    .college should be offlimits, to many scams, this space should strictly be enforced.

  3. Michael H. Berkens says

    There is also a separate application for .education and three for .mba, one for .ged

  4. Jim says

    .XYZ is a nice sounding brand, could be applied to anything really. I think he did well in his selections.

  5. Greg says

    I thought if you lost more than a few UDRPs you couldn’t apply. Good luck to Mr. Negari, hope that doesn’t hold him back.

  6. Michael H. Berkens says

    3 UDRP losses, with 1 coming in the last 4 years is a disqualifying factor under the Guidebook for officers, directors or 15% or greater shareholder

    I don’t know what Mr. Negari situation is.

  8. Tom R says

    What are all these new TLD’s going to do to the .com domain aftermarket? Are .com domains going to lose a lot of their value going forward, or are they going to hold their perceived value into the future? Curios to hear people’s opinions.
