    Thats funny. I thought the same thing.

    I learned along time ago, do not discuss politics and religion in a business atmosphere. It is a no win situation.

    There are thousands of other forums and blogs that welcome those discussions.

    That has happened to some of mine I posted for sale on the forum, although I don't know how much they went for (how do you find that out?) But I kind of understand in my case, because I'm such a newbie that probably no one bothered to check out my lists.

I also see BuyDomains ended up getting many of my cancelled names. Really odd the marginal names do not usually sell at forums and for sale listings at auctioin sites for a fraction of the price domain sellers would have accepted. Anyone know why?

    I've noticed the same with my drops. I think it would be naive to assume BuyDomains is not getting a significant discount on their purchases.

    Of course you want it shut down, Why would you want a section where criticism is increasingly being posted of a President you strongly support?

    Yeah, Let's close it down and bring it back when a Republican occupies the White House right? Then we can return to the good ole days of bashing conservatives.

    If this were a Republican President and we created a thread to delete or place restrictions on that section, ALL you Libs and Dems would be crying foul, claiming Republicans are trying to take your rights away.

    If you voted for our current President in 2008 to prove you weren't a racist,
    please vote for someone else in 2012 to prove you're not an idiot. Thank you

    Without that one particular section, she has no purpose of being alive.

    She thinks its just about a president. It is not.

    It is about posting a story of Dell closing a plant in my town, 900 people being put out of work, jobs going to mexico and Indonesia, and her and another moron calling me a liar and accusing me of making all of this up. Even when I posted the story and news clips from the local news, she still called me a liar.

    http://www.dnforum.com/f31/f-cked-de...ad-389907.html

    Because I had enough statements (in writing) made by these people, with no obvious retraction, I had the thread closed.

    When I started another thread (part deux) because there was a very good discussion going on regarding unemployment, taking of taxpayer money in the form of incentives, outsourcing, etc, she reported me as having posted a thread in an inappropriate place and had that thread closed. I contacted the Admin and had the thread reopened.

    I could care less about what she and others think of me. I am not here for a popularity contest or to see how many friends I can get, or side with, or form alliances with. Sorry to say it is obvious that some people are doing exactly that and have no other place to go or actual friends.

    But that was a classic example of posting a news piece and someone entering a thread to attack the person while totally disregarding what the thread was about.

    She and everyone else has a right to say what ever they want. Until that line is crossed of defamation, libel, and slander. Eh, she's not the only one. There was another prick in that particular thread who levied the same charges against me and claimed to have reported me to Dell's legal team for making a false statement, lying, and so on. Again, even when links were posted of actual news footage and a Dell spokesperson on camera making those some exact statements I was called a liar and "making sh*t up".

    I'm too busy in life with more important things in life to deal with a couple of morons.

    So the issue is, if this type of behavior is allowed to prevail and if there is a particular spot where this behavior is done, then it only stands to reason to shut it down.

    Once more, the mods or administrator should not have to be bothered with or have to spend time monitoring discussions and behavior of matters unrelated to domaining on a domaining forum.

    Apparently weed is being legalized for medical purposes, so maybe you all should get a dose and mellow out.

    I am already mellow. Once again, wtf does that have to do with anything?

    I am quite mellow. Laughing, actually, at your objection to my post.

    The short answer to this is very simple...

    A large majority of major buyers from drops have too much money and not enough brains. These are " pioneers " and men we look up to. They have almost no real sense of value and rather over pay on drops then spend time and search the forums. Sure they have incredible generic portfolios, keep in mind they had some foresight to get in early and CHEAP! Now they grossly over pay daily to pad portfolios and do something, otherwise they have nothing to do or contribute. When is the last time they hunted for names, picked up a phone or spent hours on the forums? Ever offer a premium name to these " pioneers ", don't bother, they are worse than a pawn business and while it is one thing to be cheap and low ball, I am starting to think they still believe they are in 1996 but that quickly is erased when you offer to buy their name(s) lol its 2025!

    Their price for ignorance is $$$$$$$, let them have it.

    It reminds me of the antiques trade. An item will sit and not sell but at auction, suddenly it is a gem because 1, 2, 3, 10, 15 people are suddenly bidding on it. If so-and-so is on it then it must be great.

    And if an item has a provenance of someone notable, god forbid...the sky is the limit.

    This recently happened when I approached someone notable for an LLL.(cctld) that was quite non-descript, was not even a high powered premium - ... the response I got was "our LLL.(cctld) start at one thousand dollars".

    Anywhere else this would be available for a hundred or less.

    I guess it was all provenance - who had owned or who currently owned it.

    ok, I have followed this string until in ran off topic.

    Is the consensus that trhe political section should go and that the mod team should moderate more strictly?

    My opinions may not be a true reflection of my mental capacity, the current Rick Latona banner is still scrolling and causing nausia.

    Honestly, if you just revoke Raider's membership, you could probably keep the political forum without much objection. She really is that irritating to the vast number of people here.

    But if you have to ditch politics, and she's stops posting, I'd be thrilled, personally.

    this is Laughable Thread, some people get mad of being the thread closed, some just make threads out of nothing, some just do the mod work when they should not be bothered at first place themselves, its just crazy

    I laugh at each comment I read, that how you guys are frustrated on these things, come on, we have better things to do and to be frustrated on hahaha.........but this is entertaining for me...

    keep up guys.
