Why do you like/love NamePros?

[BH]

Hey guys,

wazzup? I hope all are doing great after the new year!

Okay let me ask this, we know that DP is far populated than NP (excuse me telling this). But I feel NP is much better than it. Yeah, we have a better Page rank too.. Of course i do have my own reasons to like NP more than any other forums.

Let me know why do you like NP so much.

Thanks. Have a great day!

Friendly, helpful and patient staff and mods. I think that the marketplace at NamePros is among the best run forum marketplaces on the net (of course I only have experiences with a few different niches). I also enjoy the layout (specifically the tabs), color scheme and the great mix of new and old-timer domainers alike. NP is also a perfect place to network and build a good reputation.

Apples and oranges with the example you gave, since NP is focused around domains and domaining and the other is more general.

NP also has good moderators and there's a nice balance of different levels and areas of expertise. At the other forum you mentioned (and I'll probably catch hell from someone for saying this - oh well, here goes) my personal opinion is that it's heavy on self-promotion but kind of light iwhen it comes to actual experience or knowledge. Here, if someone posts a pile of BS there's usually someone ready to call them out about it.

NamePros doesn't have (or not that many) scammers compared to DP
And np has friendly staff

NamePros is an invaluable resource

Excellent Npers who are willing to give guidance, advice and challengers.

Cheers

I can't see any basis for comparison. I wouldn't even insult the fine people at NP by trying. The other forum's version of scam control is like US airport security - the honest people are treated like riffraff and the bad guys laugh as they board with exploding underpants.

DP is overly rigid or their moderators are...NP is more broad-minded (not lenient) and doesn't ban people for making stupid little mistakes, that's the big difference.

I like NP because of it's like a big family or a bunch of friends. Friendly staff, great layout (I like the tabs and I'm missing them so badly) and it's free (I'd compare NP to DNF rather than DP). Everyone who has discovered domaining through NP, owes it something.

+1 (although I am a pay member at DNF)


oh ...and why'd we lose the TABS !!

@nicedomains: thank you. I don't mean DNF is worse (or better) than NP for business members (I don't have any basis to say that). What I want to say is that NP is certainly more suitable and friendly for starters. NP is a great resource for new domainers (and I still consider myself one of them even after 9 months since I discovered domaining).

I much prefer Namepros. Seems like it is more adult orientated. Dp has banned me for a week for posting in the wrong thread. It was general chat. They jump on you for no reason. Sometimes I think the mods do not like hosting or registry competition. Some of the posters are down right rude. There is no comparrision between Namepros and DP. I hope all the scammers stay over there.

 

[dgridley]

NamePros was my first real forum experience of any kind.. I don't come here as often any more because I have other priorities but will always have a "soft spot" for NP!

That euro cutie... Mellowmasher.... is pretty fine from what I hear.

Oh and the moderator perks are good too. I get a free corporate Lamborghini. I know a lot of you are going to think this is pretty far fetched, so I've included a photo of my car below.

DP is far populated than NP

DP is also an idiot magnet, so the extra posts don't mean much.

I´m a registered member at a lot of domain forums but the only one I really like is namepros. The staff is friendly and always helpful.I have read and learned a lot here about domaining and sometimes we have really fun in the chat.I ´m also a great fan of namepros auctions and hope they will continue on a monthly basis with auction.

 

[Domainst]

I like that there are alot of people that use NP

You forgot to mention that DP is a forum full of thieves ran by a thief. Oh, not to mention that owner, Shawn Hogan, also sells a software for ISPs called "OptiGold" which offers free tech support for life. The only problem is that this tech support is nothing more than a sub forum on DP and the only support you will get is essentially from others that have been defrauded.

i like it because there is a huge amount of useful information to learn from. if you read it, and understand it, then it helps you become so much better. i have barely started the learning process!

 

[andr69]

I like these forums because they are really multifarious and not at all boring! I can always find there information which I need and which corresponds to my today's mood I can also receive frank and reliable advice here - and that's great!
