Best to read what people are posting before you comment. It goes some way to stopping you from looking completely stoopid. Although I should imagine that is a tall order in your case.......

They took the top domains and when you check the whois you get one of these 2 messages:
Reserved by ICM Registry for Premium Generic Domain Names Program. For more information please contact: [email protected]. or This name will be awarded after an auction. Click xxxauctions.pool.com for more information. First come first serve my ass, crooks

Anything that is showing as being in an auction would be from Landrush, and those are closed auctions only between the people that bid for the name during that phase of launch, not an open auction.

They are paying millions to brand .xxx and when you type one of the domains in you go to one of their properties or a negotiated leased property.
No "regfee" scores to be had.

I belive that .tv did the same thing when that tld came out. All the good generic terms were sold on auction.

No, but Smokey created a nifty little tool during Landrush and published many of them in various threads.

The difference is that while some of these domains will go to auction, we really want to see them developed with great new ideas. If you have a plan for something exciting and innovative that will blow our minds and knock our socks off, so to speak, and the ability to make it happen, it's possible that we'll allocate a premium domain for the same nominal fee as a domain purchased during General Availability from a registrar.

We aren't in the content business. This sort of opportunity however, (which is real business, with real contracts that include real mutual NDA's) could be fantastic for someone who has a really innovative idea, to spotlight that idea in a way they might otherwise not be able to. To that end, I'll continue to invite people to approach us with exemplary ideas.

Then a lot of the bigger companies, tubes etc would have considered rebranding to .xxx and within a year surfers would type .xxx for many of the biggest sites in the world. You would have made more money in the long run if you hadn't turned this industry against you ![]() |

![]() I still think giving some of the best domains away to the biggest companies could have worked out better for them than their current strategy. You're right that big companies don't need $100 handouts but if I had a massive site in adult and .xxx approached me saying they'd give me a great 3 or 4 letter domain related to my niche I'd consider rebranding. Will be interesting to see how things will have played out in a years time ![]() |

Time will tell for sure. What I'm worried about is their launch strategy of promoting it as the place to put adult to keep it away from those not interested. If they have enough money to pay off the right people then mandatory .xxx is a real possibility.

Reality is that if you let people snap up premium domains for registration fee, most of the registrants will only want to flip them, and this will happen many times until a domain is finally developed.... if it ever is.
.xxx was set up to make money for its owners not the general public and so they obviously want more premium domain sale proceeds to end up in their pocket than in speculators' pockets. It is understandable, but there is a line between good business and greed. We already know which side of the line they are, we are just yet to see how far they have positioned themsleves from that line. ![]()

As a father of two...I can tell you right now that a .kids would be fine for young kids. But no teenager (12 and up) would ever be caught dead in it. It would be as big a "ghetto" as .xxx will be when it gets blocked in most countries around the world.

Yes, some of those domains will go to auction, but...what if you're the guy with the best idea for a 3 or 4 letter domain related to your niche? If your your idea is new, it's innovative, it's intriguing, it's compelling...and you have the ability to make it happen, then we really want to talk to you. And for the record, I'd like to repeat that we have neither desire nor intention to see .XXX become a requirement, anywhere.

perhaps you are the "nimbleton" because a number of premium domains have been sold to various people totaling millions of dollars. ie frank shilling, gay.xxx, shemale.xxx, etc/.

.XXX is built on a model of extortion. No matter what you do, they're going to leach the greatest amount of money out of as many people and corporations as they can.
Their whole business model is a short-term, extort funds setup. They have no plans on hanging around long-term. Dot XXX is designed to grab maximum amounts of money in minimal amounts of time. Understandable, as it'll be less releveant than dot.info in two years. I'm just waiting on coke.xxx, reebok.xxx, generalmotors.xxx to rear their laughable heads. |

Was talking to someone from here on ICQ, this exact same thing happened to them. Bought a somewhat prominent name 4char .xxx name, not even anything super amazing, similar to "lesbian.xxx" in which the plural form is the better one. Someone from .XXX even ICQ'd them sparking up a convo and telling them it was a great buy and they're lucky to get it. Later on they got an email saying "sorry", you can't have it. What a joke.

My only issue really is that I wish we would have been told immediately so we could have secured other names instead while they were still available. There are some still open but not really something I feel strongly about. You would think by now the registrars would be able to work stuff like this out, but I guess not. Today it seems many more people are having the same issue. ![]() |

Yes or no ? Lots of other peeps chiming in about their experiences trying to BUY .xxx domains. Yes or no ? And buy the way none of the peeps talking about their experiences trying to BUY .xxx domains in this thread are suggesting it is a defensive purchase to protect their dot coms. They are all talking about how they thought they had picked up a great domain ! So on reflection, what do you think ? Is the thread broadly about peeps and their experiences BUYING .xxx domains with the odd poster triumphantly saying he has not bought any so he is not concerned. Yes or no ?

You say that you will possibly let domains go if someone approaches you with an idea but in my opinion that's improper and you are overstepping your role. You shouldn't be doing this. I'm also skeptical that you won't either steal the idea or turn it into an opportunity to try to extort the company and collect as much as is possible. The end effect being that the domain is really reserved for a company with deep pockets who is willing to pay as opposed to the savvy little guy who sees opportunity and wants the domain for (the already excessive) normal domain cost. I believe ICANN and government officials should be investigating your actions and I hope their are records being kept so that the information will be available to them.

The difference is that you are an adult only TLD so 1k in registrations can go a lot further than 5k registration in mainstream. You should also be required to release a list of these names. Personally I've seen information which suggests the number might be much higher than 1,000. There is a huge issue with accountability here and all the "glitches" seem rather convenient for you. How do we know you guys aren't taking the names people register when you think they are too good to let go for around $100 and then coming up with some sort of excuse? I've seen evidence which suggests ICM is watching individual registrations so this seems plausible.
