| Once again at the bottom, roughly a hundred posts later in just a day!
This time, I actually had time to read the posts in detail. Last night I was just skimming the first few lines of each...as others have said, this is quite a long thread. Hence, I got the wrong idea about Seraphim's comments. I have already apologized to him privately, and now do so publicly.
I'm not sure if you all caught this, but there was a post by the seller, tm3500 I believe, that this domain is indeed under contract and off the market. I don't think there is any reason to suggest that Geaney is not the buyer for the indicated price.
We've all seen his photo now; definitely the terrorist look. What people are not realizing is that he is probably just being used as a front. The money is obviously not his. From his photo and website, he looks like someone that has been recruited by some wealthy powerful terrorist/racist backers. If he was gullible enough to be recruited by these people, then he is stupid enough to start blurting it out before the sale is even completed.
I still maintain that if this sale is consummated, the domain will not be used for good purposes. The buyers behind Geaney knew exactly what they wanted and why. Which goes back to my original argument, that SS will never be fully divorced from its historical context. On the bright side, Australia is very good at prosecuting things like this, but unfortunately the domain will likely be quickly flipped to some dark corner of the world.
