| Very well said.
My biggest nirk with the industry is wannabees.
This is a difficult one to explain as I once was a wannabee.. when I started in domaining I had nothing.. I bought and sold crap, and I was extremely naive at times.
Now I have a solid portfolio worth $xx,xxx by even the most stringent of domain appraisers BUT I still have a LOT of crap.
Soon i will put it on sale again hoping that my crap is someone elses gold. I want rid.. I want to recoup my costs so I can get money to buy good names. Simple as.
Problem is statistically very few succeed in any business, especially this one. Some would say I got lucky, I would say I was clever.
What I dont like is the fact that 99.9% of the posts on this forum (including some of my own) are selling complete crap.. which simply put any decent domainer would not want. Everyone deserves a chance and all that, but rather than having an exclusive sales forum (which also seems to be filling with crap), we should have the normal forum which only contains good domains, and then a special forum for shit... NOT the other way around.
Unrealistic sellers (me included) annoy the hell out of me also. |
