.UK Expiring domains implementation review

[rob]

Heads up this has been published https://community.nominet.uk/t/revi...on-of-the-new-expiring-domains-process/1436/1 and worth a read through the PDF

 

[Systreg]

For those not on that forum, what's it about?

 

[Systreg]

Thanks for posting the PDF, cheers.

Interesting read yes, details no.

Its a very wishy washy document that glazes over the actual detail whats going on IMHO.

The UKRAC is discussing this on Friday (tomorrow)
Do send your thoughts directly to the UKRAC group or on the forum

Nominet are happy and were quite clear after the last fine-tooth-comb checking that they considered the matter closed. I don't think they want to put a hundred tagholders out of business for the whining of a couple who can't grasp there's actually real people and businesses on the end of the tags using a service. Over 60,000 domains caught with hosted chasing now for hundreds of tag holders and thousands of domains sold at ukbackorder to the public....and a couple of people cry that those domains should be sitting in their portfolio just for them to ask silly prices. But I'll get my popcorn again and don my armour I suppose.

 

[ukbackorder]

You're probably right.

 

[webber]

So @webber and @super-whois does anyone other than yourself use your drop catching platforms?

As e member of UKRAC I had to declare these interests. Would it help to have increased transparency as a condition to partake in dropcatching?

if you have proof send it through and we'll deal with it.

It's virtually impossible for members to gather any proof, the system is entirely opaque and only Nominet can see the full picture.

There's nobody moans more than you when you aren't winning, you're just getting a taste of your own medicine here.

Please consider this as a Warning.

We are not here to insult anyone. Thank you.

@Admin could you please keep an eye on this? Thank you.

Maybe rather than stick an emoticon as a reply, show some humility and take your time to understand the characters and the politics of this place. I was member number 4 of AD, I've seen them all come and go , I've watched people go from nothing to millionaires, I've sadly experienced members die. I know the characters and there's a good few who know me.

Good afternoon,

As the proud owner of Acorn, though not the administrator, I can address your behavior. Though, it would be more appropriate for @Admin, whose responsibility is to maintain a friendly and professional atmosphere on this forum, to handle this matter. He may choose to impose a temporary ban if necessary.

I personally find it unnecessary to provide lessons on basic norms and ethics of civilized and intelligent human interactions to anyone.

Be well,
Helmuts

I think you may have misinterpreted what CreativeMix said that sparked your initial response.

 

[Helmuts]

Guys, the rules are very simple: do not offend other users. Not a rocket science

Acorn is to stay a friendly and professional place for anybody to do domain business.

Best wishes all!
Helmuts

.. I'm off back to my daily tasks organizing the Summit for all of us.

this..

Some registrars have more than one tag held within their account, so we reviewed the data in relation to the number of unique accounts and saw an increase in those catching.

Members that have convinced Nominet they need extra tags for the use of catching have an advantage.

 

[Helmuts]

Thank you for your thoughts. I warned him, he decided to cross the lines with me and the story ends.

No offense, Ben! I know you wish the best.

Nobody wants a toxic forum. Also, this was #1 request when I had the honor to take this role.

Have a great weekend guys!!

off to work on the Summit.. have lost count on people have talked to over all the platforms

Best of domain business to all!!!
