I fucking hate domainers
 

So I'm trying to find a domain for a new site I'm starting. Of the 80 names I considered, 63 were taken by domainers.

:mad:

On a related note: if anyone has a good politics-related domain, please leave the name, your asking price and contact info in this thread.

Sucks but that's what they do lol.

well that's just the way that it is :)

I wish prices on domain registration were just raised to something like $500 a year...

gripeboard.com (package sale) Creation Date: 10 Sep 2002
A perfect domain for discussing gripes of any subject matter. Buying this domain gets you the following domains as well: gripeboards.com gripeboard.net gripeboards.net

ICQ 269762

FinancialDebate.com and .info for $20 (paypal) at Namecheap. Icq: 584442253

pretty decent name for that price :thumbsup

I'm with you, trying to find a decent domain in certain categories is almost impossible.

I've been wondering what to do with www.goodluckamerica.com

I tell you what to do, do something............:2 cents:

That's a nice price for that domain :2 cents:

i am a domainer

really all I got news/politics related

If the domain is not developed, check the whois and make the owner an offer...half the time you will get lucky and they will sell for a decent amount.

Also check the drop lists, what I do when searching domains in the whois...I make a list of ones that are expiring soon, then try back ordering the domain, and you might just get it.

Looking at your avater pic, if your looking for a Japanese niche domain...sorry I have most of the good ones....good luck. :thumbsup

I hate those domainers too

;)

www.iliketobitch.com ha

it DOES suck :mad:

Half of them are probably people who come up with an idea, register a domain, then never get around to actually doing that idea... :Graucho

Have you checked for some deleted domains.. I have found a ton of good ones that way

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh and one more :1orglaugh

Send me an email Libertine. Be more specific as to the "political" domain your looking for.
Is it for a particular party or person, or rather a cause.

PoliticalGate.com ICQ me ;-)

Hate the game, don't hate the...

The only alternative is "communism", where you have to appear before the ICANN high counsil and present your 'business plan' before you are allowed to register a domain... ;)

Libertine leave some contact info and I'll hit you up.

I've been doing that for a while now. Seems to work decently enough. Have backordered a few and got lucky.

that would change the whole game big time.

I have the glorious name WhiteHouseLies (.) com - serves well regardless of who is president. :) Also some others:

2012Election (.) org
PoliticalOrganizations (.) org
PoliticalSystems (.) org
Reelection (.) org
SupportDemocrats (.) org
SupportRepublicans (.) org

LMK if interested in any.

takendaily.com

sub domains would be back .... :1orglaugh

:error

I'm a domainer :pimp

I feel ya! Every time I go to look for domains, 75% of them are registered and PARKED...yup, parked. Nothing on them and not being monetized. Worthless, absolutely worthless. But hey, domains should be considered at internet real estate.

ObamaIsGay.com work for your needs? :winkwink:

Some nice domains in this thread, but nothing that is of use to me.

If you have anything that might fit an independent political magazine with a global audience, mail me at [email protected]

thats life

Yeah really sux that somehow people decided to buy assets with value before you thought of it. Also, some other folks snapped up all those A-Rod rookie cards too. Fucking assholes. They should just give them all to me 'cuz I have a *real* use for them.

There is always new stuff coming. On Jul 4, 2003 I seen Paris Hilton on E!. Went to whois and the only thing taken was parishilton.com

Well bought *pictures and *nude. She exploded a year later. I should of bought *video One of the few times I was first at anything in this biz. :)

True besides if you are willing to pay 500/per domain you could probably buy most of those 63 that are taken. I hate it as well when I see a great name going unused but everybody's got to make a buck.

I have funwithfascism.com

No, what sucks is that an extremely limited commodity that is essential to doing business online was given out to people for a negligible payment, in unlimited amounts, on a first-come-first-served basis.

Someone who registers them in bulk and only sells at high prices only has to sell 1 in every 100 or so to turn a small profit. And therein lies the problem: it's simple and inexpensive to keep hundreds or even thousands of domains occupied but undeveloped.

I've profited from the system myself, and probably own more domains than most people in this thread. But that doesn't make it a good system.

You could compare the internet to a city in that regard: if land allocation works in such a way that a majority of worthwhile land is taken but undeveloped, the system is broken.
