When you make an accusation (or even just a statement - even in sarcasm / jest) expect that thread to be looked at closely.

The thing is that we had people (in the past - before my day) beg for ccTLD sales sections and discussion areas - now, very few people use them. So it's a catch-22. Keep them and the forum seems cluttered to some, get rid of them and the others complain that we're killing their sales.

I used to be good at pinball but I haven't played it in years. I will wear the Doc Martens, though.

(replying to your post because it is too early for me to go back and find where the post you quoted came from, I'm still half asleep).

The issue is not as simple as "copying and pasting" a domain into the title, too. What if they list several domains? We don't have the time to pick and choose which one, two, three, etc.. go into the title - we do the wrong one then we're yelled at, if we don't try to "de-google" their 55-letter .bz domain then we get yelled at, if we put them in the wrong order, we get yelled at.

There is a very simple solution:

Decide on a title (say from "Domains for sale!" to "Domains for sale - domain1.com, domain2.net, domain3.vg") and then report the post asking to have it changed - yes, we have re-opened threads after people have done this.

(Even simpler solution- they can put at least one domain in the title).
