Then let me establish myself as a newbie webmaster who had missed the discussions on godaddy. I registered a domain with them recently the day after received a sales phone call.
They girl identified herself and proceeded to "establish that I understood" the options on my domain name.
Her first question was why I had chosen a server other than godaddy's.
I responded that the server hosting the domain was experienced in the needs of the adult industry and webmaster.....silence.
No sale on the GoDaddy Hosting.
Next question is that she noticed I had a public whois..."Did I understand exactly what that meant especially since I dealt in adult content?"
I replied yes, and that in fact in the adult industry hiding your whois often meant you were up to no good.....silence.
No Sale on the private whois option.
At least replying you are a porn mistress will get them off the line.
I am looking suggestions for registrars for the 2 domain names I am registering today, if they don't give you telephone solicitors too!

Ive always used go daddy and never had any problems

Seriously though I have a few domains left there, the reason I used them in the first place a few years back was the ease of use, management of the domains etc. and ease of locking them and that sort of stuff. We dont get the ads here for them. I read the posts about the problems people were having with them, but it also comes down to slackness to transfer a bunch of domains, the extra cost etc. I only have a few there now and have not regd an new ones there for years, so I guess it has sunk in, the bad stuff I've read. Anything new now, I use name cheap, I havent heard too many things bad about them.
