.XXX Landrush
 

There have been several comments and questions about this, so with only 9 days remaining in Landrush, I wanted to take the opportunity to explain a little bit more about exactly what Landrush is, how it differs from Sunrise, and the benefit to taking advantage of this opportunity if you are considering registering .XXX domains.

Sunrise A was a first come, first served, domain matching opportunity for those people that wanted to secure the .XXX version of their existing and trademarked ADULT domains.

Sunrise B was to enable NON adult companies to protect their NON adult brands.

Landrush is for members of the adult Sponsored Community, but not on a first come, first served basis. Applications for competing names will go to a closed auction at the end of Landrush. In other words, if two people apply for the same name during Landrush, the auction will ONLY be between those two people.

Yes, there is a small premium for buying during Landrush. It varies from Registrar to Registrar, but averages in the range of $80-$100 dollars. This is the part that is 'non-refundable.' However, the cost for the domain name itself IS refundable should someone else apply for it and win it at auction.

Once registration moves to General Availability on December 6th, then it's first come, first served - and this includes Domainers. The fastest to the keyboard, and the fastest to enter their information will be the ones to get the names, and much like with .coms, once a privately held domain goes to auction, the price tends to be highly inflated. This is a great opportunity to purchase short, clear, concise names, and there are some fantastic names still available.

To that end, we invite you to visit buy.xxx where you can connect with the registry check server to see which names are still available.

As always, if you have questions or concerns you are more than welcome to ask me here, or email me at prbot at icmregistry dot com if you prefer.

Eat my cunt.

Do you have one ?:Oh crap

Why didn't .org and .net and .everything else overcharge for simply a bid and then auction the names to the losers?

A man cunt.

Thanks for the info.

Will you be @ Internext to meet up?

sounds legit.

i can't think of any other tld's that charged a fee no matter if you win or lose. what a scam.

Not sure I understand what you're asking.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
fuck .xxx

I personally probably won't be, but there will certainly be a contingent from ICM. Would you like for me to arrange a meeting?

.co did it just last year. $229 - $299 (depending on the registrar) total during Landrush, inclusive of the $30 domain registration, so in fact, higher than .XXX.

Apologies, but that domain is not available. :winkwink:

go and get fucked you piece of shit and

lick-my-filthy-shithole.xxx

double scam there. nothing but tradmark violators in .co. i backordered tons of domains during the .mobi landrush, never charged anything for what i didn't get.

Roll in broken glass and then take a long swim in the ocean

I was just pointing out with that example, that it isn't unheard of or even unusual.

i just did some quick research, the only non refundable part of that cost is an 8-10 dollar application, unlike dot xxx 98 dollar non refundable application fee. how is that justified?

why isn't there an option to landrush .XXX at NameCheap

i cba ordering through GoDaddy or some obscure regitrars

Looks like you're good. :thumbsup

Checking for you.

The guy shows courtesy for explaining things about something that never had much chance in this forum and that deserves respect, not dumb coward "eat my cunt" comments. What does the cunt of a bulletin board addicted movie star wannebe look like, Harmon? Also I checked with another registrar and the domains I applied for in Sunrise are there ticked as "registered". So the problem is with Bulkregister, not with ICM.

If you go to buy.xxx you'll find our 70+ accredited registrars. I'm certain you can get a recommendation from the GFY'ers for one of those.

:Oh crap:Oh crap

Thanks, EukerVoorn. I appreciate the defense, but I also realize that comments like that are simply the culture of GFY. My purpose here is to be helpful, to provide information, and be a point of contact for those people that are interested, or have questions. I can take a little heat if I'm also successful in my purpose.

:thumbsup:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I'd like to add, that I'm happy to engage in conversation - but I wont respond to insults, attacks or threats. Playing board warrior could be fun for a day, but I really have no interest in tossing insults back and forth.

Again, I'm always reachable at the email in my sig.

You are cordially invited to fuck off.

no insults needed, this is a scam, period.
any person(s) that will be "owning" any .xxx domains that I have the .com version off, will be delt with.

hope people will sue your brains out and they should

.xxx will be dead soon. everyone is suing your ass. losers

I swear this sounds like Nalem.....

It depends on what you mean by extras. There are several extras, particularly in the area of mainstream marketing and press that are intended for the benefit of domain holders.

.xxx has no interest in the adult community.

.xxx exists to enrich Lawley and ICM at the expense of anyone they can scam into buying from them. It has no other purpose or benefits.

Good luck in court as you're going to have a tougher time conning the judge than you did ICAAN.

Maybe Johnny V can meet the Judge and introduce himself as "the" director of the Internet.

Might work again :)

Nope.

I do actually have a sense of humor, and that set up was too perfect to resist.

Wouldn't be surprised.

Can we turn this into a "would you hit it" thread? That would be awesome. I'll start...
