Do you still own the first domain you ever registered?
 
I was going through my domains last night and I still own the first three domains I registered.

I probably shouldn't be sentimental about domains, but whenever I remember that I still have those I get a little "awwww..."

fitzmulti 08-03-2009 12:12 PM

I do, yes. It is my corporate one, from Nov 97

CrkMStanz 08-03-2009 12:13 PM

yes, i do :)

Iron Fist 08-03-2009 12:13 PM

No, because I registered it as a free domain and apparently it violated a trademarked term and they had their lawyers go after me for the domain...

Cost them more to go that route than I spent on it :)

Twig 08-03-2009 12:15 PM

Sure do and always will. I actually own every domain I ever registered.

notime 08-03-2009 12:15 PM

yes, many from 1997 to 1999

Gerco 08-03-2009 12:18 PM

yes, and still run my site from it. the first domain I ever registered was extremehole.com

FlexxAeon 08-03-2009 12:18 PM

i do even though i lost it at one point. had to watch it like a hawk for several years and then pounce to get it back

CYF 08-03-2009 12:19 PM

The first two I registered was in 1997 and 1998. I gave one to a buddy, and a domain squatter got another one. The third one I registered in 1999 I still have.

DAMNMAN 08-03-2009 12:21 PM

Still got it.

Was it a mainstream TM that you violated or an adult one?

GrouchyAdmin 08-03-2009 12:31 PM

Yup, but the date's off since I transfered from NetSol to GoDaddy after they did the 'reroute all unadvertised to ourselves' bullshit back around '98.

flip.green 08-03-2009 12:33 PM

Yea i still got mine, bad luck to let it go. even though it suuuucks.

RobertD 08-03-2009 12:56 PM

Yep, Feb '99.

.

okok 08-03-2009 01:02 PM

Nope. Registered CaffeineAnonymous.com ~10 years ago on a lark and did nothing with it.

Dcat 08-03-2009 01:20 PM

Yes. It was a (female name).com

Creation date: 19 Feb 1997

Calico Jack 08-03-2009 01:29 PM

Yes I do, though I don't do much with it at the moment (have done in years gone by).

Thomas1007 08-03-2009 01:30 PM

DonovanTrent 08-03-2009 02:00 PM

Nope. Sold it for a tidy sum awhile back.

who 08-03-2009 02:01 PM

Mine was in 1995 and I no longer own it. I was just a kid... dumb..

BlackCrayon 08-03-2009 02:09 PM

yeah but it sucks.

Jman 08-03-2009 02:10 PM

Yes I do ;-)

Nicky 08-03-2009 02:13 PM

Nope :( too young and dumb in those day's. from 01 I started thinking remotely right about domains but still not even close to what I should have.

fris 08-03-2009 02:16 PM

nope, never renewed it :/ it was hehe.com too

Same here, my first was sqvirtual.com in 1996 but when I transfered it to DirectNIC they changed it to like 2001. Lame, but not that big a deal I guess except it makes me look like I'm full of BS. :disgust

96ukssob 08-03-2009 02:44 PM

nah, bought a lot of worthless domains back then and didnt think it was worth $35 a year

Killswitch - BANNED FOR LIFE 08-03-2009 02:53 PM

No, my stupid ass let it drop because I miss typed it. Was meaning to get googol.com but accidentally spelt it google.com :Oh crap


On a serious note, My first domain was Seneca.com because it was a nickname I got when I moved to a new town from Seneca, and I let it go, now some company has it.

Vjo 08-03-2009 02:55 PM

I would love to post my "let em expire" list sometime. Man I bought alot of crazy lame shit. Plus I prob owned every celeb domain out there that I let expire and many folks picked up. Like soandsonude.com soandsopictures.com back when celeb domains got it done. Today I own 5 celeb domains. I let go at least 100.

I've let go at least 300 domains total. Most weren't that hot but at least 75% were regged later. Not bragging, just a guy who bought too many domains in the early days.

Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life 08-03-2009 02:56 PM

domain squatters are sitting on all 3 of my original domains. They were registered in 99, I grabbed the .com/.org/.net. Not the greatest domains ever, but I guess they must make a few bucks parked as they haven't gone down for a long time.

i WILL get them back one day however, lol...

the_pervert 08-03-2009 02:56 PM

no :(
registered it before i went to college, then i got real broke... whilst going to school and i needed to restock my ramen soup/spam supplies and that took precedence over my silly domain.

i'm sure it would have been worth bank today, awwell.

I feel ya. I lost some good domains/sites too because of my stupidity. Guess starting out early isn't always a good idea.

madawgz 08-03-2009 03:04 PM

no im pretty sure i let it drop

quantum-x 08-03-2009 03:08 PM

skrog 08-03-2009 03:11 PM
