.es - Boom or Bust?

[KwelX]

i think u guys are missing the main issue here being complained about.

the issue is with the .es registry not any particular registrar.

i think freddy's responses show they even the registrars are in the dark still about half of what is actually going on.

the .es registry was/is unorganized and ill-prepared to launch the .es names in any sort of fashion.

 

[damitssam]

excuse me, but do you see many registrars or people on their behalf actually *trying* to assist or even comment here???
Freddy has gone beyond what duty calls to assist people here, so your statement is illogical at best.

read before you speak? d

what place accepts paypal for .es now...

And many registrars do their job by HAND and they go to lunch from 2-4PM, even if you payed your domain, that was free and are praying that in a few seconds someone can register before you in Nic.es; the personel of many registrars do not really think how important is a few seconds or how valuable are domains, because they were used to register 1-5 domains A DAY !!. Plus Nic.es sucks !!

5 mins til and nic.es is down hard already.

F........K what the hell damn

Looks like another night of problems with .ES....why aren't these registrations in real time? I tried regging a so-so name just to see if it would go through OK,it's been 3 hours+ and it's still pending.
Also,does anyone have any insight as to whats going on with the generics? Are the previous applications for generics (under the old rules) being considered? This whole thing is just weird..

..Really messed up.. all my domains still are pending.. 2 have been removed from my account permanently... nic.es shows them available..

Whats going on?

I guess there is some paperwork involved and it will take time for the registrars to manually register the domains "won"... I hope it is the problem...

 

[snicksnack]

Some domains show available on nic.es they are available, you check on a registar site, they are taken. Hope mine went thru.

 

[zaggs.com]

Yes thats because they have been pre regged by someone on that particular registrar site. Not sure why they are still being shown as "Available" on nic.es.

I did warn you guys about how eurodns has a 1/25 shot for the most premium names. Lots of whining i see. omg only 1 out o5 . thats a 20% success ratio, which is good. Although I have no domains backordered at Eurodnsm, I would like to wish freddy luck.

Thank you!

I have seen that some names have been pre ordered by over 120 people. Does this mean that it has been pre regged by 120 seperate registrars?? I did not know that there were that many registrars supplying the .es tld??

Lets hope that tomorrow goes a bit better than today and we get some decent catches.

On the Nic Website are not more then 30 Registrars I think. Perhaps some Registrars send requests double or people ordered over the website of the nic.

Freddy,
When will you start processing todays names? (c-e)

So if we had pre ordered them with nic.es and we were first in the queue on there then we would have almost been guarenteed to get our pre regg's??

Also, when will we get a refund for the names?

 

[StockDoctor]

Sheesh, Here I thought I'd bribed everybody over there from the registry on down. Did I miss somebody?

Edited: Got back this response to my email.

1. already started, all names submitted.
2. As I know there was no possibility of preordering with nic.es, and yesterday morning I was for 95% of the time not able to get a whois on their website.
3. refunds will be made as soon all orders are clarified, if someone need more information about the refund. please reply to the email where you got the invoice from.

Well, I am 1 for 1 as of right now. I ordered a 3 number .es to just make an investment on and got it. I will see how the other 10 do today and in the coming days.

 

[FreddyS]

some figures:
On first day we got successfully 58% registered.
Second day a bit more, about 61% registered.
During the day you should see the names of today in your Account.

Freddy

 

[PapaStiz]

Thanks for keeping us up to date Freddy. I look foward to you grabbing my other good names!
