.tv .TV Back In 'The Box' at GoDaddy!

[eyedomainous]

It looks like the forced exile of .TV from the main "More Domain Options" box at Godaddy has ended!

Way to go BOB!!

Perhaps this is an omen for a coming price reduction or sale?

Welcome back Bob - we've missed you.

And let's not forget that as far as renewals go for the ordinary TV lover - Godaddy still hit the mark with the discount code.

YO, I'm givin' Bob his props for this...
No Heckling here, guys and gals...this is straight up decent...and he always let us renew at discount when we knew the code.

Thanks, Bob...and help us some more as you may know more than we do about what's coming down!

Godaddy has one great thing - TDNAM with expired .tv's there, so I love Godaddy

I guess I should be the first to say that I have let my emotions get in the way of business, so I am not willing to cast the first stone.

I may have criticized people here(Rick Latona comes to mind) but sometimes I have to step back and get back to business. That's what Bob Parsons does, too, so it's good enough for me as well.

So my previous post remains unaltered, regardless of what "video" he made. History is dead and if you learn from it fine, if you continue to carry the cross it will just slow you down in the end.

Excelsior!

Keep in mind the negativity toward the extension kept most of the domaining community away which created some nice opportunities for those of us who were not swayed by popular opinion. I got my hands on Templates.tv, ModelAgency.tv, RealEstateAgent.tv and others in Namejet auctions at very modest prices. Were those names to appear on the list of Namejet domains with backorders now, it is likely I would be outbid.

 

[snoop]

far as i'm concerned he can get in a box and stay there. i'm not giving him any credit or props till i hear an apology for his ding-dong-daddy award video.

Apologise to who, Verisign? the extension itself? The people of Tuvalu? .tv speculators who are overly emotional about their names?

verisign shouldnt even let godaddy sell .tv names.

They'd be silly cut off their biggest customer.

It was simply pricing that kept people away. Maybe that kept Bob away aswell.

he said that the dumbest domain in the world was .tv so of course it goes that the dumbest domainers were those buying .tv, despite the fact that a day before he was promoting .tv as the name for video online!

Are you saying the above was not true? (until the recent Verisign changes). Personally I can't think of an extension where people did worse than in .tv.

I think we need to separate what is offensive but actually an accurate statement versus offensive but incorrect. Bob's statement were offensive but I don't believe they were wrong. The worst part is he sold people lousy names and admitted it. Somehow it would be less offensive if he didn't state that, but there is a degree of brutal honesty in it.

I guess since Bob got married he is a changed man. I do have a problem with Dana Patrick though, I don't get what all the hype is about.

The .ME and (R.I.P. :ghost: ) .MOBI are still ahead in the drop-down priority over the ".TV" (and it's not just a simple matter of being alphabetical, as the lowly .WS is also ahead of the .TV)), IMHO. :red:

Good Luck,
Jeff

haha,
I was just gonna thank you for the :honorable mention" then you go ahead and write this observation...arghhh! Only you...Jeff! LOL

Ok, well I see this as some incredible News, as small a move as it may seem to be, It actually is huge because of GoDaddys previous stance against .TV. and thank you Eye, for your observant "EYE" (haha) for sharing it with us. It actually moved me so much that I had to write a lengthy Post on Thanking GoDaddy, plus asking them to do just a little more for .TV. If you get a chance, check it out...Tv Is Making A Comeback At Godaddy

Thanks,
Vito.

You guys are reminding me of the speed dial episode of Seinfeld......who cares what Bobby thinks or what order it's in.:imho:

The only thing that matters is how much you, that is right, YOU, can get for YOUR .tv domains. Prospective buyers are not running to Bobby's website to see where the .tv falls in the "Domain Lineup", prior to making an offer.

If I was an advertiser on television and the .com was taken, what domain name do I want? .TV of course! WHY? Because the average person who knows nothing about domains (Hense my wife), will remember .tv before .net, maybe .org, and definitely every other ext. on the planet because they are watching tv and they will be able to CONNECT the two together.

Enjoy

...the term "water under the bridge" has to come into play at some point in time here.

Parsons doesn't owe me an apology, he owes it to himself to see that the extension has taken a spike in interest and if he wants to profit from it he is going about it the right way.

And if he has his crazy sales like he did a few years back when for a short time he priced the .tv's at 9.99 I will go apesh*t, I swear before the entire League of the United Nations! Even 19.99 will make me happy!

At any rate, he is adjusting to the positive climate as should we all.

Once again, kudos and props to Bob and his godaddy bunch!

PS
I don't care what Snoop said, that's just his opinion, after all, and I have mine. It's all good!
