May I say please - that the .xxx would be a better thing if this sort of auctioning was made illegal and the release was fair.

A simple ruling along the way making this type of thing illegal would help tremendously.

For example - if the only way to purchase domains was on an international first come first served basis AND squatting of ANY type was not allowed, then the introduction of .xxx would be a great way to expand any business on the internet - with more reach.

So (and I know im talking basic) - maybe we should not be targetting the banning of .xxx (or the non-introduction thereof) - but instead be INSISTING on certain more amicable ways of its introduction in a fairer manner?

Surely I have a point?

they haven't begun to start auctioning off many yet but flowers.mobi went for 200k. this month they are going to auction off a bunch more including pizza.mobi, singles.mobi, directions.mobi all of which will go for xxx,xxx. this is all about money man, they are going to release the names in whatever manner makes them the most money.

obviously you don't keep up much on domain sales, lots of names go for big money, most recently some names i can remember..shemales.com - 500k, interracialsex.com 150k and a bunch more i can't recall right now.
