Someone is letting go so Fluor Corporation have a turn.
An obvious 'typo' for flour, Fluor is a major industrial company.
I didnt read the others but this one is slightly disturbing. They proved bad faith despite this site being "forwarded in error" to flour.com for 6 or 7 years. And then they claim they owner has a competitive business...highly doubt that...pointing to his competitive services may not have been the brightest move but this one smells.
This one is a 'slam dunk' in that it ticked all of the relevant boxes.
However, this filing really came about because the Melbourne IT people were clearly incompetent in how the registrant was approached. This entire matter could have been settled directly without resorting to an expensive challenge.
The engadget file however, is amazing in how badly it was handled!
How is it a slam dunk that this guy and his small engineering company is a competitor to a multi billion dollar international company ? If its about ticking boxes, we dont need a panel, hire 3 chimps.
It is very simple: they consider the scope, not the scale, of competition.Originally Posted by Wzhxvy
Both companies were in the engineering sector. If the registrant was selling flour - yes, there is someone doing that online - then he would not have been a competitor. That fact that his firm might be smaller - or larger - played no role as soon as the fact was established that both are in the same field.
The positive aspect here is that this element was not decided on the basis of merely competing for the attention of web users, which an over-arching approach propagated by intellectually dishonest proponents, sometimes as panel members, of preventing domain parking or the potential development of alternative uses for domains other than by their own clients.
