This is why you and I and everyone with similar experience should support WLS. I can understand Dotster, and Enom, and Dropwizard, etc opposing WLS. It will drastically cut their expiring domains income.
And, I also understand that BD & Ult will be the 1000 lb gorillas of expiring domains no matter what system is in place. Even so, I am tired of the same deal over and over again (losing to BD & Ult). The more players that come into the business, the less valuable NW & Snaps, etc will be to all of us. But BD & Ult will continue to have their dedicated registrars picking the cream off the top, while the rest of us are left with the scraps. The scraps will never warrant a WLS so do not be fooled into thinking that all names will have a WLS subscription.

If wls happens and bd and ult et al get all the top wls subscriptions then we have 0 chance of snagging a great name where as now we at least have a small chance.
I mean with Ult brining in 6 figures per day there is no way to match their buying power.
On the flip side maybe it increases the value of the names we currently hold???
With all of the information I have read (TONS) about WLS I still have not seen a single thing that would make me root 100% for it. The biggest drawback is the company who is proposing it! I think this would raise a red flag with just about anyone in our business.

WLS is not the solution, neither is grabbing dropped names via directed RRP access. The 100% solution is to contact the registrant of the name. Or the registrar if the owner has deceased.
Between the devil and the deep blue sea however, I vote for WLS since it encourages prospective buyers to approach the owner rather than the current sentiment of waiting for the possibility of a drop which can be wishful thinking and a bloody waste of time. This can only help the reseller market.

Thanks for the support.Originally posted by mole
I know what you mean, devil. WLS isn't something that people like to be reminded about.

WE always get this "WLS is evil and should never come" vs. "the drop game sucks as it is and BD/ULT own it, bring on WLS".
Personally, I wont say my commments on this one (for once) since I am so tired of it.:dead:
