I once mistakely regged a domain product name , and did not know there was product out there, i was going to launch a company of my own.
But luckily i was contacted by the company in a week, after i reg the name, and without any hesitations, or any money, I told them, I will move the ownership to them
Its not good to be listed as "cybersquatter" or asking for my registration fee which is only 8 dollars lol
That was prior to start domaining, and thats how after tht incident, I got in to domaining, when I started researching about legal notice of domain ownership request change.
I now am starting registering Trademarks because they (a) "only" cost $250 or so each (b) give 5 years protection without any prior use .It remains to be seen how the business will go. I am of course using all the trademarked domains for the proper trademark use, dissemination adverts for other companies (PPC) .

I had a domain for a sports team and the parent organization sent me a C&D and asked I transfer the domain to them. I did (wasn't worth fighting - even though I had it pointed to a rival's site (same organization, though).Originally Posted by nicedomains
Tell them what you told us, be honest. Say you didn't want to release it for a cybersquatter to get. See if you can arrange a trade to compensate you for the cost of maintaining the domain for several years... Maybe some season tix or a signed stick...
I asked them for two fan packs (one for the rival which I'm a fan of and one for my local team), they didn't even respond. :( A F-ING FAN PACK!!

What a bunch of jerks... Can afford to go through with the C&D/WIPO process but can't afford s/h and two 99 cent posters for your troubles.
You should have seen that coming though.
No WIPO and I'm sure the person who wrote their C&D was on their normal payroll (FT employee) but still. Considering what this sport has been though over the past 20 years (and it is one of the top 4 professional sports in the USA) I shouldn't have been surprised.What a bunch of jerks... Can afford to go through with the C&D/WIPO process but can't afford s/h and two 99 cent posters for your troubles.

And the fan packs were usually a letter, a couple of pictures, and maybe some other small (worthless other than nostalgia) items.

Cybersquatter must be rich by now with all the savings from renewal fees.
Nobody in their right mind would recognize something as generic as that to be a trademark.
And am I the only one who thinks of Kobe, Japan at the mention of the word "Kobe"?

Sure, if you stick up an anti-tourism page, but I doubt that's what the webmaster had in mind for that address.Nobody in their right mind would recognize something as generic as that to be a trademark.
