oh boy - been having a nice email exchange with a guy who was the previous owner of a .ca domain I picked up in a drop (I was the only bidder at Siber). Starts of asking why did I reg this domain, then how much, etc. Then he must have done some research on my name or something, found I'm a domain investor, and in the next email he's calling me a 'bottom feeder', etc.
I looked up the domain at Google before bidding, and it only had a few returns with emails in them, no website shown. It's a generic term with lots of search returns on different sites, so that was my interest in it - not trying to extort a previous owner who had dropped the name. He assumes I bought it to get a payoff from him, but he was the one who contacted me out of the blue. If you are going to buy a name in a drop, do you have to contact every previous owner first to see if they 'made a mistake'?
Right now I have the domain pointed at one of my webpages of a related subject.
Kind of cheeses me off, the guy let's the domain drop 'by mistake', now is all ticked off at me because I got it in the drop, and the name-calling. Maybe I'll give a blow by blow of all the emails here when it's done.
Maybe the best course is to not answer these emails in the first place.
