Seriously, you should probably chill a bit about all the "hatred" comments. There's no emotion behind my earlier comments in this thread and nothing resembling hatred for an auction model. You're probably reading more into it. I can assure you it doesn't matter to me whether you bought a domain at auction or not, unless I was bidding against you for it and lost. I wasn't.
Fact: You participated in an auction for a domain name.
Fact: Brandon inquired.
Fact: My reply is dead-fucking-on. He had the same chance as you did, if he was willing to pay more for the name than you did.
I used to buy thousands of names. I'm not as competitive with my own members as you are. At
http://www.clickmojo.com/ they can find data that is much more useful. I am around on ICQ or Email almost always, answering questions and helping manipulate data into custom formats that most of my users request. I won't over hype it. I don't promise them great names. I try to make sure they know how the game will be played so they're not feeling deceived when they realize the
BEST names are almost always going to mean they have to compete for them and be willing to pay more than others are, including you.
If I'm being misleading in what I'm posting in any way, please point it out to me.
