Re: Fight Fire with Fire

said by NOYB:


Just searched for domainnamehostagetaker.com from Network Solutions, it is available. Immediately went to GoDaddy and searched for the same name, you guessed it, already taken.

Then searched for domainnamehostagetakers.com at GoDaddy (notice the added 's' this time), it was available. Went back over to Network Solutions and searched for domainnamehostagetakers.com, it was available. Then went back over to GoDaddy and searched for domainnamehostagetakers.com, you guessed it, already taken.
How can this be legal??

I don't know. But when you think about it there is huge potential here for fraud with Network Solutions, or anyone for that matter, having the ability to hold domain names they have not paid for and registered.

For example they could hold a bunch of prime names to force anyone who wants the name to register it through them and prevent them from being registered through the competition.

Network Solutions = Network Scum-Bags

Anyone who is a customer of Network Solutions should immediately take their business elsewhere.

Transfer your domain names, hosting and other services elsewhere.

Boycott Network Solutions scum-bags.

While I may not agree with the practice, I still find NS very easy to use and teach my customers how to maintain their accounts.
