DOMAIN name Pit. This guy -- in my town -- stole my name. WTF?

When does it expire? If you do nothing, you may be able to get it for free, since I doubt he’d re-up if he hasn’t heard a peep from you.

According to the OP, the guy originally registered it in 2003. Presumably, he’s been renewing it every year since then.

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who didn’t understand how CBS was involved.

Sorry for not getting back, it’s been kind of a mess the last few days. I work for CBS and as an on-air person my concern was that if this guy tried something funny, CBS would sue him and end up owning my name. It felt like a violation at the time but honestly there are so many other important things for me to be doing right now, I reckon I’ll just play it cool with Rocky.

Sailboat: ding ding ding we have a winner! :smiley: Thanks.

I have nothing to add but…damnit there are a lot of Dopers in Junction…

If you have nothing to add, why did you resurrect a thread that’s been dead for two and a half months? :confused:

'Cause the as soon as Obama became president elect they mysteriously found the Necronomicon… just a coincidence I’m sure… but either way SOMEONE had to test it out.

Well, www.cairocarol.com is safe for now. But at www.my-name-IRL.com, I am a real estate agent. Who knew?

His lawyer got it in discovery.

Legal briefs, and all that. :slight_smile:

Seriously, register his name with .org, .net, .us, or whatever he may have missed. Offer to trade, even-steven.

See what you made me do. Now I am sad I am not me.

My continual annoyance is that, despite both of my names being somewhat unusual and the combination being moreso because of that, there’s a trumpet player in Colorado with my name and the URL. Admittedly, he can probably put it to better use than I so I can’t get too worked up. But it irks me nonetheless.

I should have kept up trumpet, clearly.

I’m the only me there is. Not only by this handle, but by the others I use. There ain’t many with my real name, either.

Handy being Irish-Jewish.
