Do you define these people as 'jerks' or acting out of human nature? I say jerks.
Before you read this, make sure you quickly read the page on ebid.com.
So I stumbled upon ebid.net, then forgot it was .net and typed in .com by mistake.
Well lo and behold, I found possibly the most greediest person online. Basically the owner of ebid.com wants $50,000 per YEAR just for lease of the domain + a percentage of the profits from the owner of ebid.net. Frankly, the owner of ebid.com is an idiot in my opinion. (I take my hat off to Allen Says, the owner of WarriorForum, he isn't even 1/10 as greedy as the owner of ebid.com is.)
Based on my opinion, that's just being a plain ass hole. He even wants a percentage of the profits, while doing nothing at all. Oh, and he also mentions Rick Schwartz, probably the 'father of domain leasing' to be on the phone to facilitate the lease, etc...Just read the page, and see how ridiculous it is.
I doubt Rick Schwartz is renting other peoples domains, is he? Practice what you preach, unless of course, you're a hypocrite.
To the owner of ebid.com and Rick Schwartz, seriously guys, do you think you're special just because you had Internet before the dot-com boom, and bought domains for cheap, then sold them for a huge profit once demand went up?
You did nothing special to make that money, and honestly are quite rude by enslaving individuals with your "domain leasing" strategy. In all honesty, when the teens of today grow up and find out how you make your money, they'll be about ready to gun you down. Imagine if Rick was born in 2013, I'd like to see him buy domains now. So don't boast to today's people, just because you had internet before we did.
Domain leasing does NOT work. How can a person even build backlinks, create a brand, etc, to a domain they don't own?
Don't be jerks guys.
I look forward to hear your comments Warriors.
