of punctuation "word ? " instead of "word? " and "word . " instead of "word. ", certain words in all caps to provide emphasis, no capital letter when starting new sentences, "&" instead of "and", and so on. And of course, there is the fact that they opened this NP account just to emotionally defend OP's frontrunning accusation (an assertion that OP has yet to provide any evidence to support).

Because @marthak and @robert widener's writing is exactly the same, I suspect @marthak is a shilling account opened by @robert widener to support his own accusation against NameSilo. I assume that is why his second account was banned. Can you please confirm or deny this @Eric Lyon?

In certain hot niches people are registering names every single day. Every thought you’ve had someone very often beat you to it. (Hello Coin & Crypto Names) It’s not particularly odd for a name you saw open yesterday to be gone today.

Op opened this thread to do a smear campaign on @namesilo that is obvious. I hope this thread gets taken down as he has not even come back to provide proof of his accusation.

I have typed many things at NS with no such issues but I generally don’t check unless I am ready to buy.

i never did hear back from namesilo president michael goldfarb & doesn't marthak bring up an interesting point about when a domain in question being suddenly gone "why is it always regged at the registrar where person looked up domain name at & never some other registry " the registrars like to tell us it's always a coincidence but nobody else finds it .... oh i dont know ....ODD. has anyone else noticed that namesilo or any other registrar reps are so EERILY QUIET & have avoided this remark like the plague

many people have brought up an intersting point .... " what is the name ? " ..... has anyone else noticed that robert widener & marthak (he & himself) are so EERILY QUIET & have avoided this question like the plague ? i don't now what there is to hide ? .....ODD.

not giving out name , i think it's pretty clear genius ? , hoping name becomes available again . last thing i need is a million other domainers checking / looking for name to become available . something to hide ? .... something odd going on ? ...NO to both questions , just smart that's all .

lol , maybe you can ask her .

Since you and her have the exact same unique quirks in your writing style, I'm guessing she doesn't exist.

Putting an empty space before punctuation marks , SPORADICALLY CAPITALIZING words and phrases..

If you're going to slander a company, at least pick one that doesn't do everything right.
