NicGenie

[Syd]

Please help...

I had the highest bid @ NicGenie on a name that was about to expire. I have just checked the Whois data on that name, and it was 'grabbed' by Parava.net ~ NicGenie's partner registrars; here is the Whois:

Whois Server Version 1.3Domain names in the .com, .net, and .org domains can now be registeredwith many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.netfor detailed information.
Domain Name: *********
Registrar: PARAVA NETWORKS INC DBA REGISTRATEYA.COM NAAME.COM
Whois Server: whois.parava.net Referral URL: http://www.parava.net Name Server: No nameserver
Updated Date: 31-aug-2002>>> Last update of whois database: Sun, 1 Sep 2002 04:55:39 EDT <<<The Registry database contains ONLY .COM, .NET, .ORG, .EDU domains andRegistrars.

Should I assume that the name is mine? Unfortunately I cannot seem to access NicGenie.com to check my account.

Cheers,

Syd.

Yes


"hiya.net" is registered with whois.parava.net - NicGenie

Not "Hiya.net" but a quite a nice .net! ~ I'll let you know when I'm sure I have got it; If I have got it will be a 100% record with NicGenie, 1 out of 1 ~ not bad at all.

Don't count on it.

They also shoot for a lot of big name drops artists like Mike Dinoa etc

It could belong to them.

I should find out tomorrow & I'll let you know ~ but surely if the name is grabbed by NicGenie, then it should go to the highest bidder?

Wow, all along I've been thinking domain drops are based on science, but now I've just learned it's an art form

gmartfin, nice to know from you that I own names with nicgenie.com, the strange thing is that I don't even have registered a name with this company... if you know of a name they registered for me please let me know as I don't have on my record.

Gordon from Rick's E Realestate board.

Nice to see you here.

PARAVA NETWORKS INC DBA REGISTRATEYA.COM NAAME.COM

This is the registrar. That was what I was referring too. I believe you use them too

He said thought he might get the name at nicgenie because Parava had caught it.

Hi Gordon, how are you?
I don't have even 1 name with the registrars you mentioned.

 

[Sheva]

Hi Fizz, how are you?

Gordon, I like to see you think I'M an Artist, too bad not too many people thinks that...

Parava???

I must be going senile

I could swear that was who I used to see in the whois everytime I cursed over a name you got and I wanted.

Especially around 2-3 months ago.

Are you sure you just don't have so many names you forgot about some


LOL

Gordon, maybe you're confusing
PARAVA NETWORKS INC DBA REGISTRATEYA.COM NAAME.COM
with
ALL WEST COMMUNICATIONS, INC. D/B/A AW REGISTRY

Same 26 letters, just arranged differently

 

[Sheva]

Marocco.com its one of the best name I have

<<<Gordon, maybe you're confusing Parava with All West Communications Inc dba AW Registry. Same 26 letters, just arranged differently>>>
