How about paper proofs that spell out the details of the conduit accounts? Or your judgment was based on the fact that he isn't fluent? Emefiele was the silly one here.

Don't save important files on that drive; SSD ain't that cheap... You're told.

noobody:
Have you tried filling it up to test real capacity,I wouldn't trust it as my only back up thou,it might lost important data.

olisefom:
I must commend his recent moves.

There's a sharp difference between him and our former president that used to express "shock" after decades of crippling issues.

yolada:
And also please, when paying for a domain on godaddy, what do type in the tax ID section?

yolada:
Newbie here
Please when purchasing a domain on godaddy, is it advisable to include full domain protection or should I just leave it? Does it really matter?

MostImportant:
If I had come up with this, I would probably not have registered it, thinking it won't sell but look at how much it's put for sale. Over N350m. Mad cash. I guess interested buyers must have been bargaining for him to raise the price to this.

YoobaNesan:
I'm still not comfortable with this line.

You reach out to a potential end user and make them aware that there's a name out there that'll be very good for their business should they'll like to have it.
If interested, you go on, if not, you back out.
And If it's a wise end user, he reg it and you lose...and if a crazy end user, he still congratulate you for letting him know

I agree it's a very bad practise for a domainer, but calling it fraudulent[i], I'm very uncomfortable with that[/i]!

I think it's just trying to play safe.

YoobaNesan:
I don't believe so, it's just not of best practise, because what is even worse than that, 'domain tasting' is not considered fraudulent but a bad practise.

Domainer1999:
I don't want to respond to you claims because I know you're a boss here.

But, always resist the urge to go overboard.
These are what discourage people from contributing here.

I'd like you to unquote me.
Thanks.

Sales Alert

Octtopus/ com
SP 1500
Afternic offer
Regged 10 months ago at drop for 6.95$
Sales date May 31st initial bin was 3500 na copy I dey do with pricing

Story time

Come and see new tactics this buyer used....he opened afternic account and regged Mr Octtopus same day he/she place the offer and put it for sale for 1200$ ....he/she did it so I will think he/she is a domainer and a newbie at that cause the names he/she has in their portfolio is complete rubbish..... screenshot below....the person did it so I will think they aren't serious ......

They sent offer 6 days ago 1500$ I reject they sent 1800 I reject they sent 400,500,1300..I kept rejecting..and countering close to my bin ..this went on for hours...I swear it got so tiring even afternic rep tell me they think it's fake offer...after they won't stop bothering and kept resending 1500 even tho I kept trying to make am move up like they did before they no gree...giving me headache....me I just accepted the 1500 since I felt it was a fake offer make they just gettat and afternic to ban the account when he/she doesn't pay.. so after 6 days of accepting the person pay I was shocked and surprised...

Also the domain had fast transfer on but since it was offer I had to transfer manually mhmm I never knew that...


I know I shoulda accept the 1800 but who cares jare it don go.... I do have another octopus sounding domain and its even better so I didn't have issue letting this go..its not that good...I shall miss the domain but not that much

Reason I regged this name was I first checked to make sure..

Ooctopus
Occtopus
Octoopus
Octoppus
Octopuus
And octopuss were all regged and in use ..they were porn sites lol.....I don't really reg this kind of double letter things unless they are very good .this was good enough I guess....the way I set my Ed filter nowadays sef I won't see this kinds of domains anymore

Ps: I had 420 domains last year newbie things ..we dey rush reg. This is why it's nice for newbies to have someone to guide them but eventually you need to find your own path cause names I hate have sold alot....over 250 of my domains don expire now lmao....I am letting the bad ones go my portfolio might turn 70 soon sef...trying to focus on quality since I don run comot outbounding...

Compared to last year when I reg like 35 domains a month with borrowed money lol.....now I only reg like 3 a month....but I check Ed every single day.....no bi say names aren't good oh but I too dey judgemental nowadays I can't waste money anymore....most old members don't pick names they can't sell above 3000$ or 10k$ .....so even tho they see a name that's good if it's not bringing big money they leave am..which is were we come and take lol

All glory to amadioha and 666 lmao I wan find trouble

concacid:
It's okay.

I go with Buba Marwa. That man is doing well with NDLEA.

thesicilian:
You know nothing about journalism business. And you're obviously still languishing in the pains of the electoral defeat because Tinubu is not the one who is saying he could be sacked, I did. Third, I'll bet you that that guy will be sacked by his station before the end of the year if he doesn't become more professional.

lomprico:
Suffering 3.0 has begun.
We don see 'shege' finish, now 'Dan buro uba' don start.

eduevolutionnow:
Really!!
When we attack people that drop half bake sales report that wont benefit newbies, the same newbies come out to attack us. They want to be gingered by anything. Make i ginger them in my own small way.

Average9jaman:
Na wa o! This year will not pass me by without making a sale Lord.
