Is your .xxx working ?
 
Has anyone regged today/reserved and have live site ?

Fletch XXX 12-06-2011 11:20 AM

havent regged one.

stocktrader23 12-06-2011 11:21 AM

I love how Smokey doesn't afraid of haters. :1orglaugh

u-Bob 12-06-2011 11:22 AM

<---- didn't reg any.


btw: after you've regged one, don't you have to go through an entire proceudre of waiting for an email from ICM, clicking a confirmation link, giving out some extra info, telling them you are active in the adult industry,...?

SmokeyTheBear 12-06-2011 11:41 AM

i didn't reg one either , so i don't know. just curious..

I hadn't planned on launching anything huge i need a .xxx for , simply overpriced for my needs but why toss up an op for some good flips..

SmokeyTheBear 12-06-2011 11:44 AM

right now the only purpose to get a .xxx is to either protect a name or to grab a simple name that is being squatted on .com or used for something else.

I bought 5 of them that were important to what I do. They are not working yet. Two of them are are still for sale, even on the same registrar, even after they confirmed I own it. Go figure. I can not set the DNS for any of them.

Initially, I did not want to buy any, but I will gamble a few hundred dollars for the "just in case" scenario where .com has problems down the road. But if they were put out of business tomorrow, I would gladly lose that money knowing they are gone.

Sounds about right and what I imagine most will do.

Some registrars don't have a live update at all, I think Godaddy.com gives reliable info. Did you check yours on there already? And I got this reply from ICM support a few hours ago:

"We are preparing the system for General Availability to start soon minutes. Please check your account in about 30 minutes. If the names aren't there, you will likely go to auction for the missing names and will be notified personally by the auctioning company when it will take place."

So if the names are in your ICM account you should be ok.

The reason why they got behind with everything is because they are opportunistic. They wanted to wait with assigning domains till the very last moment hoping they could speculate with them and now they're into trouble and don't have their act together anymore. They gave two deadlines for informing their clients about the status of pre-registrations and both deadlines they didn't make. Promises, promises, nothing but broken promises.

Overpricing is only reason why you are not buying them? Nothing else?

pretty much.. they have a contract, they aren't going anywhere. I want the surfers to have a good way to find my site.

If there was another registry to use i would , but there isn't

If you would do some proper photoshopping and make it look as if that dude pisses on my face I'll be happy to use that as an avatar, I love crazy shit like that :1orglaugh

(go look up the full photo in the "guys on GFY post your photo", it's in fact a photo of a French dude who killed and ate a Chinese girl in Paris, she's also in the photo lol)

Which means that In my previous chat her with you I've made proper conclusion that you are supporter and one of those that are helping them with your attitude.

everything you hate about .xxx , i hate the same, but that doesn't mean i won't buy one or talk about them.

I haven't bought a .xxx yet, not sure i will, so if that makes me a supporter , then ok.

I hate chickens being bashed about , but i will still eat at KFC now and again..:thumbsup

femdomdestiny 12-06-2011 02:00 PM

Well, I was going to KFC just because of BBQ sauce but recently found manufacturer and this product separately to buy in store, so I am not going there anymore....

So what's closer to supporter? Someone that is considering buying them or other people ignoring them absolutely?

so you supported chicken torture ?

would you say you supported chicken torture more or less than a person who never ate at kfc ?

:winkwink:

Yeah go ahead bunch of clownes ! Buy some ! Then don't come in here whine and bitch about it in a couple of months/years.

After 14 years online, jesus christ, webmasters are so fucking dumb it's amazing...

Give all your content for free, then create a ghetto. Fucking clever. FUCK IT and fuck those who bought some.

?

but seriously.. what would someone be whining about ?

lets just suppose for the argument i was the only one who bought a domain.. everyone else boycotted them because they were smart and not dumb.

what did i lose ? i still have a brandable name. If in worst case scenario icm collapsed ( unlikely as they already have enough regs to make a go of it ) whomever took it over would have to honour the registered domains anyways..

I'm against .xxx as much as anyone, $100 per domain is rediculous but last week I was reading a few posts by Stocktrader23 about .xxx and it made me think, I'll see if I can find the post but the point he was making was that people will remember .xxx

So from a branding point of view Smokey is absolutely right, for a short brandable domain it's nothing :2 cents:

Surfers will love it and a lot here will be kicking themselves in the ass (or laughing because they talked shit on the boards but were waiting by their keyboard with buy.xxx open on December 6th).

He's right :2 cents:
