Some people do the stupidest shit...
I figure this is worth a laugh...
I've maintained ownership of a URL for probably six or seven years now. Without checking, I couldn't tell you exactly how long it's been. It's an adult domain that I will again be utilizing soon, but even though I've not used it for four years or so and haven't had any interest, I refuse to let my ownership lapse.
The day after I acquired the url, I received an e-mail that was written in horrible broken English, accusing me of 'Stealing' the domain... After a quick back and forth, I learned that 'stealing' meant buying a domain that someone else wanted but never owned.
It's important to note that never once have I been offered a fucking penny by this asshole in exchange for the domain. But..
Each year in early November I receive an e-mail from this same dipshit, "Thanking me to allow my leasing of this very important name to be bought."
Conversely, in Novembers end I can count on another e-mail from this jackass after he or she has discovered that again, I've fucking renewed it, and his very important project (that he's not found a domain for in all this time) will continue to suffer until I see fit to allow the domain to expire in another year.
At this point, even if I never do a thing with it... I'll never let it go. I so look forward to our November communications.
As well... Why not just buy the .net? It's been available most every time I've checked.
Dumb.
