about 2-3yrs ago, I let all my 4llll.coms dropped (of course before the hike in llll.com). About 20+ names.

I moved most of my domains out of GD, but lately with all the BS I am experiencing from other registrars I am thinking of going back.

I guess they don't look as bad now as they did compared to other registrars.

Besides, most end users are familiar with them and feel comfortable doing transfers or opening new accounts with them.

This is a big plus.

Me too
But i don,t understand GD

Registered ovargo.com for a side project a couple years back. When it fell through I sold it on flippa for dirt cheap. I've had sellers remorse ever since. It still remains undeveloped(doesn't even resolve) and it just keeps getting renewed every year. I know it's petty, but still...

Buying domains and waiting for an end user to come along to offer me 500x the price I paid for the domain.

What have you changed now?
