.place - Fail?

[RU]

I was thinking to buy some .place domains
Only 790 domains have been registered
ntldstats.com/tld/place
Your opinions please!

Not even Keyword+Place.com domain names would even be that desirable undeveloped. CarPlace.com, CreditCardPlace.com, it sounds dumb. Only domain worth regging on the whole gTLD, maybe fun.place ...even that is eh.

Took you long enough to look it up. Lol. Keep buying those new gTLDs with zero relevance and trademarked domains. So far so good.

Agree 100%

Childrens.place is taken... its a popular chain here on the East Coast. Not worth the battle IMO. Though I haven't read up much on how much weight is placed on extensions lately for "mark entirety".

The only ones that were of any value are all regged or held for a premium ransom.

Even so, my.place is confusing for anyone familiar with the majority use domain name structure assuming MyPlace.com

domainmarket.place a premium xxx

I was wondering about the technicalities of that and I'm waiting until we see the first big trademark case with these gTLDs....

Hypothetically if someone were to use Childrens.place and Children's Place is Trademarked, do they automatically have rights to the domain? It depends on how you look at it and present the case. If the new gTLDs whole (bs) purpose was to better "organize" the internet than .PLACE should be irrelevant to what is left of the dot, because these new gTLDs were supposedly made to better organize and categorize things right, one of the major selling points, like .COM is commercial, dot .NET is Network, .PLACE = places? Children is just a single keyword that can apply to anything on a 'category' on the internet that happens to be place, yet people are treating everything like hacks...

I see *big* legal issue in the near future...

Yeah most registries are reserving certain keywords for trademark issues but it's inevitable with the hundreds out there, that there are going to be hundreds, if not thousands of complaints on single keyword domains that "investors" are paying decent money for.

I wouldn't pay 10 bucks for it. (honestly)

It is important to understand that TMs do not all have the same weight, the same scope and the same (geographical) reach.

As for Childrens.place, you need (at a minimum) to make sure you won't use the domain to sell children clothing and you may be fine, depending on usage. But since The Children's Place is a more less famous TM internationally, not just in the USA, I wouldn't recommend registering that domain. The confusion and litigation risk is too strong. Good domains should not pose potential TM issues. When in doubt, stay away.

I think this thread is very sad, not only are the names on display worthless, some of them are legal liabilities. People are literally paying for a chance to be dragged in a UDRP or court.

I would. It is a nice domain hack.

terrible extension....absolutely terrible!

 

[gina ferrano]

I have one three word .com with place as the last word in a targeted niche with an eye on development. And me personally, I'd rather have the .com three word bought with a GD coupon @ $2.17 than the two word .place version.

The generic Top-Level Domain (gTLD) suffix “.name” is to be disregarded under the confusing similarity test, as it is a technical requirement of registration.

Who really knows though with the above, every case is different.

 

[dnrevolution]

was free and I reg him!
TOYS.PLACE

So, your domain is a "him" eh?.. I thought all domains were feminine? lol

 

[dnrevolution]

I'm not surprised you don't know what 'drop' or drop catching' is. Your newbs are showing again.

I used a lot of big words there. Take your time to digest.

Goodnight.

My god, you are so silly.

When you get out of your depth, nitwits like you, who've been on this forum for a while, instantly attempt to talk down to anyone who've recently joined and call them a "newbie", as a kind of insult.

Trying to make fun of mad409, with the childish little picture you made. But actually, it is very clear, to anyone reading this thread, that he is much more aware than you are... so why not creep back to your hole?

 

[dnrevolution]

^^^ This is what domain idiots do when they feel threatened (and they feel like this quite often!).

 

[DomainVP]

Clearly, mad409 is much more aware than you are... so why not creep back to your hole?

The dumb leading the stupid. Nothing new to see here.

Actually anything Mad409 said was either so wrong or so obliviously common place knowledge that it warranted no reply.

You are a forum troll, who likes to pick fights; I get that.

You need to find your place in the world and here it is; Name Pros Forum Troll, leader of the newb patrol.

Congratulations.

Don't you have another gTLD thread you want to talk nonsense in?

Just to catch everybody up to speed, you are the gTLD advocate (gTLD Jesus) Who hasn't bought a single one, nor have you sold a single domain.

I think at this point you will find a pumpkin authoritative and more knowledgable than you sunshine

You may continue your tirade of nonsense again now.

don't know, hopefully not. Just regged hire.place a while ago...
