closed I'm feeling left out - so I've just reg'd a cigarette name

[DomainPairs]

CigaretteTips.com

I thought it could be used either for selling tips, paper and rolling tobacco, or for giving tips and guide lines for buying cheap cigarettes. Do you think it's got any value.

LOL Just curious: did my post provoke this sudden registrations of *cigarette* domains? Anyway, you gonna develop it or try to sell?

 

[DomainPairs]

There have been quite a few smoking threads recently, and I also looked on Ebay at those turnkey sales sites.

I won't do anything with it, I probably offer it on this board and if it doesn't sell, I'll put it on Ebay.

And how much do you think (expect) to get for it?

selling cigarettes is slightly worse than selling child-porn, but it is better than actually selling human slaves. so its all good.

Umm slight exaggeration - but I can't see any value in it sorry.

I think you have it around the wrong way.

Selling human slaves is ok (as long as everyone knows the safety word.)

Child porn is not.

Selling death is somewhere in the middle.

Regarding cigarettes - Everybody has a choice to make. Its your decision whether you smoke or not.

When it comes to child porn, children are being molested and hurt. Dont try to make smart remarks dragon, when you really just make an asshole out of your self..

PS: This is business, not a charity. And web business is one place where you have to put your personal believes behind..

 

[draqon]

its interesting you mention that child porn involves children being exploited and hurt, cuz thats exactly what the tobacco corporations do. They focus billions of dollars of advertising on getting children under the age of 18 to smoke. If they didnt do this, then i would have no complaints. every *adult* has the right to choose whether or not they smoke.

i certainly dont think you have to put aside personal beliefs to succeed in business. eBay for example, is a company that is immensely profitable without any severe violations of ethics.

But at least these children have a choice. In porn industry, nobody asks them.. Im not a smoker, I have lit a cigarette only once or twice in my life - Just to see how it feels, and why so many people are doing it. I never had intentions to become a smoker, nor did I like it after trying. Im athlete and have strong believes that smoking isnt good. But Im not gonna try stopping you from it. Everybody has to make its own choice, just like I did. Whether somebody is smoking or not, I hardly give a ****. If you are stupid enough to smoke, that youll have to pay the price that comes with it. Sooner or later your lungs will be half dead, but hey - Thats your problem. If I can make money from it, i dont mind - whos stupid enough to smoke, will smoke regardless if i sell it to him or not. If there wasnt me, they would just go across the corner and buy from somebody else. I aint nobodys nanny

Name guy: What would be your comment on cigarettes.com.cn Has it got developing potential or sale value, even though its com.cn which seems not to be appreciated on dnforum? I personally like it, but since you are developing sam kind of site I would like your oppinion on that. Thanks

How did we get onto child porn?

I don't smoke, and I don't like people smoking round me, I don't do drugs either (except coffee and alcohol) not even aspirin. But if people need to smoke, I'm not militant enough to stop them in their own homes etc. I know a lot of people that seem to need it to be effective at work. So my position is that I just thought I reg a name to make a few dollars. www.getcheapcigs.com sold for $167.50 on ebay for example.

I am also anti child porn and have publicly promised not to include or link to sites that include cp or pseudo-cp pictures or descriptions.

I'll put the name in the for sale section as a 24 hour auction later today.

Why 24? Why not regullar?

Seeing as you guys are so enthusiastic about this name, I've put it in the for sale section. If it doesn't sell in a day or so I'll put it on Ebay and see what they make of it.
