Michael Jackson domain name what the &#@^ is wrong with these people!?

[john_karr]

Hello I'm watching CNN live, LA times confirm MJ is Dead CNN has not confirm it yet. So I go to check to see if any of these cybersnakes idiots register MJ domain name and I can not believe it MichaelJacksondied.com and Michaeljacksondies.com is registered. What the hell is wrong with these people this just PISS me off these people are not Human. Some people do anything to make a dollar! SICK!

Good thought.

Wonder if somebody regged whateverhappenedtonorthkorea.com, or started a website with a grand prize to pick the day Israel makes Iran disappear (check tomorrow's wind reports)...

Kinda' like what happens when a grown man "innocently" sleeps with little boys numerous times (see above paragraph for answer).

Thanks L2 for also understanding how incredibly small and trivial this is lol

Yes people forget real news fast and worry about stupid tv/music news instead. Entertainment section on reuters probably gets more traffic than the other sections, sheep.

 

[mjnels]

so i guess the news networks running CONSTANT coverage is any different?

its not. everytime some tragedy happens someone starts one of these threads and happens to know the exact domain names taken.. heh

 

[steveteva]

Unbelievable, many many mj domains (over 100+) redirect to : Home Health Care Yucca Valley
Don't know who's behind maybe a fan maybe family....

Me? Personally, I don't touch tragedy domains - I believe the damage created by a few tragedy domainers hurts the whole industry terribly. Tragedy domaining cannot be justified or compared in any way to the rest of domaining IMO.

The tragedy journalists/news chase and write up the tragedy domainer to try to justify their being. Now that's hypocrisy at it's worst. There’s also no chance at recovery for the industry from it either because "if it looks like sh**...., and it smells like sh**, then it most probably is sh**" mentality of the masses.

I agree with you totally even the last sentence makes no sense to me(never mind, it is late lol)

But i call for a cyber squatter police or sort of, initiated by us fellow domainers...it is getting out of hand, don't you all agree?

And we need a domain name lawyer in our team...i am just so sick of this idiots, lowlifes, i hope you all get struck by lighting when you take a s@#$.....

Cheers

"getting out of hand" ?

This is a little different in that Jacko is the second biggest musician of them all (second to Elvis). That can be debated but surely most ppl will agree. This news will likely never go away although MichaelJacksonIsDead.com is still worthless. Does anyone see value in SaddamIsDead.com? Dunno about the rest of you but I kinda knew he was executed years ago.

eBay quickly reflects sensational current events so no surprise it is flooded with Michael Jackson domain names. You'll see the same names next year on drop lists, after the George Bush shoe and Hudson River hero drops. The only parties certain to gain from these auctions are the domain registries & registrars and eBay if the sellers exceed their free listing fee limit. Final value sales fees are extremely unlikely. The economy may be running on fumes but it's good to know that these dull speculators are still able to flush wads of cash down the toilet.

Hey Nudu, I spent last weekend under your avatar!

Back on topic....

The defense seems to be:

"If I don't do it somebody else will. And anyway, big companies are equally crooked...and who are you to have any moral values at all? You probably cheat on your wife!....hey, who stole my car?"

Did I miss anything?

 

[gemstar]

I see around 65 names on Ebay now along with this one
michael-jackson-has-died.com

Something's really wrong there, from the website....

Our Values

Charity – Angels Embrace has teamed up with HEAL THE WORLD FOUNDATION, a Universal Charity devoted to high priority global problems, such as hunger, homelessness, elderly abuse and Care and the digressing moral compass of humanity.

Did I mention it says you can get a FREE Assessment?

uh boy...

L2

Whats that you say? The very foundation Michael himself started teamed up with the people regging the names to drive traffic to THEIR SITE TO MAKE THEIR CHARITY MORE MONEY? Free assessment but please donate to our charity for our services. Thats right his own charity is profiting off his death....wake up people.

Hey guys,

great news.

Nobody has regged MichaelJacksonMayBeAKiddyFiddler.com yet!!!!!!!!!!!

or YourKidsAreSafeNowHesDead.com

Anyone ever think the other names were regged for a GOOD reason?

Wheres the PR teams on this one?

 

[-REECE-]

The problem is so many people have no ethics nowadays...

Ethics scale imho:

white hat webmasters -> domainers -> average SEOs -> cybersquatters -> affiliate marketers and the baddest black hats (some of whose behavior certainly is criminal) -> pharmaceutical/poker/gambling affiliates and guys who think regging names like MJIsDead.com is domaining.

By the way, I have yet to see the news media stoop to the level of regging "celebrity is dead", "earthquake in china", tsunami, hurricane, plane crash, school shooting, etc.

One word comes to mind: PATHETIC.

RememberingMJ.com - another one of the hundred+ (i'm sure) MJ related domains grabbed today...

 

[Blitz]

Poor Britney and Patrick. Not even gone yet and someone has registered InMemoryOfMichaelJackson.com along with InMemoryOfPatrickSwayze.com and InMemoryOfBritneySpears.com and put them for sale on eBay.

the news media doesnt have to.. they run an ad supported model just like the people who registered those domains do. i see no difference..

 

[danBoT]

the news has headlines saying "five dead" and "celebrity is dead" so its the same thing using a headline to sell as using a domain which i s kinda like a headline to sell

michaeljosephjackson1958-2009.com

[mjnels]
