no badly enough to bid it up and not badly enough to care who is behind what handle - so my point is that if there is hypothetically a business out there that "8u" matters to and they want to win an auction - then more power to them in a free-market economy. if i snag it through godaddy and get lucky then they have to roll with us to get it. there are numerous reasons domains are of value to different companies- some speculate, some drive traffic, some are protecting themselves from unfair competition, etc..
all webmasters can benefit from jumping into the mix with
http://IPalert.com and building value with domains. some of our newbies at ipalert are bragging already on some obscure pickups of domains with traffic. more competition is good with us. i still have not figured out what your overall hatred towards the auction model stems from though. is it that you yourself are getting less domains? more runup's? what's happening from your perspective?
