Vetted names in Platinum Forums

[ohkus]

So I'd like to see a new forum under the Platinum forums maybe called "Showcase" where people can submit premium names but where they have to be vetted by a panel of moderators. People can submit the same domain to other Categories but this one is for the creme of the crop, higher priced generics/shorts/brandables.

I hate having to sift through all the different Categories to find something interesting and when I posted on the wanted forums for %99 of the responses I got hand regs from three months ago that they wanted $3k for that weren't even brandable.

Having a "vetted" forum is not going to make anyone buy a name they don't want.

Okay....but having vetted names means "Premium" (what a panel decided is premium) names can be shown separately from other names.

define "Premium"

I'd like to hear this, too. What one person considers "premium" another considers junk.

Plus, then the mods / admins would spend all day "voting' on these threads and then listening to people complain when their sales are not approved.

Members can already sell names - premiums or junk.

Seriously, voting one into "premium status" is not going to bring anyone else into the forum to look at it.

If someone feels they have a premium name, then they can list it as such...PREMIUM DOMAIN (insert).com

Plus, who is to determine which extensions are worthy or not?

Does every one buy .ca? .mobi? .net? .de? .nl? .org?

Just list it for sale here and other venues. If someone wants it they'll contact the seller.

There is no science or formula or (to my knowledge) evidence to support the success rate of simply by placing a tag of PREMIUM on it, it will sell.
