This might interest some of you who use SEDO. They automaticaly rejected these names because they "violate German trademarks":

WholesaleGolfOutlet.com
BMWS.info

So... if you have entries missing, that might be why.

Morons.

Yes, they do.

BMWS I can kinda understand, although I would like to see proof that there is an "S" in the "BMW" trademark.

Perhaps their automatic system just rejects the name if there is any keyword in the name that may have a German trademark. I never saw this error before, and I saw it twice today.

yes, the reject based on keywords.

try entering bmwxxxbbhdddydd.com and you'll get the same message.

as for the other one...
moronic it is.
They probably were thinking of the VW Golf.
