I know, I know. Yes, it's stupid, but I couldn't resist. (It's spelled right, by the way). I had to delete two names before my GF would let buy this one.

...TheFlag.info and and ItsMyBox.com are available for registration now, by the way. :razz:

Total vanity name or spoof site. Comments?

It is very unfortunate that you are using the word Evil with Buddha. You must apologise and withdraw this posting asap. Seems like work of a religious extremist . You may not be aware that Lord Buddha spread the message of peace and love for all much before anyone else.

There is a big difference between anti* and evil* . Both are bad but evil* is plain stupid.

TheBansche formally apologizes for concatenatign the words "Evil" and 'Buddha" together in the same domain name, creating an offensive oxymoron which some have taken as an indication of TheBansche's Ill Will towards Eastern Religions. TheBansche and SkunkMedia.com also officially retract any postings referring to this domain and disavow any knowledge of such postings.

Let the record show that TheBansche, a Non-Mormon living in a few miles from BYU in Orem Utah, Is well aquainted with the teachings of The Buddha. The Bansche has the utmost respect for Eastern Religions in genaral and the teachings of The Buddha in particular. It is the belief of TheBansche that the love and wisdom contained in the teachings of The Buddha are indirectly reflected in the traditions of many of today's western religious traditions. TheBansche further believes that if The Buddha's teachings were more widely studied and accepted, most of the Evil in today's world would cease to exist, or would exist to a much lesser extent, than it does today.

SkunkMedia.com and TheBansche sincerely regret having detracted in any way from the business nature of this forum. In the future, SkunkMedia.com will take great pains to ensure that postings of TheBansche are in line with the serious nature of this forum, and the sensabilities of it's members. Although the SkunkMedia.com domain collection will continue to reflect both the savvy intellect AND the sick, dry sense of humor of TheBansche, we will in the future instruct TheBansche NOT to post potentially offensive domains in this forum.

Thank you all for your patience with TheBansche, and we apologive again for any hard feelings we may have caused.

:)

Personally, I have seen much more offensive things going on here on a regular basis.

TheBansche, you did nothing wrong by posting that here. The domain is a little weird and probably worthless, but you could certainly do a lot worse (look at any drop list and you'll agree)

As for being offensive, this domain doesn't have nearly the same effect on me that, say, bestiality domains would, or even stupid trademark violations would. In fact, this domain falls squarely into freedom of speech/ freedom of religion domains that deserve to be fought for and protected from those who would try to censor them for political reasons.

While your apology is clearly sincere, I don't really think it was fully warranted, beyond maybe a statement that your intentions were not to offend.

Though I am not sure where you might find them, there are probably those who could find a use for your domain and make a thought-provoking site out of it. The nature of that site eludes me at the moment, but that's the beauty of the system we live under.

Best of luck.

Judging by the reaction from the crowd I would say its worth at least that.

Not sure I would have apoligized Banche.
People post offensive names all the time here but don't usually receive the sniveling feedback you got for this name.

Maybe I'll think twice next time when someone posts a gay related name that offends me! I'm a hetero and I usually keep my feelings to myself...I'd like to keep it that way...but as I said. Maybe I'll think twice next time?
Nah, that would just put me at a non subjective level.
Good Luck!
