Got a warning level of 5 on namepros

[IDNCowboy]

for saying that these aren't IDNs and makes us look bad as it makes them look cheesy.

My post was removed but here is the thread.

Yes, the majority have no real function except phishing and the majority of browsers will soon negate that. The domains are worthless and will soon be seen to be so. If Namepros wants to allow its members to be ripped off in such a manner, then I suggest you let them get on and do it. Once once or two of them get badly burnt, the debate will start in ernest. Until then you can only really help those that are willing to learn.

The problem is that the anger will be directed at all IDNs and not just the obvious phishing domains.

Well maybe or perhaps they will see the importance of making as much information available as possilbe.

You guys have to realize
That none of you posting on NamePros have written about what kinds of domains are bad...
People don't automatically know...

I mean if you guys want an IDN section over there. Inform the community, not tell them what's right, inform them beforehand.

It would be good if someone of you wrote a thread about why Phishing domains are bad & useless.

I'd like to believe that, but my impression of NP and the majority of posters there says otherwise.

That's a very good idea. If I have some time this afternoon I'll give it a try.

TY olney.

Im sick of people at Namepros who start flaming everyone who uses ASCII and then start stating how they all will become millionares.

Im suprised RJ hasnt banned some of your members at namepros.

[domainguru]

How about shutting this thread down so I don't have to sit through yet another childish ASCII vs IDN slanging match. It's not like they can't co-exist :p

I haven't flamed a single person. NOTE how this is going on in the IDN section and not elsewhere on the forum.

You're the flamer. I helped you when you messaged me in the chat regarding IDNs. Thanks for the feedback!

[Olney]

I understand your concern but, most members were members of NP way before being members here. This site is only about 10 months old. I can ask members how to conduct themselves over here, but realistically I don't have the right to tell them how to conduct themselves on other communities they belong to.

Most have a longer history on NP..

If RJ wanted to find a knowledgeable IDNer to be mod or forum leader I wouldn't mind if someone even posted it here... Perhaps that's whats needed.

Save the quote.

[IDNCowboy]

Olney please close this thread.
Those that have the droit need not to reply

Blast you have alot to learn. If it wasn't for me and genius there would be no IDN section on namepros.

[mulligan]

Jeff, you need to relax about the whole IDN thing. If the ASCII guys and gals dont wanna hear it, dont understand it, dont care about it, are not interested, you preaching to them is not going to change anything...

You can quote Ovt scores and bids til you're blue in the face but why bother?

For a founding member of the NP IDN section as far as I can see not much goes on there except for a lot of bickering and barbed insults -- Maybe change your approach if you're determined to preach to them and you might get somewhere.

We got somewhere it was created. I haven't really posted threads in the section however I did respond to ludicrous threads that just make no sense. I am entitled to my opinion. It is a SEPARATE forum. I stayed in the IDN section and did not post anywhere else on the forum. As a moderator your comments are baseless. Close this thread.

Lets not play hallway monitor here. I've been in the domain business for years and I am entitled to what I want to do. This is a separate forum.

Why do you want it closed? You started this thread to inform everybody of your "Level 5 warning" -- Why bring your woes here if it is a seperate forum?

I am not commenting as a moderator, I am saying what I see, what happens over on NP's, in 'your' IDN section... A change in your approach might work wonders.
