Re: [ga] expired domains and questionable registrar practices...

[Hugh Dierker <hdierker2204@xxxxxxxxx>]

Where were you when Jeff argued about process? Where were you except complaining about Danny when we argued about linguistics? Your comments are notable but you eat in the kitchen of hired help when it comes to prinicple. SS you seem to care when it suits you. But not at all when it suits another. Read the email? It tells you that you are a nignogg and entitled to diddlysquat because you are a deadbeat and do not pay your bills. These types of complaints from people who do not pay their bills are worthy of gladbag garbage bag storage in a dumbster.
 
Next I suppose we are going to tax us all to pay for your domain sensibilities. What business is it of yours what someone does with something that you defaulted on?

I had a domain registration that expired some time ago (as in over 1 
year ago). Can someone explain to me why the registrar GO DADDY 
SOFTWARE, INC. has not yet had the domain deleted from the registry?

When I do a whois query on the name, here's what I get:
-------------------
Whois xxxxxxxxx.com

GO DADDY SOFTWARE, INC.
Domain Name: xxxxxxxxx.com

The results below are provided by GO DADDY SOFTWARE, INC. 
(whois.godaddy.com)

No match for "xxxxxxxxx.com" in the registrar database.
--------------------

I'd like to re-register the name now, but I cannot. Would someone 
please let me know why the registrar in question has not submitted 
the domain for deletion? Are they perhaps hoping someone will 
backorder the domain, thereby increasing their registration profit 
margin? What exactly is going on here? I'm also sure that this is 
not an isolated case as I've seen it with other domains.

Will anyone from ICANN or GoDaddy care to explain?
