lollololol

To me, sounds like Eight may know a thing or two. Don't let the postcount fool you.

If anyone who knows anything about domains would name two people in this biz who would understand the issue at hand, I bet you a million Dombuyers that they'd say Slavik and Webfather. It would be soooo cool to know what they have to say about this matter (granted, Slavik is involved in this little incident but that doesn't take away one fucking bit of his credibility).

And you know what, since I'm a betting man, I'm gonna bet that they WILL have something to say about this matter. And Dombuyer isn't gonna like that.

And for all you retards, let me quote 12clicks for a moment..."Respect your betters".

I can say right now that Topbucks lost 20 signups per day becasue some fucking retard sales chick named Trisha fucked up and took Dombuys side in the initial thread about this.

The rest of you sponsors know who I am.

I'll take that challenge! :321GFY

I was the one sitting in a bar in Las Vegas at a convention the very first of it's kind and I told WebFather what to do with all those domains, go for it, he WILL confirm. There are a lot of people who know about domains, but you all need to stop slaming each other and get back to work, there are some big deals in the works these days and all this is a waste of everyones time! Just my opinion! :321GFY

we have spend.com available for low-six fyi

:winkwink:

Power to you then man, I was clueless back then (I guess you're talking one of the initial audiotext conventions back in 94-95) and I'm impressed with everyone who could see this coming. That wasn't really what I meant though. I was talking in appraisal terms...

sidenote- all hell is going to break loose on this board when we do our first patent enforcements

spend.com low-six

Evan, care to share?;-)

Nice one Evan, you will not remember, I've been very low key the last five years, but we met, exchanged a few drinks in Chicago, had a great time. Nice domain :-)

Oh yeah, wore my XPAYS shirt a couple days ago but it is getting worn out, they wash everything by hand down here :1orglaugh

I can find him for you for a fee. I lived in antigua for two years and have connects there

Attacking Slavik on GFY over this was a mistake.

He didn't even have them hooked up at the time :1orglaugh

But he learned quick :thumbsup

Anyway can we all just get back to work!

:thumbsup email me a ship address and i will ship you out a lot of different styles of http://XThreadz.com gear to you on tuesday and anytime you are up in the bay area - please hit me up.

it's refreshing to see that a lot of warrior domain people see some of the things that i have been thinking. dombuyer needs to at least buy a little banner here already and establish himself in a new way to have some growth imho, but it's his biz and not mine, nice to catch up with you and everybody have a great weekend! :)

It's nothing to do with post count. It's more to do with the anon nickname aspect WITH a low postcount, coupled with the post where you show
A) a cocky condescending attitude
and
B) an attitude that tells me you are actually someone 'probably' known and established who is using the name "eight", a name I don't ever recall seeing in all my nearing 8 years of experience in this business.

No, I judge no one solely on post count. In fact, I tend to not "judge" anyone per se, with the exception of what they say and how they say it of course. When I choose to take my own business to someone else, I tend to gravitate towards those who I know and preferably those who have exhibited some semblance of grace and professionalism, and who are people of their word.

I find you can tell a lot about a person's character in what they say and how they say it, anon nick or not. However, it's just as much a crap shoot as an exact science. The questionables certainly outweigh the givens by a considerable margin.


/ramblings.

You seem like an okay guy, but no, I'm sorry, we can't...That lying sack of shit is tyring to make out to be something he's not. And in the process he's damaging the reputation of people I've know and respected for a long time (and people I don't know, but I'll fucking defend them anyway). Dombuyer is a small time crook who buys crap domains fomr newbies at 20 bucks a pop and sells them at 50 bucks. That doesn't make you cool. (DISCLAIMER: I hear through the grapewine that doing 20-dollar domain deals DOES make you cool in some areas).

Thanks Evan, no one here will understand the shirt, kinda is neat, so I'll wait until I see you next :) and we will :thumbsup

You're right on every point.

I have no idea who you are and really honestly don't want to get involved in this, but I will tell you this:

A) If someone can buy someting, anything at $10 and sell it at $30
more power to them!

I run 2 restaurants and my job and my responsibility to my staff is to make a profit damn it!

Enough said :321GFY

P.S. Not taking sides! :pimp

posting from vegas and wearing an old xpays shirt

So what is your angle in trying to add to the smokescreen? The issue isn't and never was whether Dombuyer offered the best price it was possible to get for the domain in question. Indeed it's hardly likely he did, since where would his margin have been then? The only issue is whether or not Aga gave his word that he would sell that domain for the agreed price and so far I haven't seen him claim that he did not. End of story.

And what is with the crap in your next post about "Respect your betters"? Respect is earned and behaving poorly isn't exactly the way to go.

