Cherokee

Charrua,

All of these earn a big $0 in my book.

Domains like this have the potential to give IDN a bad reputation. They are wholly impractical from a marketing standpoint, and are virtually indistinguishable from traditional Latin-based letters.

Of course, most single-letter English '.com' names are currently reserved by ICANN, but when these are released and you start trying to promote your names then you can expect trouble...

Regards,

[jose]

These will only work temporarely, but you already know that right?!

Any offer so far?

Sorry blackops but before you say something like "this have the potential to give IDN a bad reputation" this is a valid genuine one character idn in Cherokee language if it has no value to your knowledge is other thing, anyway i think i know what you are trying to meant the problem begin when people try to register something like "Ꭺmerica" but you are suggesting that my one character idn is the problem, with that kind of thinking they have to delete every single character in all languages, they don't have to allow mix-scripts and thats all.

Thank you blackops.

You can't. Not anymore. I agree with you. As long as you don't mix scripts they are 100% valid and no one can accuse you of anything. It's not your fault characters look alike.

Thank you Jose that was my point right there, i think i am going to ask you to explain it for me next time you do it the short way i just keep going and going

No one is saying that at all. I understand that currently there is no such domain as e.g. the single letter A.com, but I think we can safely assume that there will be.. in time.

..and when the owner of this name decides to start marketing, and you do the same with Ꭺ.com, do you really think they are going to let you carry on marketing with it?? Lol.

Your comment about the letter being valid in the Cherokee language is practically a nonsense, because although Cherokee may indeed be a language pretty much no one has ever heard of it and I doubt the fact that it technical is a language will be an adequate defence when asserting your claim to promote the name.

Lets take a look at a couple of examples:

o.com ó.com (yep, they're visually different and cannot give rise to confusion).

A.com Ꭺ.com (other than the fonts, these are virtually the same and are certainly 'confusingly similar').

IDN's have to be visually dissimilar to other existing names or tm's otherwise they will get the owner in to trouble. Something like yours, that appears only to be a font change in a very minor language will, I believe, be at risk.

I see you have some fabulous domains (esp. the Libyan name) that people here would probably want to sell their own mother for. Don't spoil it by cluttering up yr portfolio with stuff like this - domains can either be an asset or a liability...

Cheers,

[Ross]

Jose, why do you say they will only work temporarily?

Blackops:
1. Many cyrillic characters look exactly the same as latin.
2. You can't decide on the importance of a language over another based on the number of natives. That's discrimination and where would you draw the line?

Jackson:
Once you could mix any script, not anymore.
Once you could could register dingbaits but it will be removed soon on the next implementation.


Charrua, Blackops and Jackson: They are cleaning things up, if Cherokee ends up being decided as a valid language, Charrua is a lucky winner, if not, he has lost a couple of dollars. That's how I see it.

Thank you Jose understood, now blackops the thing is simple A.com CAPITAL LETTER, Ꭺ.com Cherokee, if you typein A.com CAPITAL LETTER in the address bar it goes to a.com because we don't have CAPITAL LETTER in the address bar i find more problems in that case with cyrillic like: а.com and a.com, е.com and e.com.

Thanks Blackops, Jose and Ross for the debate/cooperation.

Charrua and Jose: You may be right, maybe I am looking at this in a narrow-minded way.. and Jose's point about language discrimination is perfectly valid. But I do know we live in an English-dominated world and there are already tm's that exist on all the single-letter Latin's (eg a/A.com) at the USPTO.

Something to consider.. If, perhaps, you did a little site that was in the Cherokee language then it could be shown that you had genuine intentions for the domain.. What do you think?

Cheers,

First of all I would gladly challenge any of these TMs, given the chance.

Secondly, just because there are dubious and speculative TMs granted on single char dot coms in the USA doesn't mean that a person in a country other than USA couldn't register such domain (given the chance) and keep it.

Quite. I think it is ridiculous that these 'pre-emptive' TMs are even allowed to exist. I do know though, that apart from a few speculators, most of the TM holders are large co's who will defend their brand to the hilt..
