.mobi section - DNForum - Domain Sales, Domain Forum, Domain Appraisals, Domain Registrars

**GT Web** · 10-04-2006, 02:59 PM

I am sick and tired of dozens of threads titled "Look at my great .mobi domains!" and "Great News for .mobi" and "Where did you backorder your 500 .mobi names".

This extension, in the vast majority of cases, is a joke. I'd really like it to have its own forum, so I never have to see threads on the subject again, if I don't want to.

Pretty please with sugar and a cherry on top...

Although his post comes off as pretty, well not nice, I have to agree with GT. I too am getting sick of seeing everyother thread on here about .mobi.

My opinion on the suffix aside, it's becoming a real eyesore.

There does seem to be some serious overdosing on promoting 'm' names at the moment. That said I am interested to know the results of the Pool auctions. However I think we are maxed out on the 'for and 'against' arguments.

now be nice GT.. peace love harmony and that sort of thing

You guys are wasting your money. If I came out with a .COOL extension you would probably line up to spend $60 each on them as well.

I agree with the new section.. .mobi will rise becaue it has an edge on other domains it will be used alot for the phones and everyone has a phone...

Don't start PLEASE.

I don't think we really need a .mobi section. The .mobi people will calm down again once the first sales have been completed. We can still add a new section if .mobi is still hot in six months or so.

Hi

i agree with Gt, as to the frequent posting of "my mobi" names, especially in the Gold lounge section, where it is obvious promotion of one's domain.

Perhaps we can do something about that, by putting those posts in "appraisal" section where they really belong.

i also agree with dodo1, in that it doesn't need it's own section just yet.

i too think the posting will decrease once all of the "newness" wears off.
hopefully soon!

**tekz999** · 10-04-2006, 04:03 PM

yes, a .mobi section will be great.

**Domain Jedi** · 10-04-2006, 04:06 PM

My vote is for a .mobi section!

**POLiSH** · 10-04-2006, 04:08 PM

Don't we always go through this sort of talk with every new ext.

**DotComGod** · 10-04-2006, 04:10 PM

ok, we will add one, GD is on it.

Hey GT, this is a domain name forum, in case you didn't know. People aren't boasting about their cell phones.

**GT Web** · 10-04-2006, 06:02 PM

wow, my suggestion was actually followed

Of course its a domain name forum...I was posting my displeasure about these horrible domain names.

People shouldn't be afraid to speak their mind...

People also shouldn't be afraid of saying nothing.

For someone who is so against the extension and the .mobi threads, you sure have posted and frequented a lot of them.

Don't like all the domain name discussions, simply don't click the link.

**GiantDomains** · 10-04-2006, 06:54 PM

Ditto that. I don't like them and didn't register any but I'm not stalking the buyers with my 2 cents.

But stalking is enjoyable

...and it would be a pretty boring community if people who didn't agree didn't speak up.

I'm sure many members will be able to throw it back in my face when dozens of .mobi's are being sold for thousands of dollars each and every day.

**GiantDomains** · 10-04-2006, 07:25 PM

Hehe.. I knew you'd respond
