Tempest, with all due respect, neither you nor I know enough details about this situation to make an intelligent business decision one way or the other. We don't know Directnic's motivations, and we certainly have no clue what Slick's real response was (was it "I'll do anything you want, I am innocent, so no problem, let me contact the sponsors" or "fuck you, you aren't the internet police"?).
With much respect for everyone involved in the spew that has come with this, all I can say is that at this moment, anyone switching registrars becuase of the (sorry, I have to) tempest in a teapot that has been created around this isn't really doing themselves any favors. Most people don't realize that they are moving to registrars with similar or worse terms... breaking a business relationship they may have had for years with Directnic on that basis is, IMHO, a little short sighted.
It is mob mentality...
Remember, the policy isn't different at any other registrar, they pretty much all routinely lock down and shut off domains for various reasons... the only difference is nobody comes to whine about it on GFY.
That is the bigger picture.
