When we got them, losing them was the last thing on my mind. I thought maybe we'd get hit with another fee to get the member ID with ICM or something else, but it never crossed my mind that things would not be lined up right with the registrars or that this problem would happen.

It did put me on guard and make me question what is going on even more, and I feel like a jack hole because we could have replaced them with other names if I would have been alerted soon enough. Now, the best names are either gone or reserved. I'd rather have a couple "just in case" in the odd event that something tragic down the road happens to .com and adult sites. I looked at it more as insurance than anything.

Directnic has since written me and apologized and took the blame, saying they simply could not secure them for me. I feel like they are blowing smoke up my ass because I don't understand why they would send a confirmation email and "award" them to me if the domains were not secured in the first place. You'd think they would have the process down by now regardless of the tld. We have over 200 domains with them and have never had a single issue with them until now.

*sigh*

The pillow and my naked GF is calling my name. Night everyone.
