Nearly 29,000 followers, yet virtually NO visible posting history?
THIS DOESN’T ADD UP!
This has all the appearances of a FAKE ACCOUNT with FAKE FOLLOWERS.
Something smells like BULLSHIT!
@NameGremlinHQ, can you explain how you accumulated 28,700 followers with so little visible activity?
The numbers are right there.
LET’S HEAR.
Thank you!
The adult industry wouldn't put up with a faker like this for one minute. The domain industry embraces it!
Start paying attention to this BULLSHITTER right now!
FRAUD OR REAL? WHICH IS IT?
YOU DECIDE!

“Speculation isn’t proof.” Correct. Now answer the question.
How did you build an audience of 28,000 followers? What content attracted them, and over what period?
That’s your account. You should be able to explain its growth.
A laughing emoji isn’t an explanation.
It's a dodge, and you're doing it in front of the entire industry. Don't be a wise guy. wise up!
@senthilrajendrn Let me see their credentials.
Anyone making pronouncements one way or the other have little to base it on, There's just not enough information yet.
Let it unfold and time will tell the story.
Some people are threatened when something comes to suck the oxygen out of the room.
Nope!
Only true of perishable domains, tech that has expired, meaningless gTLD's and pigon shit to begin with.
Once in a while, we gamble and it doesn't pay off. They didn't rot. They are seeds that never germinated or were never seeds to begin with.
When you pick right,they don't rot.
Rick's FIRST EVER MOCK AUCTION.
10 names from the small portfolio I’ve assembled in less than 30 days:
1.Cleopatra .si
2.Michelangelo .si
3.Casanova .si
4.DonJuan .si
5.Valentino .si
6.Biometrics .si
7.Streamers .si
8.Deductive .si
9.Collections .si
10.Introductions .si
For EACH domain, give me TWO prices:
What would YOU pay for it as a domain investor, using your own money?
If you owned it, what would YOU ask an end user to pay?
What would you BUY it for?
What would you SELL it for?
And don’t be a wise guy! 🚫
Give it some thought.
If you post to disrupt, consider it your last. 🚫
This is an exercise only. Nothing is being sold. No binding bids. No auction winner.
The point is to show what someone can assemble in less than 30 days in the domain industry when they know what they’re looking for.
These 10 names are a sample of that portfolio.
If I had to start all over again, with only the small portfolio I’ve put together in the last 30 days, I believe I’d be just fine.
I’d still need patience, a plan & execution. But I’d have something to work with.
The experience, judgment & eye that built my original portfolio would come with me.
So, let’s see your numbers.
I’m not suggesting or recommending that anyone build on a .SI at this point.
I’m watching for the anchor tenants. The companies that move in, invest, build, and give people a reason to show up.
Until that happens, you have to understand that building there could be a long slog. Maybe adoption comes quickly. Maybe it takes years. Maybe it never develops the way you expect.
A major company moving in could change the picture dramatically. But you can’t build your entire plan around assuming it’s about to happen.
Don’t move prematurely. Don’t exhaust your money, energy, and patience before the market even gets started.
That’s why I keep saying:
TIMING IS EVERYTHING.
Think about how much of life depends on it.
In the stock market, two people can buy the same stock and have completely different results because of when they buy and when they sell.
In real estate, you can recognize where a city will grow and still arrive decades before the roads, customers, and commerce.
In technology, a product can be brilliant and still struggle because the infrastructure, habits, or demand haven’t caught up.
In business, you can hire too soon, expand too fast, launch too early, or wait until the opportunity has passed.
A farmer understands planting season. A retailer understands the holiday season. A restaurant owner understands the difference between opening before the neighborhood arrives and opening when the neighborhood is hungry.
Trains. Planes. Appointments.
A head-on collision. A near miss.
Sometimes a few seconds change a life.
Baseball, basketball, and football make timing easy to see. But it matters just as much when you’re buying an asset, launching a company, or deciding when to commit time & money.
You can have the right idea, the right name, and the right ambition, yet still have the wrong timing.
Buying a domain and building a business on it are two different decisions. They don’t have to happen on the same day, in the same month, or even in the same year.
For me, it was 30 years before the moment became right.
I can acquire a name because I see a possibility. That doesn’t mean I believe the market is ready for a business on it today.
The acquisition clock and the development clock can run on different schedules.
Know which clock you’re watching.
Give yourself enough runway to wait, enough discipline to watch, and enough energy to move when the evidence supports it.
Don’t burn yourself out waiting for the starting gun.
TIMING IS EVERYTHING!!
You make the money on the buy.
That's where the money is made. You just cash in on the sale or the build
My best pick ups of the day.
Introductions .si $45
Oralsexsi $30
Hoses .si $70
You’re using the name I’ve built my reputation under for 30 years. People are already flagging your account to me as an impersonator.
“I am who I am” doesn’t address that.
Change the name. Remove my branding from your account. This will not stand.
