You know, I just find it insane that some expired domains just wont be released.
I know from a friend, who is monitoring several domains for quite a while, that (especially Network Solutions) registrars are a huge pain in the arse when it comes to releasing expired domains...
And then WHEN they release it (grace period) they hold it till they have enough domains to delete from their database (batch deletion...) which can also take upto 3 months!
This is just INSANE!!
I've just seen a domain that was due to expire Feb 2001!!
And the weird thing is, that there is no such thing as "the big boss" that controls everything, and who can give penalties for such things... So basically, registrars can just do whatever the hell they want!!
How do you feel about this?
