Exaggeration -- don't believe everything you read

[LogicalDomains]

George: Huh? You're extrapolating wrongly, yet again. What's worse, you clearly have the intelligence to know exactly where what you present as simple logic falls flat on its face. This might lead one to suspect that have decided to grind your ax even if it involves you in the presentation of half-truths and distortions.

Just one example: The deal was "nearing the final details". That's completely ambiguous. He does say that no monetary value was assigned to the name, but we don't know what the writer thinks of as "final details", and so we can't know when the name was requested/agreed upon. Maybe it was before discussion of payment method? Maybe before confidentiality/publicity terms? Maybe some subsection of one of those? Maybe something else altogether? We weren't part of it and guessing would be pointless. Not to mention dishonest.

It was part of the deal, period, LogicalDomains. Thus, it was sold. Sorry if that shatters your world, but I've already moved past it.

You can use WHOIS.SC history verify for yourself that the nameservers for dirtyjokes.com changed in early January 2004 to their current ones, but the ownership didn't change until after Feb 2004, i.e. presumably once various payments under the contract were made. Wake up and smell the coffee. Just because no individual value was assigned to it doesn't mean it had zero value -- it just meant there was one total price for a portfolio of domains (men.com, dirtyjokes.com, plus any others that have not been disclosed to the public).

If that's your idea of solid proof, I can only hope you're never called to jury service.

I once agreed to donate a name, changed the DNS over and then had to remind the recipient almost a year later to submit a transfer.

Hey, why don't I ask Rick and/or KRL what the real story was? Oops, already did that. You keep guessing. I've lost interest in this.

The screenshot by KRL clearly says the domain name was "included in the transaction". You're more easily manipulated by after-the-fact spin, clearly. You'd fit into DK's board perfectly, kudos. (bah)

There are 5 stages in coping with grief:

1) Denial
2) Anger
3) Bargaining
4) Depression
5) Acceptance

Let me know when you've progressed from stage #1, to acceptance.

George: I know what happened. You're wrong. End of story.
Go on - post again. You can have the last word.

George is looking for a straight answer.
