Regging available domains with no Thank You

[binaryman]

I notice that when one posts available domains for registration that often people go ahead and register some of them without even bothering to say thank you. For instance 2 days ago I posted a list of available Poker .coms and 2 of them were regged yesterday and no word of thanks. This person regged PokerSupporters.com and PokerDevotees.com

Here are the details of the registrant:

Yes, it's annoying. Especially when you might have been thinking of regging them yourself. I try and remember to thank people or send NP's if I reg one.

Moved to : NamePros Info & Suggestions

In cases where more than one are registered by the same person - It is pretty obvious. But you have to be careful , You are definitely not the only one in the world to think of these same domains at one time or another

This is Definitely a problem with Members with NO ethics or conscience .... No Doubt about it - I've run into this several times and it keeps me from posting for the most part now In the past - I caught a former member Giving my list to a client and about 10 related domains were registered off my list with the other member taking credit - I contacted the person who registered them and made it Very clear too

Folks - If you are this type of Slimeball - We don't need you here - End of Story ...

It is annoying and definitely one of the worst parts about this forum. Also primarily the reason why I don't give away lists of free regs.

Here's a thread for you binaryman http://www.namepros.com/warnings-and-alerts/104451-having-fun-with-a-scammer.html

It is possible he forgot or just couldn't find the thread.
If not, then he can join all the other reggers who don't thank. They should all hang their heads in shame. A simple thanks is the least you can give.

sorry folks - I'm not as vitriolic as you on this one

if I post an available name or do an appraisal its my choice - when I get NP$, rep added or a thankyou in return its a pleasant surprise - not an expectation

Here's a thread for you binaryman http://www.namepros.com/warnings-and-alerts/104451-having-fun-with-a-scammer.html

In addition to what I said earlier, I've found out why he hasn't thanked you.

alizarki is a banned member.
You can't see the available lists forum if you're not a member so he must be here with another name. He can't post thank you because then everyone would know he joined up again.
Any mods want to do some detective work and figure out who alizarki is now?

I had added a bunch of names yesterday as well
http://www.namepros.com/available-d...to-available-names-list-18-a.html#post1310427
as you can see, someone went to town on the .gs - lots of one word where only that ext was available. I'm glad they are useful that is why I put them there, If I could afford to reg them all, believe me I wouldn't be posting them. But I can't so I share my finds...
I'm glad people want to reg the finds I get, however, I think that even if no rep or np$ added, which I never asked for in this thread, but I think it a courtesy to let the poster know that they are gone. So other members can see it without having to go look. I have learned from many threads that I have posted that not all will tell, however, pm me and let me know, I mean it's available to you, but there are other people interested as well, be fair!

I also posted a list yesterday and I recieved no thank yous. I noticed the name was regg'ed when a fellow NP member was offering it for sale..

Oh, that is not cool. Shame upon them. Are you naming names?

Good theory. Let's see if we can figure this out.

and interestingly enough, every one that I searched for is gone - yet I never posted them all - so proof positive that somehow my .gs searches ended up on someone elses computer...how??? the whois shows no info (with several registrars) except an email address with a .tc ext (with whois in my sig)
so I would like to know how the person at that email address can get ahold of all the .gs names that I searched for?? and don't tell me it's a cowinkie dink
because even a random letter search like this one
fhfudjeiot .gs
only the .gs is gone - so i don't know how this can happen - but only the tld I am looking for is gone...come on - not a cowinkie dink

someone knows how to do this - and I have an email address that doesn't come up on anything except the whois in my sig - why is that?

and how do I get them out of my computer???
if there is a way in - there is a way OUT!

 

[B33R]

Where do you search for .gs mis_chiff? Do you use a different whois than normal?

It could be the whois site is logging searches. Although if you search for .gs and .com at the same place and .gs are the only ones disappearing then that would be very odd. A corrupt registry?

Feel free to PM me a couple of the taken .gs domain names and I'll see if I can dig up anything else.

 

[mis_chiff]

the whois I got the email address from is the one in my sig - all other whois shows nothing except it's gone - it is actually related to a .tc website as well - when it happened before it said domibot - this one gave me an email address - with a website attached to it if you click on above post you will see the list I posted with all the .gs gone - which is fine - that's what their there for - but it pisses me off to no end that now everytime I search this so and so seems to honed in on them and they are all coming up taken - when their probably not ! he's just waiting to see what happens I guess, but the fact he's on my computer (at least that's what it feels like) annoys me!

This happens all the time, once over 100 names were registered from one of my lists and no thank yous or donations.

This could not be monitored as it can sometime be a person who found the name himself or another person.

This has happened to all of us .. but I feel a bit less sympathy for binaryman than for most other victims.

As he now knows, it is not cool to post a list of unregistered domains in a "Domains Wanted" thread, which is what he did on another forum; some of those domains were the ones that got reg'd without a thank you.

To his credit, he apologized when I pointed out how uncool this was, in the eyes of people who are trying to SELL domains.

My view is when you post available domains you really have to expect this kind of behavior and not dwell on it..
