.tv Music.tv picked up for $50!

[Ammudamus]

I'll be first to say congrats to Jimbo for picking up Music.tv (an ex FMA name) for $50! Rare that this will happen, but a true Verisign pricing glitch.

Enjoy!

Another positive, truthful post deleted. Any post which includes the truthful reminder that .tv stands for Tuvalu is not tolerated. This post may be left untouched to prove me wrong, but my previous post congratulating the buyer of music-dot-tuvalu was deleted. And indeed, it was a positive, congratulatory post.

Many here have blinders on, or don't want the truth to propagate, or both.

Do you have all your 947 posted messages, criticizing the .tv extension?
I hope you did better.

.tv stands for Tuvalu ? You learn something new every day.

HeyNow

I see you wrote the following:

"my previous post congratulating the buyer of music-dot-tuvalu was deleted"

as though this were some kind of rude act by the moderators instead of the obvious removal of trolling everyone else sees it for.


They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing and I feel you may be in the 007 category by now.

You continually suggest you are merely seeking 'facts' and 'truthful reminders'. Well, may I add a few constants I know to be true:

1. I am the owner of music.tv and I know exactly what it stands for - and I can categorically assure you that it is not music.tuvalu

2. The government of Tuvalu, headed by the monarch of my own country, Queen Elizabeth II, also know what .tv stands for. That is why they have a long-running deal with Verisign for it to be marketed to the world as the televisual extension.

3. I cannot make assumptions about other lands but I know that if you show .tv to almost everyone on the continent on which I live - they will always think 'television' and never 'tuvalu'. It is for that reason, and that reason alone, that so many major broadcasters and film producers in the world use .tv to show their work on the internet.

4. To congratulate someone is to actually wish them the best - not come along and try and piss on their cake and talk trash.


If you ever wish to travel to Tuvalu to find out the truth for yourself I would suggest you use the official Tuvalu government visitor website … a real life Tuvalu orientated website - oh, and a dot-com going by the name of http://www.timelesstuvalu.com - perhaps they don't know that they should be using .tv or even worse, that .com actually means .commercial


In the meantime I hope you don't get too upset if I see what you are doing as offensive and suggest that you take a good hard look at the obviously more important issues in your life than whether .tv means television, tuvalu or trolling.

To all the others here, my apologies.

I have spoken to Eric about this and warning points are going to start getting handed out until we reach 20 and then a ban.

Everyone here knows what .TV stands for, oh as an Fyi I spoke to someone from Major League Baseball in 2009, we discussed it being a country code and were they aware and they confirmed to me they were.

There is a stickied post here for new investors that states what .tv is. You have come to the wrong place to troll, you must be bored as you have been a member here for awhile. But I have been dealing with this nonsense since I created this sub forum and this forum started the conversation online about .tv.

So endless trolling comments in each post will result in warnings that lead to a ban, its out in the open so everyone here can read and no one can say no transparency, etc...

If you would like to start a post HeyNow why you don't like .tv go right ahead that's fine.

Regarding .TV as an extension, .TV does not make sense with just any keyword and selling domains in general can be difficult but I am seeing many companies using keywordkeyword.TV or keywordTV.com or keywordTV.cctld so there are end users. Today I had inquiries on four .TV domains to follow up on.

Everyone here knows what .TV stands for

Is that a fact? As if to say everyone knows what .co stands for...

Heynow has a valid point, although it's presented in a poor manner. Worth addressing as newbies are always lurking.

Yes Keith, and there is a stickied thread for newbies, trolling each thread will not be tolerated. Eric and the members here have made it quite clear as reported posts will be deleted and warning points issued, per Eric.

 

[bulkdomainz]

Congrats Jimbo!

Well it's my duty to say, Eric and "members" have it wrong. "Trolling" could very well be a learning technique. Assuming all members and browsers know what .tv stands for is ridiculous.

 

[equity78]

Not in every post and I will say trolling as a learning technique sounds ridiculous. If someone is a newbie and needs learning they should be reading the stickied thread first.

How do you propose someone get educated, without signing up to any certain forum? "Trolling" may be used in instances where it shouldn't be.

 

[equity78]

Keith what part of there is an educational post at the top of this forum are you not getting ? Stickied and does not go away so that someone new, knowing nothing about the extension can read up.

This is also not the reason for the member in question is posting. Let me ask you something Keith you have posted in this forum for years, why have you not been adding Tuvalu, in each post ?

Thirdly this was not being put out there for a vote, this was being stated as what is going to happen for that kind of behavior.

Lastly the member can start a thread about why he does not like .tv or whatever issue he has, he will not hijack other threads.

ANd you wonder why we think you are a low life troll ……just can't help your self it seems

On a brighter note www.soundcloud.com is the site i was thinking of, except music/tv would be a visual site instead ….all new music clips by original artists that can release one or two clips then they pay a fee for next submissions

seriously ?

 

[Keith]

seriously ?

You're wanting to draw a line between signing up and browsing. Either way, you crawl before you run. Making folks aware of an extensions true meaning, in this case, Tuvalu, is certainly worth noting.

 

[DnEbook]

Well if you wish to be considered a joke keep up your pointless justification for your reasoning, please be
serious when wasting our time and siding with the trolls, i guess you like the ignore list

You know better.

Nobody here considers me a joke. If they do, they're misguided.

You're making assumptions based on your experience, not considering someone with less knowledge. As stated, Heynow has a poor way of expressing his opinion. Poor expression doesn't equal fallacy.

 

[DnEbook]

Apologies to jimbo for spoiling a good news thread, enough from me

 

[The New Guy]

Heynow has a poor way of expressing his opinion. Poor expression doesn't equal fallacy.

But it does equal boorishness in his case.
