That would be a stupid bet. The big guys will have to decide when is the right time to pay for a WLS for each and every name. To pay for WLS for a great name that is 5 years from expiration will be a waste of money. So, everyone with any brains will be watching names and trying to decide when and if it is worth paying for the subscription. Everyone will be on an equal footing. The people who say that BD & Ult and other big players will have an advantage because they have more $ are wrong.

It is likely that they may be smarter about how to deploy their WLS $ than you will be. Like they are probably smarter about buying Snaps now than you are.

hiOsilver - I think you are right!

Yes you are right but the only reason they are able to determine the best names going to drop is all to do with hardware bandwidth and luck.

So yes it is to do with money as most people will only be able to determine a few names. I know how they work and the system will still be flooded by them.

The thing we need to do is make the market more fair so we have a better chance of getting good names.

The WLS will put 90 percent of the people on this board out of business and if you don't believe me just wait and see

Many of those people don't want to admit the truth. They would rather dream that WLS is going to allow them to suddenly start catching Dogs.com, Casino.com, Cash.com, and a lot more for $7 each, even though they can't figure out how to catch mediocre names right now.

WLS would make things worse, not better, for anyone who is serious in this business. For anyone who isn't serious, they will be gone if WLS launches.

I strongly doubt it. If WLS comes into place, there will be other fields of interest to explore. If anything, this business have taught us how to adapt to changes. If you are willing and able to make these changes, I see no reason why anyone should go out of business.

Then again, WLS must take place in order for this to happen. To be continued...

DomainGoon,

You are correct. And, they are hoping it will level the field. It will not.

All it is doing is moving $ 24 from your pocket to Verisign.
