Get used to it, mate.

It's called a "Doc Shot" - cheap shots taken in an effort to sway you away to the other side (which I think is called the Dark Side).

LMAO at the Fergie being a cyberquatted name...yea, only one Fergie in the world and its a broke-ass former duchess.

Albeit, remember...we are not worthy to be in her presence. In her world, her names (and words) are pure, and holy, and virgin, and full of grace and compassion and represents all that is good with mankind - whereas I am the Beelzebub.

Oh hallowed, Mother Eva. Why must you trouble yourself with a mere mortal being like me?

Why have I become your calling in life in that you find it necessary to continue to spend countless hours going back through threads and obsessing over me?

Doest this not appear to others as a mental deficiency and an obessive nature?

Are there not more worthy humans to save? Is there not another liberal turd you could sway to see things your way?


Nay, oh mutha. I have become your life's curse and your life's purpose.

And doth I would have it any other way?

Nay, I say!

Obsess! Obsess on, ye sacred being of domaindom!

Save the children who suckle on their mother's teet from such a hideous creature as I. Turn away their eyes and look upon me NOT, lest they become cursed and given into by the evil one. That evil one who's name we dare not speak. Speak NOT the name of the domainer's Beelzebub!

Save us, oh Mother Eva. For thine heart is too strong and too kind and of all giving. Thou hast not a moment to spare in thy task, for thou must strike down they who are not of clean thought.

Take you place amongst most Righteous of the Right. Strike down those to thy left and bury them not. For their misdeeds and thoughts...they are forever condemned to lie upon the ground, upon the ground their rotting flesh shall lie to be the fodder of all that is lowly and vile and diseased vermin. Let their sun bleached bones upon the sand forever warn others as a testament to thy holy power and words. Thou has crushed the beast.

Speak not, the name of the Beelzebub.

Don't flatter yourself Doc, the only one obsessing over you is YOU... Everything from your claims of being a doctor, a pilot, a Vietnam vet, (later revise to Vietnam "era" vet) Berry grower and now your certification that nobody gives a shit about. You sure like talking up a storm about yourself don't you?... How long have you been this insecure about yourself?

OK, back on topic.... I see you don't want me going back in your threads, and it's understandable to see why... It's because of posts like this that make you look not only wrong but foolish;


Think your treo is all that?

Go to CLICKZ.com on your treo. Spend some time on it.

Then go to 84t.mobi on your treo. Click on the button for the mobile version fo click Z.

And then tell which is better and best for your treo and your eyes.

Then tell me with your treo everything you are missing by the auto detect deciding FOR YOU what you will see and don't see.

Tell me which loaded faster, tell me which navigated better, and tell me which was easier to read. Screen size is screen size so that is not an issue.

The auto detect decides...the browser decides...not the site, not the webmaster, not the programmer...what you see.


Don't bother going to 84t.mobi, it's expired, And very few of us use a Treo... So let's use a common phone with a domain name that uses mobi and dot com.

I want everyone to follow Doc's instructions and tell us what happens OK?


Think your Iphone is all that?

Go to bofa.com on your Iphone. Spend some time on it.

Then go to bofa.mobi on your treo. (no need to click on button for the mobile version)

And then tell which is better and best for your iphone and your eyes.

Then tell me with your iphone everything you are missing by the auto detect deciding FOR YOU what you will see and don't see.

Tell me which loaded faster, tell me which navigated better, and tell me which was easier to read. Screen size is screen size so that is not an issue.

The auto detect decides...the browser decides...not the site, not the webmaster, not the programmer...what you see.

Any difference in Speed? Navigation? Layout? Anything?.... I don't see it either. :no:

This was DocCom's justification for registering over 500 Mobis, This was the reason he believed Mobi would take off, This was the reason he believed Mobi would increase in value, that it would catch on and users of handheld devices would adopt using the TLD..

We know now that all of this was FALSE....

Will he admit he was wrong?. Knowing Doc and his enormous ego, it will be a cold day in hell before he does that.

I seem to recall you telling us Rosie Palm was your friend, Now you have a friend named Ferdinand?.. Did he replace Rosie?

I don't have a friend called Rosie Palm, is this your attempt at some form of humour that only you comprehend? Some psychosis that still remains after your obvious release from a mental institute?

If making nickels and dimes is your definition of making money, the more power to you, I for one wouldn't waste my time with $1 to $25 sales, I'd rather take that energy and search out some good dot coms that I can sell to potential end users who will ultimately develop them. Like the one I sold up in Vancouver where your at, A medical related franchise that wired high xx,xxx into my escrow account, just as many others have. :).... But what would you know about end-users other than dreaming that one might contact you some day?