I couldn't have cared less about the original issue and I wouldn't know Dombuyer, Aga or whoever if I fell over them. But it pisses me off that every time someone is put down for behaving badly, instead of just putting their hands up, they and their crew turn up to bury us in bullshit and snide comments aimed at discrediting their critic. That's a tired old tactic which is an insult to the intelligence of everyone here. If someone doesn't want other people saying negative things about them, it's simple: don't give them cause to do so.

LOL, Hey Slav :1orglaugh

Haha, Slavik is back!

Okay, let me ask you all this....If somone can MAKE a great deal in a "free" country, is it no then our right to BACK OUT of a bad deal? I mean, before the contract is signed, there has to me room to maneuver, isn't that right? Isn't that what make s good business man?

Oh, and for the record. I was just approached by Lord Aga (whom I've just met passing by once before), and looked at some of the correspondance and I can see why Dombuyer chose not to sue, hahaha, it's pretty pathetic. The guy actually sent money BEFORE they even agreed on a price!

This is a good post.

The title of this thread and it's existance really is what I find unprofessional. But I suppose it creates more overall interest and in the end... more business. Drama is like that.

But at some point I find myself wondering... when do we rise above this sort of shit? When is a person "big" enough to just get on with it and get over it and be the bigger person about it? I don't know, it's just the way my mind works.

I like to get into the board drama and slams and burns and kiddy retaliations as much as the next guy, but when it comes to the business side of thnngs that's where it ends.... for me.

And.... a deal is still a deal where I come from. Not taking sides at all here, as I don't claim to know what went down other than what's been posted. I'm just saying that to me a person is only as good as their word, and your word is your bond. I try to live up to that and I expect no less in others who deal with me. Unrealistic? Probably so.... which is why I tend to do most of what I need done myself as opposed to hiring someone.

if an employee's opinion bothers you in such degree seek therapy :2 cents:

I don't know what to reply? I don't know Lord Aga apart from the fact that I've said hello at a convention. The "respect your betters" thing was meant to be humor...I stole that from 12clicks. The rest of your post I don't really understand....

package coming - grey and foggy here. good time to be in vegas - have fun :thumbsup

Agreed, that's a little on the touchy side...

My answer: I would say that in principle you are right, with the one caveat that one should not utter the phrase "It's a deal" to someone unless it is in fact a done deal. If I ask that person again "You're sure? It's a deal then?" and he says "Yup", "yep", "You bet" or anything in the affirmative, then by God in my vocabulary that's as good as a signed contract. Not legally mind you, but according to my own set of principles it is.

When I'm not 100% sure and looking for maneouvering room in a deal, I tend to be a bit less commital until I'm sure. Only then do I tell someone it's a deal. If Aga actually followed that then he's likely 100% in the right. If not, I'd have to say both sides share some of the blame in this fiasco.

It's still not something that can't be gotten past though. :D

Haha, CD, when you're right, you're right! Double affirmation is a done deal! Agreed! Does Dombuyer? Does Lord Aga?

If you're ever in the mood to network and explore ways of doing business with others let me know. I'd enjoy knowing who you really are.

Sorry, I'm a coward:-(

Okay,


So while the attention is on this thread, I have a few 7 figure domains available, anyone who is interested can email me at president at presidnet dot net, for the record, these are mainstream domains!

I will be at the restaurants most of the night, but will respond to any emails that arrive :-) in the weeeeeee hours of the morning :1orglaugh

Would you llike to buy Cowards.com, I own it :1orglaugh

:) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Noted :)

CD Smith and Eight sitting in a tree K I S S I N G !!

Yes, I would:-) PM me if you have an asking price. I wouldn't wanna bid on something like that.

:thumbsup
Just send me an email and we will talk, president at president dot net


OBTW,

Since you seem to have people after you, I also own


threats.com

Psst .. dont sell to Dombuyer.. his bosses at Innovations HQ Antigua anly allow him to negotiate on domains if he has already sold it on for a 200% markup!

i guess so :Oh crap

And the problem with that is???????????????


By the way, you may not remember but you Meat and Serge and I have had breakfast before! :upsidedow

Haha, that confirms what I hear...Dombuyer is just a fucking peon:-) Great big humor in that, I'm sure you'll agree (all you ass kissing fuckers).

Really? :Oh crap

President,
I'm sure you had your chance but missed out. Leave it the fuck alone and get on with your life. It's not our fault your poor.

Over and Out.

Not sure who the fuck you are, but, I'v sold Dombuyer some cool domains in the past, and I feel comfortable with the price paid!

Let's get back to work!

Yes I did post something to that effect months ago. However, (again with the however!) I was speaking more to the regular's on this and a few other boards who reg up an anon nick in order to anonymously trash people while hiding behind said nick.

You seem to so far be falling short of that, which is a good thing.

Anyhoo, it's of course your call. I can be happy with just this good conversation.
