No, that is not me smiling devilishly in the photo, although it does bear some resemblance! I'd like you all to meet "Domiana"; a remarkable and beautiful woman born on "Planet Host." I came to know Domiana through a series of my own unfortunate domain hijackings, and we have become good friends. She's smiling because she's about to gorge on her favorite thing...."domain thugs (a.k.a. "domain thieves"). Domiana loves all kinds of domain thugs! She loves them tall, short, fat or slim; professional or amateur; career or hobbyist. It doesn't matter to her because Domiana unfortunately lost her Name Parents when she was very young, and doesn't exactly know where she fits in. As a young domainette, she had hopes of growing up to be the next big domain registrar, or even Google, never imagining that she'd be orphaned as a small child. Now, as she grows old and time passes, she only wishes for one thing. She wishes to find someone to marry; someone to complete her; someone who will steal their weight in famous domains just for her....who will risk serious consequences for her, and who will hijack valuable three letter domains and place them on her pillow while she sleeps. She's desperate for someone to make her famous by stealing these top level three letter domains that will sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars on ebay! It's unfortunate, but her misaligned childhood has offered Domiana little or no self esteem and she often seeks comfort in these subversive partners. She is just too set in her ways to change.
My sympathy goes out to Domiana, and so I have created this Blog in an attempt at finding Domiana true love, before she expires. I'd like Domiana to find her soulmate, um, thief, no matter how criminal he may be, before the law gets out of hand and begins throwing her prospective matches in jail! I fear that day is coming soon, hence, time is of the essence. Please, help me to help Domiana by sharing any experiences you've had with a thug that might be worthy of Domiana's love. Please be as brief, but detailed as you can, so that Domiana can begin to compile a list of exciting suitors from which she can eventually choose her soulmate. After she reads your submissions, she will pick her top domain thieves, and eventually choose one to ask for his hand in marriage. Her plans are to have a Lawyer write up her nuptuals, and then for a Judge to marry them. She may even need the police to control the well wishing, but losing thugs, who just didn't make it to the first date. Her invitees, of course, will be all the new friends she's made here on "Bad Domain Thief." After all, it's the least she could do to say "thank you" for your generous support and advice.
You will know if your domain thief sets off a sparkle for Domiana, as her replies will reflect it. Please be true to Domiana and expose only real life situations and domain thefts. This is serious business, as Domiana has spent several thousand dollars already for her preliminary pre-nuptials and anticipates even more for the wedding! She asks that you be as forthcoming as you can by listing where her hopefuls live (if you know), as much of their name as you care to divulge, how you came to know them, and a list of the attractive domains they have creatively stolen. The stolen domain list is very important to her, as she will make her final decision based on that. Yes, she is a bit of a "domain digger", but so what, aren't we all?
Please bear with us as we learn to navigate and grow our new blog territory. Wishing you all good luck in helping Domiana find her true thug, and in doing so, exposing the crime of domain theft. Through this blog I am hoping to incite legislation to enact remedies to protect victims of this often overlooked, but very serious felony. Enjoy the fantasy!
