    It’s worst, etang in french is a singular word that means a small salted lake.
    So I am also curious of the buyer motivations.

    Was my prior comment purposely blocked?

    I’d just like to know.

    Thanks.

    Never mind, maybe something happened.

    My comment was that I don’t speak French but Reece Berg does
    and he says on his blog today that Etang actually means “little Lake”
    with a meaning similar to the word “Pond” in English.

    He also wonders if the Bidders actually knew what they were bidding on.

    i.e. “Pond” instead of “Lake”.

    Link here:

    and
    on his blog today he asks “Is Etang worth the $35,603 it sold on NameJet for?”

    Just to be clear we do not ‘block” comments, but anytime you put a link in your comments, it has to be manually approved, its the only way I can keep the spam and crap out.

    Hi,

    Understood.

    Would it be okay to put a reference link that’s not active like
    TheDomains.com?

    Obviously I was not promoting anything which I know you realize.

  6. Tony says

    I have to say it: industryresearch.com for $2,401?

    A rare $10K name that Namejet bidders fell asleep on.

    It’s not a question of promoting or not promoting, its a question of protecting the blog from getting hundreds of spam comments every day, if I don’t auto reject any comment or post with a link, mine, your or otherwise

  8. Patrick McDermott says

    MHB,

    I understand.

    The problem was I did not get the notice “Your comment is awaiting moderation”.

    Then when I saw Francois’ post but not mine it made me wonder if I had done or said something.

    But all cleared up and understood.

    Thanks.
