Notice to All .mobi lovers and .mobi haters!

[GT Web]

GD - am I allowed this sig? If not I will take it away, but I feel if I am not insulting any one member or group of members I should be allowed to speak my mind.

 

[GiantDomains]

The sig is funny. Just too many reported threads of .mobi bashing. Like I said in another thread, it's like a restaurant reviewer that hates chicken reviewing a chicken dish. It's gonna be a bad review.

 

[Theo]

OK I confess......I LOVE .mobi, I will eat it for dinner :-D

 

[DomainEngineer]

If you call that a lost opportunity, I call it intelligent decision.

Its good for you....then may be you should not bash other who made their own decision just like you did.:greenwink:

 

[GT Web]

Ok fair enough.

I've actually given a couple premium .mobi's good reviews ($500+) so I'm not totally against .mobi. However, if its a horrible .mobi than I appraise it at what I think its worth.

If someone puts up Porn.mobi for appraisal I will certainly give it some positive words.

 

[GiantDomains]

Thank you for understanding. I don't think .mobi will be a hit either. Yes, please appraise on each name, and you may want to give the extension a chance to see if it starts selling. Who knows?

Acroplex...

so far you have called members "D_ck", "Dumba_s" and used words like "Sh_t" in multiple threads and forums....

I'm not sure but that is grounds for banning... and yet you just keep it up.

What is your "special protection"? What status afford you the ability to abuse this forum, attack members, cuss, swear, insult and carry on as you do... Completely without concern for correction?

Does the fact that you have thousands of posts shield you from being descent? Are you above "honest dissent". Can you not peacefully disagree?

Moderators... why do you allow this? Why would you kick an entire topic from a forum that is significant to the entire movement in order to protect one or two individuals that are KNOWINGLY violating the physical rules and intent of this forum... and laughing at you while they are doing it? Flaunting the fact that you can't and won't do anything about it?

Dont you feel used and manipulated?

I would.

.mobi is not the problem... attitudes like this guy's are. The idea that "they are above the rest of us" and that they have no obligation to the rules, kind respect of the Moderators or the patrons of this forum. They continually point out how much "better" they are than everyone else, berate and attack people without merit or cause and STOP people from using this forum.

When the moderators of this forum let it continue, unrestrained, they are not only hurting the respect of the forum and for their position, they are condoning this kind of behavior if not encouragind it.

Expect to see MORE of it when others see that it's okay and tolerated... even protected.

I'm done arguing with this guy... it's pointless... he's made it clear that he's arguing, insulting and attacking because he CAN and that the mods won't do anything about it. Even pointed out that the people he's attacking will be the ones to get banned.

He's a joke. Any respect for his accomplishments are far outweighed by his actions and statements. No credibility at all. Totally lost.

I just hope this forum, the mods and admins don't cut off their nose to spite their face.

Mods and admins respond to threads that are reported. If you hit the report a post buttin, it will be dealt with by a mod or admin.

GoPC, I don't have time to waste on you.

I have a reputation, a history and multiple sources of feedback about my professionalism. You actually sat down and wrote a diatrebe just for me? I feel honored, even though it contains a lot of hatred and anger towards someone you don't know; and for your own good, that is.

Your isolated quotes fail to disclose the complete environment and circumstances in which the conversation took place; you saw and read the supportive comments - even verbal attacks - of established members that came to slap around a small group of neophytes to which you belong, who feel that we are obligated to sing along their self-proclaimed ruleset and continuous mockery (mjnels is an example).

GoPC, I post a lot and I don't plan to end that any time soon. My advice to you, my dear friend, is to put me on ignore.

 

[GoPC]

In other words... you plan to just carry on.

Exactly my point... total disrespect for this forum and its moderators.

GoPC

 

[Theo]

GoPC, you just don't see the entire picture.

Look, see? I even removed my anti-mobi signature picture, to alleviate the stress I caused you.

Well now, I am getting fond of .mobi names. Love is in the air! :-D

Some things never change... Acroplex or should I say "TimeChange"... What were you before that? I can't seem to remember.

Folks, I wouldn't worry about "Acroplex/TimeChange/???" He has been banned on at least two occasions before. I think we allowed him back in when Adam took over as a sign of goodwill. He then got banned shortly after, but was let back in under under a amnesty program to attract members. He's harmless, but relentless, I'll give him that. The thing for the mods and Adam to take note of his his penchant for stirring up trouble... I'd say three strikes and your out...No refund on the membership.

Keep in mind, this forum won't last very long if members have to "argue" why they bought their names. Instead, I'm sure they'd rather be discussing how to capalize, etc on their investment. Given the fact, .mobi does have some major backing, has had some bigger sales. I wouldn't put this particular domain in the .eu/.in crowd. So in otherwords, it does deserve a little respect. Otherwise, as someone alluded to they will go elsewhere. Not a good thing for a forum, especially since it was created for .mobi domainers....(Just a guess, since it would be counter inuitive to create a forum for .mobi "haters")

Blah blah blah...sold timechange.com in 2004 for a small chunk.

izopod, you were a mod in the days of Greg, what are you now? Nothing.

Free link to my DNF feedback.

Free link to my eBay feedback.

Next please!

Still quick as ever on the response... but just like before as wrong as ever. You were kicked off DNF twice for doing the same stuff you are doing today. Sad, really because you do have some talent at least with logo's.

Just an FYI, I was never a mod. I declined the offer.

 

[domain newbie]

agreed .mobi only causes problems , .mobi makes us mentally ill, lets move on...

 

[Theo]

And what exactly is your point, other than to appear to present some "inside" information? There are members here that change username every month.

Am I quick-witted? Yes. People seem to dislike seeing my name plastered all over the board? Use the ignore function.

If you recall, in the good old days of Dan running the forum, the 3 Amigos that now run Domainstate didn't like my smart ad banners either. But they were complaining for something that they never prohibited.

Look. The ONLY place that the rule "whatever is not explicitly allowed is prohibited" applies, is the military; and I've even served there. So I can be nice and sweet and I can be pretty hardcore, depending on who's stepping on my big toe.

OK, Captain America?

 

[xTOPSECRETx]

Lol This Thread Was Open For Stoping The Problem, And It Has Returned.........looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

 

[izopod]

OK, Captain America?

Whatever...

btw: Kind of sad to see TimeChange.com as a parking spot. I would have kept that domain. It's one of those "priceless" domains. Oh, well I guess you must've needed the cash to sink into "Acroplex.com"

 

[Theo]

izo, I sold the domain in July of 2004. What the new owner did with it is not of my concern.

BTW, my avatar is my real eye. Watching you :-D

Couple of suggestions. I'd lose the trade name "Acroplex" given it sounds like some type of creme you'd use to soothe those hard to reach "itchy" areas if you catch my drift. I am being honest here, no jokes. Think about it... Ack-cro-plex--For those "hard to reach areas". You gave up Timechange.com for Acroplex!!!

The other suggestion is ease up on the 400x800 multi-layer designs at the top of your websites. This says you are still developing websites like it's 2004. The person's staring at you is a big turn off, and is over done on way too many sites.

Lastly, I'd change your name again given my 1st suggestion, and due to the fact, no one...and I do mean no one serious in the webdesign business..uses their "Whatever.com" name as their forum persona. Serious webdesigners (in today's market) will generally use their first name, last initial... THEN put their "Whatever.com" in their sig. Kind of a stylistic suggestion, but one that needs to be made...
