Here's the bottom line,
This thread started out constructive and then went off topic.
As Nameslave mentioned the rules are here for a reason and a few outspoken members will not change the rules, this is a suggestion area not an area for demands.
The thread will accomplish it's original intent:
1) When a thread is closed a reason will be given.
2) The domain in title will stay as a rule. Most domainers, including me, won't even look at a thread without a domain in it, so whenether you believe it or not, endusers or no end users, it affects your sales. Why would you go into a store that had nothing in the window you were interested in.
3) Doc's suggestion of a re-org of the subforums is a good one and as management I am clearly open to that one. Plesae feel free to start a new string called suggested re-org and drop your 'suggestions' there. We can't act on all of them but clearly the ones that make sense will be acted upon.
4) If you still feel you want to have domains that are not indexed, upgrade to Exclusive and I'll add a section where you can feel free to post all your names without getting any eyes to view them.
I think the other point to take from this is just because people found gold in the the mines doesn't mean they are jewelers. People need to understand there is more to being a domainer than just finding good domains. It is important to be able to find bueyrs for your products without thinking a post from you or a previous buyer can affect your ability to negotiate.
This thread will now be closed.
Reason: The dead horse has been beaten enough.
Please feel free to PM me if you still want to discuss it.
It's time to go back to domaining.
