Why not styleforum.com?

post #1 of 25
Thread Starter 
Just curious. Its not a working site. Why the net versus the com? Couldnt you buy out the .com?

.net sounds more rogue-ish.

The real site is big enough on the internet that whoever's squatting on the .com probably wants loads of cash.. and is making a pretty penny off ads displayed to people who type in the wrong address.

styleforum is a network, not a company

hence the .net and not .com

I thought org was reserved for non-profits.

Considering that the .com was registered after this .net, they had the choice to register it as .com but registered .net since this is a network.

I have tried to contact the current owner of the .com and haven't heard back. The last owner let it expire without telling me even though I offered to buy it. If anyone knows how to go about getting a domain that someone isn't paying attention to, please let me know.
