Well I hope you are going to ask the tough questions like
"why is their performance so shithouse now?" and
"are they in collusion with Pool.com?" and

"Why did the vice-president of snapnames go to Canada and start up pool.com?"

"was it to milk more money out of the expired domain game?"

"and is that why snapnames can't win a name now because they want pool to win them"

and
"When is the last time Snapnames won a competitive name?"
and Finally
"Do they really want to use the WLS?"

I bet you dont ask any of those butsay how ggod they are.

Now these are some of the most kick ass questions I've seen. Would like to hear this guy's thoughts on WLS and their deterioration in service compared to Pool.com.

:

now if that was the case, wouldnt snapnames.com be more than happy to allow others to keep mining their database instead of putting up the annoying authorisation box

This is my theory.
Snapnames had the best snapservice in the business but they could see they were making peanuts compared to other snappers like ultrasearch and Buydomains who were using snapnames.com themselves to backorder domains and then resell them for a small fortune.
Some domains were reselling for $50000 that snapnames got only $69 for.
Shit even namewinner whose snap script then was very poor made more money out expired domains than snapnames.
So what to do?They had commited themselves with netsol to the WLS so they couldn't reneg on that and replace it with an auction system without it getting complicated and risking the ire of ICANN who had already approved the WLS.
So what happens?
The vicepresident of snapnames leaves the company and takes with him the snap script and sets up Pool.com.One by one he offers snapnames register affiliates $20000 up front to join with pool with a promise of a % for every domain caught.
Then Pool takes ICANN to court asking for an injuction to stop WLS on the grounds that it will restrict its fair trading rights.
In the meantime Snapnames has given up the ghost except for some minor changes to make it look like its still in the game.But its performance speaks for itself.
the only problem is some peoplelike SEGURU still promote snapnames as a great domain catcher and the loser is the guy who pays $69 up front and gets zilch for his money.

Of course this is all only a theory..but its
A FUCKING GOOD ONE!!
