I’m about 98% certain I went to junior high school and high school with the Stunna. He was a real pr*** back then too, but he’s definitely upped the ante in his adult years.

Thanks for the update.

He deserved to lose the domain, both on legal grounds and on the general laws of stupidity.

He did lose his domain. A blogger reported it. No one else has.

The guy has a press section on his site featuring the crimes he has committed

Yup. Looks like he can add this to his list of “credentials”.

“He should count his lucky stars they offered him 100K because he’s going to get nailed in UDRP arbitration if they go that route.”

The guy has a press section on his site featuring the crimes he has committed – I doubt he is too worried about the UDRP arbitration!

I agree with most people here. Take the money. This your end user you will make 10,000% profit on original purchase. Dont be greedy, the money is good take it and move on to some new domains. Then again this guy doesny sound like a real domainer.

This made me laugh quite hard, this guy could not be more of an idiot. I think we should all vote him “Idiot of The Year”

This guy is more grist for CADNA. He should count his lucky stars they offered him 100K because he’s going to get nailed in UDRP arbitration if they go that route. Unfortunately, if the mainstream press picks up on this story (the AP is already on it) Mr Thiele may find himself becoming the 2008 posterchild of the (gangsta?) cybersquatter. And that’s the last thing we need.
