Acroplex, what response did you get from sedo?! I hope such a matter of high importance and urgency wouldn't be met with silence from sedo like we have seen here before!!

[Acro]

This is fresh so I haven't gotten any response.

hopefully sedo is handling this issue better than Namedrive ,who never even responded after i told them about a stolen domain parked at namedrive !!

[Acro]

So far we don't know on whose account at sedo the domain resides, let alone if the domain is in the process of being returned. It's clear that the current holder of Social.com, montel, is aware that the domain is not his - because he has allegedly reclaimed his money. It's up to sedo's professionalism to block this domain from its current parking service.

[domainah]

my guess is, if anything they will approve it for auction soon...

[Acro]

LOL good one.

Nothing so far, 8 hours - a full workday - later.

Why does the link not work, saying lack of permission?

Why does the link not work, saying lack of permission?

cause after the hack this thread seems to be removed and legal area removed from index page too.

[ColdGin]

Maybe it has something related to that and if Adam took it out, so it will be not ´healthy´ to bring it back.

Would very muchy know what happens.

What an Outrage!

It's only visible if you upgrade your membership to "black" level (a hitherto secret membership level which provides privileges far beyond exclusive).

[Acro]

BTW sedo never once did they respond, nor did they remove the domain from their listings throughout the controversy!

In which ways was sedo contacted?

From personal Email? y/n
Phone? y/n
sedo's contact/Email form (on their site)? y/n
