... couldn't resist getting one or two...

Theres a diff between Wikipedia and "wiki" even tho they both would allow user added content etc. Besides doesn't Wikipedia have a trademark?

IDNCowboy · #3 (**permalink**) 2nd August 2006, 04:02 AM

I should also add that just because wiki.com was bought for 2.8 million do you really think it was worth the price?

I'd rather get property.com for $750k...

I was after the "wiki" on those names. I must be the most unlucky bastard in the world! The reason I deleted the first post was because my order didn't went over because of some issue with the credit card and didn't noticed that and posted this here!!!

1 minute after the post one of my best wikis was gonne, SO:

moshe shneider please return my Вики.com (wiki.com Russian)

Others were: ويكي or วิกิ

wiki(n.): A collaborative Web site comprises the perpetual collective work of many authors. Similar to a blog in structure and logic, a wiki allows anyone to edit, delete or modify content that has been placed on the Web site using a browser interface, including the work of previous authors. In contrast, a blog, typically authored by an individual, does not allow visitors to change the original posted material, only add comments to the original content.
The term wiki refers to either the Web site or the software used to create the site. Wiki wiki means “quick” in Hawaiian. The first wiki was created by Ward Cunnigham in 1995.

You lost out fair and square Jose. It was a fair sport.

Lesson learnt I hope.

Alpha, thats what happans when you're a "scammer"

i truly wish everyone to only deal with scammers like myself...i maybe wrong but i think whoever his opinion matters to me got to see a little bit what im about regardless of the cheap bs thats been around

Mods, if its not appropriate delete it..im done on this as far as im concerned

Thanks

Jose are you serious, LOL .... Im sorry but com on Return your Domain it wasnt yours

Congrats Jose way to get it Back !

alpha · #10 (**permalink**) 2nd August 2006, 05:16 AM

This is not going to turn into a Michael bashing session.

Jose posted a list of names. And they get regged, it's the way it goes.

As I said it was fair sport.

If this thread does degenerate into personal attacks it's going to evaporate.

the comment "... couldn't resist getting one or two..." ...

is suggesting that the rest are up for grabs. If this was me, i'd copy n' paste the lot in to DS and reg whats left.

IT WAS FAIR SPORT.

drop it guys.

jose · #12 (**permalink**) 2nd August 2006, 05:21 AM

Ops. I didn't knew you were moshe shneider. I thought your name was Michael.

I trust your worlds my friend! But believe me, I was also telling the truth. I even had emailed my bank before because sometimes during this hour (5-6 AM local time) the card seems to go offline (can't even use the homebanking web site)

I have a solution: let's sell it now and split the profit!

555 · #13 (**permalink**) 2nd August 2006, 05:28 AM

I will PM you guys my domainsite account. Start transferring.

jose · #15 (**permalink**) 2nd August 2006, 05:30 AM

My Gosh, from all dudes out there, it had to be you. I just wanted to put the scammer to shame (what I thought would be a scammer) because I know I would not get it back.

We'll solve this betwen friends. Sorry all. It's a happy ending

THE END
