    Rules for Domain Sales threads?

    I was wondering if there are any Rules enforced in Domain Sales anymore...

    I have been seeing more and more rules being completely ignored, such as:

    1. Not including domain in thread title

    2. People making off-topic or irrelevant comments in sales threads.

    etc...


    Constructive feedback appreciated

    Yes, they are being enforced as much as possible.

    Please report any infractions by hitting the "R" button in any post that violates forum guidelines.

    it's an over-used term, in my opinion, and most often "inapplicable" to the domain being advertised.

    however, while some members are using the adjective hoping to make a sale, the experienced domainers just laugh to themselves as they scroll thru the lineup!

    but every now and then.... a true "premium" name will pop up and more than likely, it won't have the word "premium" in the title!.

    Some people will call any domain premium. You're definition is different than someone elses. Also apparantly some people wouldn't consider any .net, .org domains Premium

    Unless you have a valid point to make, it would be common courtesy not to post comments in a sales thread.

    thanx

    Get real. With a week full of six and seven figure sales happening, $25 domains are not premium in anyone's eyes regardless of which crappy extension you attach. This industry should be past this kind of delusional hyperbole, especially as VC guys enter the picture. That's just my two cents and I've learned that arguing with new members here is pointless. Biggedon summed it up well. Peace

    Maybe send this in an email to Premiumdomains.com etc... if you feel so strongly about this. lol

    Also, what do you mean by "crappy extensions"?

    Dare I say it? Non-dom coms. The sooner you figure that out, the more money you will make....so you can buy some truly PREMIUM DOT COMS.

    Now I see the reason for this thread.

    As I looked back thru some of your recent sales threads, I noticed the term "premium" attached to a couple of them.

    Since you invoked the name of that service/site, I am assuming that's what made you think your names were premium?

    Also, I'm assuming that you have issue with a member because he asked "were the premium names already sold?", in your thread?

    In that instance, imo as a member, I think it was a little sarcastic, but a fair question. Since you are putting "premium" in the title to describe the content of your thread.
    If you felt if was inappropriate, again... you should report it.

    I posted this thread because I felt a lack of response from the forum mods. I was also annoyed at some threads not including the domain in the title. I remember it being in the rules that you should include the domain in the thread title.

    IMO unconstructive comments should not be allowed, in this case I believe it was to make an insulting comment in my sales thread. But I believe the issue is resolved... Also, I don't use Premiumdomains.com.