Nickels and dimes? LOL I don't particularly want to know what you do to earn nickels and dimes of an evening. Another part of your psychosis possibly? Actually that would go hand in hand with the rampant guilt of you not doing enough to inform people just how bad you thought mobi was, a deep seated hatred of people not willing to adhere to your way of thinking lol. You do make me laugh and thank you for that.

So you sold a domain for xx,xxx, congratulations lol was it a mobi? lol How much of this xx,xxx did you put back into telling the world that mobi was dead and that you were "right" all along? Zero?
You are still having issues with your and you're aren't you lol

I picked up a lot of mobi's for a fraction for what they originally sold for and consistantly make money with them, so I will never believe that mobi is dead until I stop making money daily :) It must annoy you that the article you posted only says "SOME Investors refuse to lose faith in domain names" LOL

Why would it bother me? I like seeing domainers making money, even if it is from a TLD that has no future.. I just wish it was end-users taking the hit instead of unsuspecting domainers, This has been my point all along, a point your much too stupid to get.

Thank you... I wish I could congratulate you too, but with you taking a loss on 640 mobi's, including 4 years of renewal fees, I'm not entirely convinced your ahead.

Nickels and dimes?
Wow. Simply wow.

She is ALL that and more. Geez, I had no idea she sold a name for xx,xxx. To a Canadian of all things.

I am impressed. I've not had anything like that since, um...well, I have not had an xx,xxx sale in 2011 yet if that counts. Really hate to let you down, Newt. I know you were counting on me to come thru.

I'm glad you can laugh about it Newt.... Why you remain in a business selling an extension that's been declining in value for over a year is beyond me.

What's even more puzzling is why buyers would choose to invest in a TLD that is almost worthless. I see sellers on this forum offering mobi's a low as $1, that's right, ONE DOLLAR and many don't even sell.. Obviously their selling at a loss and their trying to get whatever they before they expire, You now this better than anyone having lost 640 Mobi's to the expiration process.

Ohh it bothers you LOL Please get rid of your guilt that you were unable to sway "unsuspecting" lol domainers to stop buying / selling mobi's, you will feel so much better than you do. Let it go then you wouldn't feel so stupid LOL Have you considered counselling?

Thank you... I wish I could congratulate you too, but with you taking a loss on 640 mobi's, including 4 years of renewal fees, I'm not entirely convinced your ahead.

I have a lot more than 640 mobi's now and thank you for your congratulations, I am spending some of the profits on more mobi's :)

Many things are beyond you lol
I might buy them for $1 :) Thanks for putting my name forward to purchase these, it was very generous of you.
Anyone selling mobi's for a $1 please pm me as I might be interested

She knows nothing about you, nothing about your investments, nothing about your sites, nothing about your partners, and nothing about the networks your run.

I am still cracking up at the sanctimonious bullshit about saving "fellow man" and "unsuspecting domainers" from the likes of you and I.

Look, you're never going to convince her you're ahead, I am never going to convince her that I'm even or ahead, and she is never going to learn the difference between your and you're.

This is true mate and she never will; time to leave this thread and unsubscribe. I am done with that happy fool lol

Hi all,

I've spent $$,$$$ on .mobi

I have no regrets

I paid over $8,000 for an adult name that still gets great UV

I make $,$$$ on .mobi I've developed and i get that every year, it returns P1 on google for many keyword search terms and my customers are happy

Thats just one of many

Hopefully your spending some of those profits on the losses you incurred...

From what you posted; You dropped 640 domains, If you paid 4 years of registration and renewal fees on those domains @ $10 a year, that would make your out of pocket $25,600.00

And you say you sold 30 or 40 of them?... Assuming it's 40, You would have to sell each domain for $640 just to break even.

Any TLD can be developed and made to profit.

The only one fighting here is Doc and Newt, 2 mobi investors who get their panties in a wad every time somebody criticizes their investment, An investment that's gone to hell in the last year.

Well, there are at least a few people that have invested five, possibly 6 figures on .mobi and presumably took a huge loss (not just .mobi, history repeats itself n .me .tel .asia perhaps etc)

I completely understand they won't come posting here about their failure.

Some things just are not meant to be understood by some people.

Many of you perhaps like brussel spouts. I hate em.

I've got to go complete an icebreaker.
