Our wings are not tired.

Ah. Well it looks like they won't be back anyway.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

vampireslayer.biz was not owned at the time of my posts last night.

NSI tells you to make an offer to the owner. Register.com does not. Domaindiscover does not. UNLEASHEDDOMAINS does not. So even if they'd both been in their nefarious pockets at the time of post ... I don't see how that's spammy.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Register.com does not.

Yes, they do. Minimum bid is $200 through them.

Sorry. I didn't notice that.

However, the assertion that they were selling something they didn't own (the .biz) still strikes me as odd.

The idea that the post could be taken at face value does not seem naive to me.

The response was very unequivocal to something that was ambiguous at best.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

So, we're not changing our URL to vampireslayer.biz, then?

vampireslayer.tv might still be open. We could totally do that.

What is even happening?

I think Plei owns that one.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

We should get noneofyour.biz.
