You're right! GD has been suckin' BIG TIME for the last few weeks! Is it at all possible that Network Solutions could be playing some act of retaliation on GD whereby the attempts at catching the drops are being thwarted as punishment for the GD "Site Finder" lawsuit? I know it sounds pretty farfetched but could it be possible?

And another thing, Pool again did not get one name for me today, names like nohope.com, eyecandy.net, themasters.net, longislanders.com, earthday.com, adultresort.com, blackafrica.com, pageid.com, etc.! Some were not too high at NameWinner and Pool got nary a one! I just don't understand it. This has been one hell of a lousy week!

As a long time supporter of GD Backorders, I must also agree, they haven't caught a decent name for me in about a month. I think it is time for them to revamp their scripts, as the other catchers generally do every few days.

Godaddy did about 13% for me this week, and beat name winner and snap on a couple of them, namewinner actually did me pretty well I think I got 3 out of 9 that I was high bidder on (all bids under $50).

How about SnapNames? Are they doing any better these days?

Not for me, Still have 47 of 52 snaps that I had when pool entered the building. And the 5 that they caught weren't great. Just a few traffic names, that had $60-70 bids on NW.

I can't say for sure but I think they are doing better. I had some snaps that were about to expire and they all caught names the very last few days of their lifetime.

GD sucks bigtime. They are very very lousy. Snapnames is fine. I keep on getting names through them. $70 is not bad when you fancy a name and are willing to pay. NW grabs low end names but in some cases has grabbed them for less than $70 for me when I also had snap.

GoDaddy backorder should be renamed something like StopDaddy. Or maybe NoGoDaddy.

Sometimes they miss even when there's no competition!

Everytime I talk to a rep, I always bring this up. Maybe, just maybe, if enough people complain, they will do something about it. But I doubt it.
