Domain Pet Peeves

[BostonDomainer]

#1 Excessive usage of the "royal we" Ex: We are inclined to sell the name but we feel your offer is on the low side. Perhaps we can work something out.----- Who the hell is we? I'm simply saying.

#2 Lowball offers when I have stated price range..... Look, you are not doing anyone a favor. Posting an xx,xxx name and requesting that range on a forum does not make beggers of the seller. There is a reason a range was posted.

#3 Why is Sedo.com not a 24 hour business? That annoys me

#4 Nam3pros.com bunch of kids running around wild (on the most part)

What's your domaining pet peeves

#5 People coming up with utterly ridiculous logic only they can understand on why their crap domain is worth 1 million.

 

[draggar]

#6 People who try to tell you that you'll be better off buying their domain which is worse than the domain that you're already using.

The amount of students who need quality domains dirt cheap for their school projects.

#14: People who ask for domain appraisals here, then tell the appraisers they're wrong, because the owners have seen similar-quality names selling for $x,xxx or $xx,xxx in the DNJournal reports. (These folks are unfamiliar with the odds of lightning striking.)

15. Inaccurate whois records. I want to buy your domain. An email address that bounces back isn't going to let me transmit an offer to you. Oh well.

16. Seeing useless TLD's in advertisements (I've seen a bank using a .ws email address before. You heard correctly.)

17. The enom girl

18. Fake appraisal emails. I mean seriously, make them look convincing.

19. ccTLD domains priced as though they were the gTLD equivalent

Oh, and...

20. Those goddamned emails from Bido. I did not opt in. I'm yet to see a domain that is even close to half decent on these lists. Do you think that surpassing Bill Waggoner, Alan Ralsky, and even (no... I could never imagine) GoDaddy in spam levels is going to incline me to bid on your junk domain names?

21. Grammatical errors: We did not hear correctly. We read correctly.



















Hey, relax! Enjoy the spoofiness...

You caught me. Which is quite abnormal given my obsessive attention to grammar, punctuation and the like.

What's your diagnosis, doc?

 

[Gerry]

What's your diagnosis, doc?

For me? Or for you?

I'm dyslexic as hell.

Not sure what your issues are.

I talk too much, and per my previous post, believe that I have traits of OCD.

Though CDO would be the proper acronym, as the letters would be in alphabetical order as they should be.

Though CDO would be the proper acronym, as the letters would be in alphabetical order as they should be.

But then I would know that you were talking about OCD and all would make perfect sense to me.

#60 People who go off topic in a forum and don't proceed with the correct next number. And that weird smile in Doc's signature. It's creepy.
