I would have.

If he had told me he had our domain and offered it back to me for pennies, I would have, and either thrown in a nice bonus and / or nice services and / or clients as a way of saying thank you.

But instead he tells me to pay-up, "or else I'll develop something on it" (Originally it was going to be a webcam review site). Fuck you.

One provider dropped him for it and now he's running Streamate on it. So much for developing - now he's deliberately trying to blur our brands.

"Legal"? Sure. Shitty? Absolutely. He shouldn't even be allowed to work in adult.

I don't think he did anything wrong by picking up the dropped domain. I'd be more concerned about what people have accused of in the past, if indeed its Chris Butler.

I just don't understand why he was dumb enough to try and gouge a fellow gfyer for so much and then try to extort him by threatening to develop the domain. Curious why he isn't at least posting in this thread, maybe something could have been worked out.

Well if you didn't think he was a scumbag before, maybe this will change your mind:

It appears that livecamnetwork.net is re-directing to google right now.

Did streamate can him too?

I'd love to think that but I'm guessing all the Streamate peeps are at the Phoenix Forum at the moment - I'd never expect them to take time away for something dumb like this... but fingers crossed anyway! :)

sarettah 03-22-2018 05:54 PM

Whois is showing an updated date of about 2 hours ago, so something changed. Did he have it regged out till 2020? Because it is showing a 2020 expire now.

I use Bulkregister, everything on autorenew and I keep a $200 deposit there for in case my credit card can't be charged. I almost lost my most important domain last year, my credit card had expired but I totally forgot about it, checked into my Bulkregister account and that one domain was going to expire the next day after they had tried to charge my credit card 3 times... pew! Good luck with getting your domain back Mark.

sarettah 03-22-2018 06:05 PM

Interdasting, it has been changed to cambuilder contacts, which is what streamate requires for the cambuilder whitelabels I think. But it is re-directing to google.

I wonder what is up with that.

That's weird - I didn't know that this was a Streamate requirement. Is this only required for Cambuilder? Or is it required of all affiliates?

Bladewire 03-22-2018 07:32 PM

Like I said before my you need to copyright your domain without the.com and get the .net back via that route.

He feeds off negative energy and the more of this that goes up here on gfy the more he's going to to do stupid shit for attention.

I did not say that someone losing a domain was stupid.

I stated the facts as I know them and my opinion that someone doing what Mark described is NOT in my opinion, necessarily an asshole.

In the search you posted, one item seemed to be about what we are talking about (expired domains) and the link it went to is down, so I can not see what you are talking about.

It does not take much to keep a domain list organized in a spreadsheet or even a text file. I have at times had over 500 domains, right now I have about 100 or so, spread between 4 registrars.

I have never lost a domain because of an expiration. I check about once a month and renew anything coming up in the next 30 days. Right now I am not doing that because at the end of last year I had extra money so I renewed all my domain through May or June and I don't have to worry about it.

I would never depend on the registrar telling me the domain was going to expire. It is MY job to run my business properly.

nuff said.

Again, just my :2 cents:

He eats cum and argues in the Internet. Sounds like a great life. I wouldn’t bother with him much more than to laugh at his misery.

This is from the FAQ on cambuilders https://cambuilder.com/app/#/faq

Quote:

Before you can start getting paid for a payout program other than the standalone Lifetime Revenue Share, you must transfer ownership of your domain to Cambuilder.

That in itself deserves a separate thread. You forget to renew, they grab it for themselves. You can't use other sponsors on that site. They control your ads and links.

Just doesn't seem Kosher.

As for the scammer, he's not scamming but is just looking to hurt you. He has and will make money doing it. Hiring a hacker sounds good but legally you could lose everything

Trademarks are wise. I did it and got money when the moron used my domain name dot org. He lost his sites, money and I didn't gloat, just said it was the price of dishonest business practices. He had a lot of sites like that including stolen content.

Years ago I used a service that notified me when someone used my images without permission. People don't change image names sometimes. I forget the name but it was about $100/year which aid for itself from bills I sent. Hosts and ISPs were happy to dump dishonest customers back then

Mr Pheer 03-22-2018 10:09 PM

I wonder if all the owners of the expired domains that I've bought cry like this.

I've let some really good domains expire and lost them to resellers. Only person I got mad at is myself, because it was ultimately my own fuckup. I havent seen a single one of those domains sell yet. They just sit there with ridiculous asking prices for years and I keep emailing them with my offer of a few hundred dollars for the very very few that I'd like to have back.

From the UK it redirects to nakedcams.net - Live Sex Chat, Sex Shows and Webcam Sex - Amateur Cams and Pornstars not google

Bladewire 03-23-2018 08:49 AM

^^ False

This case is about holding a domain ransom from someone you know in an online community and then competing with them and the same Market space with that domain that is the same as the .com version that's been registered for years.

Totally different from scooping up an expired domain from someone you don't know and trying to monetize it.

Hi Pheer,

I think maybe you missed my original post. I'm not crying (much) because I lost my domain. It was my mistake, and I'm sharing the info so others don't make the same mistake.

What I'm pissed off about, is that a member of the adult community bought my name, knowing it was mine. He tried to sell it to an employee of mine first and THEN tried to sell it to me, and then when I refused he threatened to compete against me in the market. << This is what I'm surprised at. On GFY we all bullshit each other and fight and swear and tell everyone's Moms to go fuck themselves but we all still do business together - not trick each other.

Peace.

Yes I do $2,500 and you get your domain back or else. Don't be a dick an insult me just because you disagree don't try and twist facts and meanings.

You have no problem doing what Chris Butler did to fellow GFY members that's fine don't try and twist things just be a man about it.

You have no problem fucking over fellow GFY members we get it.

Buying up an expired domain is not a scam.

Buying up an expired domain of someone he knows, and then tries to sell it to an employee of mine, is scamy.

Threatening to develop it into something else (A Webcam review site) if I didn't buy it is scam-ish and petty. He could have at least offered to give me a banner on his site or something).

Plugging in Streamate and going to Twitter with a sound-alike name and spell-alike domain name is definitely scammy. He's attempting to trick our few loyal customers by creating brand confusion.

If you were pushing a product on GFY, and I created an account named Fat_Panda and posted products or services that went to a different site, I would be trying to scam your customers. If I offered to sell it to you for $$, I would be scamming you.

I get what you're saying though. Maybe a better phrase would have been "A GFY users is trying to fuck me over".

Yes - but for some people business is business and emotions, feelings, even online friendships do not matter. To some people.

Again, this is an unfortunate situation and again, if it were ME, I would just give the domain back to Mark. BUT what I wrote in the beginning of this thread, as harsh as it is, DOES apply somewhat.

Auto-renew is your friend. LOL

Screwing over people that you know in a forum community, and targeting their specific business by using the same business name, and holding a version of their domain name hostage, is different than taking the domain and reselling it for a profit.

It's not business as usual. It's vindictive, spiteful & petty.

OneHungLo 03-23-2018 10:25 AM

I've made a lot of money snatching up expired domains. I've snatched up thousands and thousands of them. I'm sitting on like 200+ sites that i need to unload right now. I don't think we would be here if some random dude grabbed his domain. This was a calculated move by a user here who has ran through dozens of nics and has been accused of serious amounts of fraud.
