That's a decline? From 106,000 to 106,000? Obviously, there would be drops around the first year. Lots of people registered lots of junk expecting to get rich immediately. And lots of people were scared into defensive registrations and then decided to let go after a year to sleep on it. Everybody expected this. But these numbers do NOT show a decline from day 1 till now. They show a flat line.

Whether these numbers are accurate or not, I can't say. It's your link.

None of this has anything to do with Viejo.xxx as a brand name for an adult site. The alternatives to this domain are ... what? Viejo.com is developed. Viejo.net and Viejo.org don't seem like adult sites, and they're $5k each anyway. So presumably what you're advocating is a multi-word .COM that has negligible exact and phrase search volume -- and which would be completely forgettable in comparison to this single word that people search for 50 million times per year or so!

Other than sabotage somebody else's business efforts, what precisely do you think you're doing?

And what would you think of somebody who hangs around the Toyota dealer and interferes between a customer and the salesman by saying that Toyota is in decline?

How is this any different? Come on, guys. I'm not the ICM registry. Even if you don't think any .XXX domain at all has any reason to exist, why not get a life and work on your own businesses rather than throwing rocks through the windows of your neighbor's shop?
