As far as I see it ...this has been an issue raised many many times here.
As a forum with paid members I think this should be a wake-up call that it is of concern to many here who may or may not be as wise or enlightened as biggedon and therefore it should be an issue that the forum should seriously consider....and/or care about.

If this was an annual membership renewal forum, I humbly suggest it would be seriously considered/listened to....but our money is in the bank.

No one has asked anyone to change any programming or add a hack or break any laws. Just don't make it mandatory for a name in the title. Those that choose to put names in the title could continue to do so. And those that choose NOT to click on threads with no name in the title could exercise that right as well.

Many members have told you they have concerns about it and yet all that seems to fall on deaf ears each and every time, and they get ridiculed/chastised for having that opinion.

I rarely bother to even participate in these any more as it always comes down to the same result but it does get frustrating seeing the same record getting played over and over.

I'll probably get flamed to he-double hockey sticks....
Good luck in your adventure james2002 and peace all,

also, why continue to negotiate with someone who wants to argue your price?

either you settle for what they're willing to pay or you move on.

publicity and exposure is good for your domain!

some of you members who complain about spiders and all that need to quit it.

in reality, most of the domains you're trying to hide ain't worth all that

and in fact, they probably need all the exposure they can get!


i've seen some of the sorriest names being posted for both appraisal and for sale and the OP tries to camouflage the name in the title.


do you really think the past owners of prominent domain sales cared whether or not their name got indexed, botted or spidered?

hell no, because in the end, they are only going to sell if the price is right.

and that's the confidence you gotta have or learn to get/show when trying to sell or responding to offers.



don't keep blaming the forum and title qualifications for your failure to get the most for your domains.

imnmo..
