jt2377 03-01-2005, 01:58 AM domain is a low risk investment when you register with chapest domain register.
domain name is in the eyes of beholder. something may look stupid or crazy but if a person who want to develop something and love your whacky/crazy/totally stupid domain name, he/she will pay a good sum for it.
IMO, domain name is a very cheap low risk hobby investment. i said hobby as some domain name may never sell but who are if you hit just one jackpot. you get it all back or you can put it all in one package and sell it as whole bunch of whacky/crazy/totally stupid domain name may worth more than selling it one by one.
i got about 15 domain. i'm alway on the lookout for some crazy domain name to register.
my two cent.
CD Burnt 03-01-2005, 02:08 AM put a group up for a trade for one better name......... see if you can get one better name while reducing your annual fees.
(with even trade, no payment problems)
Sboss 03-01-2005, 03:04 AM U know,I,m desperately looking for a domain....but those names...not even I want them ! ;)
I,m trying to find a suitable theme ...thinking...thinking...aah ooops no ....
No idea
Enjoy
rhinohost.net 03-01-2005, 03:07 AM mmo is suppose be massive multiplayer hehe :P very pop for people who liek that stuff.

actualy no it aint.. Theres many MMO type games like secound life and planetside and so and so and others. Basicly any game with tons people online. Does not have to be a rpg.
So basicly MMO is a Genre
Jeffreyw 03-01-2005, 08:17 PM You have to carefully study the domains you plan to buy. Choose .COM first. Easy to remember and type in.
kohashi 03-02-2005, 10:22 AM A good idea if you aren't using them would probably be to stop buying them. No sense in wasting money if you aren't going to sell/develop/so something with them. It is a bad habit many of us here are probably familiar with ;)
brickholius 03-03-2005, 04:08 AM yea im up to 140 domains :/. There are lots of things you can do with domains that you arent using for a real site. Buying domain names is very addicting. I just need the time to put out the ideas i have for each one :)

At 5000 names mine is more an incurable sickness. In all seriousness you can earn a fair amount on traffic if you get the correct names.

If you mean "not ... anything but Stormpay" then I suggest listing it in their free auctions at a few bucks higher than you paid and see what happens. It's free to list, and free to relist with a click of the botton. Or go crazy and list for $69.95 or whatever and just re-list everytime a listing ended notice comes by mail.
Goodluck
I have 200 domains and Still buYing, I dont know what to do with them.

Good advice.
mdadnan 03-06-2005, 05:10 AM If you don't know what to do with them, I would suggest to list them all at Sedo. You will know exactly which domains are bringing traffic and also you have different payment options from Sedo like Paypal, Wire transfer or a check if your domains get sold.
dmaven 03-06-2005, 01:10 PM if the names have some form of traffic you can monetize them with services liek sedo, domainsponsor etc

Wow! how do you afford all this?
I've got around 12 domains and they cost a fair bit each month
dmaven 03-06-2005, 02:17 PM After a few years they actually earn me a sizeable amount of income each month. The key is to get names with pretty good type in traffic
brickholius 03-06-2005, 02:22 PM how do you know if they will get type in traffic? wild guesses?
