Re: Thread closed for no reason

If you're referring to the ASIA thread, of course it was closed. You were asking for an appraisal without a domain name.

Re: Thread closed for no reason

By the way, I did not report that thread, if that's what you're insinuating Biggedon is known to be quick resolving issues with posts that don't follow simple rules, e.g. not listing the actual domain name in sales or appraisals.

As for my comments being "irrelevant", I believe that since you didn't specify the domain I commented on the overall trend and hype behind .junk TLD's that seem to drive lemming domainers forward.

Re: Thread closed for no reason

Half of the threads in the Appraisal section and even SALES SECTION do not have domain in the title.

Hence the mention of "Double Standard"

thanx

Re: Thread closed for no reason

The problem is, your thread didn't have the exact domain name in the post either.

Yes, but the reason given for closing the thread was that the Domain wasn't listed in the title.

I do not want to get into a pointless argument. I was looking for comments regarding the value of a domain, maybe I should have posted in the Platinum Lounge.

Re: Thread closed for no reason

I agree. So your thread was closed, but for a reason. However, you seemed to get upset by my evaluation of your motive to register "Asia.xx".

You started this pointless argument.

The thread was closed because no domain was listed in the POST!

appraisal threads have not been closed, when no domain is in the title.

Your comment was about the .asia tld, which I do not feel was relevant to the domain being appraised. However, I am done arguing about this matter.

Re: Thread closed for no reason

Let's take a step back and pretend that thread was not closed, shall we?

You said you registered the keyword "Asia" in an Asian country domain, e.g. .ph for Philippines - speculating on the upcoming .asia launch.

Therefore, my appraisal questioned your motive of registering a keyword of an upcoming TLD in an obscure national TLD. I went on to explain that for the most part, all new exotic TLD's are ploys to harvest the high paying keywords (sex/flowers/stocks/loans etc) and the rest of the world is left with the excitement of the landrush and worthless domains.

I understand what you are saying. To clarify, I merely said the domain could gain interest because it is considered a tld.tld domain. Nevertheless, that wasn't my reason for registering the domain

Re: Thread closed for no reason

Thevirtual: With 710 posts and a membership for 4 months and counting, you should really know that you're going nowhere with this, especially given the members and mod that you're gainsaying. The basic fact is that ; as you have acknowledged, you should have posted it in a cafe forum. Further debate on the issue here is futile and you are just attracting derision.

So my advice to you is: Don't post in this thread again. By tomorrow it will all be forgotten.

I do not wish to continue an argument. I will just add that I have no futher comments regarding this matter.
