This forum is starting to really piss me off now.

This forum essentially consists of: various arrogant sods who think that their domains are 'the dogs', when actually they are crap; a load of scammers, liers, and non paying bidders; Mods that work based on personal opinion, have no integrity, and are also arrogant sods; and lowballing scum.

There are no decent, professional people on this forum outside of the Exclusives section, and no longer is it possible for decent business to be done.

Fair enough.. I should leave, go to another forum blah blah blah BUT I don't want to.. I paid to be a member of what WAS an awesome forum. Furthermore this is still the best domain forum even though it is terrible..

Stop complaining about cyber squatting, stolen domain etc... this forum portrays a worse picture of the industry... a bunch of arrogant, testosterone fueled kids with no respect, who cant play nice.

Get out from up your own arses, and stop being dicks.

End of Rant!
 
And the mere fact that you're allowed to have this rant, shows that the forum is doing just fine.
 
:jaw: don't hold back next time

Wow. What happened?

- Johnn calling me a racist, and deleting my posts, when I made the simple but truthful association between none english speaking members, and scammers. Sad but true.

- Johnn closing my sales thread because I told people to not bother posting if they were going to post crap offers. Apparently that is rude, whereas I think it is rude of those that made the offers to disrespect my brain power that much.
Furthermore I almost thought it was my right, and my choice to express my opinions (within the rules of the forum) in MY sales thread.

- The abundance of lowballers, scammers, liers, non-paying bidders (which anyone can see for themselves).

- The abundance of member blogs which go along the lines of 'This is my view, I am awesome, I am right, I am really successful, who cares that this is not interesting at all', or the hugely different 'XYZ is ruining the industry, definitely not me... I am awesome'.

- Sarcastic responses to serious discussions/messages along the lines of 'Shut up, your wrong !'

Need I go on.


A forum should be a place where people can create relevant topics, and others can post their opinions. Full Stop.

A sales forum should be.. A seller can post his domain(s) (in this case) for sale, and others should not comment, not waste time, but rather post offers relevant to the value of the sellers domain(s). The seller should have the right to turn away ridiculous offers.

Mods should moderate excessively rude posts, remove shit offers, and be impartial.

The lyrics are in jest. I love this place!

Sorry to hear about your frustrations though GUA!
 
I know what this place should be. I know it can be improved. I know there are crappy members.

But this forum is a tool to do business. That's why I filter out 99% of the crap and continue on. :)

Unfortunately "shit offers" is highly subjective. One person may think a domain is worth gold while it is garbage to everyone else.

It's funny how people always complain when they're offered $10 for a name they want $150 for but NEVER complain when they are offered $150 for a name they wanted $10 for.:undecided:
 
We need more beer.

Nice tune. Seems to be telling me to make a better domain forum, and only allow decent people in. Then again why bother when with a little work this place could be sorted out.

Yeh I agree, but it would be a much better tool for business if the crappy members were not here in the first place.

I agree. Johnn has WAY to much testosterone pumping through his body, and due to not eating enough protein he is Power hungry. Plus hes one of those ridiculously unrealistic sellers too...

Agreed.. ish. Bad offers are subjective, but shit offers are clear cut. By shit I mean those offers that are so ridiculous it makes your eyes explode when you read it...

On a serious note draggar does an awesome job. Nice guy, who I assume mods the forum... he keeps his modding to himself, and maintaind the forum to the best of his ability.

Female Mods would be great... friendly, fair, women ! In a male dominated industry.
 
What about beer, Thomas? We need votes on this feature.
 
Mods that work based on personal opinion, have no integrity, and are also arrogant sods; and lowballing scum.

is that all of us or certain mods in particular?

i feel your pain, but...

when you make accusations about forum staff, then you risk... what you say you value.

if you value the forum, then show respect for it by showing respect for those who assist in keeping it going

you are no more perfect than i/we/us

if your issue is with particular mod/staff, then pm them and try to work it out, but don't "paint the crew with smear" because your toilet is backed-up. :)

we as members can do more to respond/reply in professional manner, but it takes discipline of self

when you want to rant and rave, you feel it's okay to do so


well, so does everyone else

but they may not start their own thread, they may just decide to do it in your thread or someone else's thread.

if others see how you act and get away with it, then they may want to copy your behaivour

so when you act professional then others may copy

when you act an ass then others may copy that too


it's all about the man in the mirror


imo...
