March 31, 2020 by Raymond Hackney 9 Comments

Epik wins the Namepros 2020 Best registrar As I have stated before this year’s poll was pretty contentious for the first time the poll was public.

Namepros updates their commenting system

March 27, 2020 by Raymond Hackney 4 Comments

Namepros made a change today that has been a long time coming. For some it’s trivial, others they wish to see it disappear and for others it’s about time. When someone comments on Namepros, members could like, dislike or thank. Much debate took place for years on whether disagree is more palatable than dislike. Members […]

February 12, 2020 by Raymond Hackney Leave a Comment

L/e/a/r/n/C/r/y/p/t/o.com sold for $30,000, this was not reported on Namebio or DNJournal.

Now Namepros is really getting ridiculous

January 22, 2020 by Raymond Hackney 38 Comments

I wrote a post yesterday about outrageous domain wanted threads. It seems Namepros really does not want to address the most problematic threads as evidenced by replies in this thread.
