Asking that a problem be fixed that can cause ill will among our customers
for ourselves and OpenSRS is not hateful nor flaming. Especially when this
problem has been discussed in the past and we were told it would be fixed
before it was a problem.
Guess what? It is now problem time and it has not been fixed.
Calling a manager of the company to task when he attempts to gloss over the
request, as long as it is done in a polite manner, is not hateful.
We do not want our reputation tarred with the same brush that has been used
in this forum against Network Solutions for billing for domains once they
are no longer in Network Solutions. Which will happen if OpenSRS sends
notices to expiration notices to clients that are no longer with OpenSRS or
to clients who's flags have been set to let the domain expire.
A simple solution has been proposed, but not commented on by Charles or
anybody in OpenSRS. Until the problem is fixed, OpenSRS should not send any
expiration notices direct to the client, but rely strictly on their RSPs to
handle this issue.
So far, I have not seen anything hateful in this discussion.
Until you become involved in the discussion. This message of yours is the
only hateful message so far that this topic has generated.
People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. (Don't you just
love these clichés?) :)
Don't send a hateful message accusing others of being hateful when you are
the only one who has stooped that far.
It is not necessary to go to ICANN and spends thousands, there are other
registrars that offer lower prices than OpenSRS. I don't believe price is
the issue here, it's quality of service. Which unfortunately has been
deteriorating lately as OpenSRS has become involved in a large number of
extra activities which has stretched their resources too far.
You should be apologizing to the members of this list, for this email.

This is one of the most hateful discussion lists I am sorry to be required
to take part in.
If you don't like OpenSRS, go to ICANN, spend your $10,000s of thousands
getting approved and do it yourself.
