To the members....
As everybody who attended last night's auction is aware - member 'Yakov' launched a verbal attack at me for no reason. After he called everybody in the auction/chat "suckers" - I asked him nicely.... "Please do not call the other members suckers". He then flipped out - and called me every name in the book - and basically went ballistic. This guy called me more names - and disrespected me more in one night - than I have been treated in the last 6 month.
Nobody has ever told me to Su ...... well no point in repeating it. :shy:
This is a tough pill for me to swallow - because I work very hard here - and I don't expect to be attacked in such a way when I make a simple request. I try to treat everyone with respect - and I expect the same in return. After talking to a few other people that have dealt with him - it seems he feels because he owns a few two letter domains - that he is better than everyone else here including me (and is above the rules). Heh! The guy has quite the nerve. Never mind the fact that I have sold over 200 domains now myself - and spend countless hours helping members here at the forum - and answering dozens of emails and pm's every day of the week.
However - we believe that everybody is entitled to make a mistake. We are not banning 'Yakov'. We are hoping that he will understand what a big mistake he made last night - and that those type of antics will not be tolerated. So for now we have a clean slate - and I will swallow my pride and attempt to damage my admittedly bruised ego.
To Yakov....
I'm not sure what your problem was - and why my simple request to stop calling members "suckers" caused you to attack me the way you did. I don't really care at this point either. Be warned though - this will not be tolerated. I work very hard as a moderator here sir - and I earned this position. I was doing my job trying to keep members from being insulted by your remarks. I also happen to know a little bit about this business - and have had good success with it.
We will put this behind us now - but you owe me and the members here an apology for your behavior. I hope you are man enough to step and apologize. Don't worry though. We won't ban you if you don't. You will only be hurting your own reputation even further - and that's punishment enough.
Good day sir.
