Way too many horror stories from adult webmasters about them.

And, I have a pretty good friend that works there & even he thinks they suck

I wonder if their expensive ads work. I admit, They were the first thing that popped into my mind when it came time to register. But I ended up going with name cheap and name silo. Seemed easier to register and not as much confusing attempts to up sell.

Incompetent, lack of security, corrupt. Pity the fool who uses them.

(I am actually stuck with them, so pity me! Years ago a registrar I used ceased trading and ICANN transfered my domains from them to GoDaddy. I had a domain privacy thingy that GoDaddy also took on, it was passworded and they sent me a password. Because of the horror stories I had already heard I wanted to change registrar, to do so I had to cancel the privacy deal. I tried - password incorrect. I contacted GoDaddy's customer service department, they told me that they had "accidentally" sent me the wrong password, but for security reasons could not let me know what the correct password is. Every year they refuse to renew the domain unless I also renew the privacy, so I am locked in. Until I can guess what password they gave me, I cannot escape their service without loosing domains!)

I just canceled some domains with them, one of which was a private. They had me send them a picture of my passport, and get a letter from the IRS confirming my business identity. I jumped through both hoops and successfully canceled the domain. I was mindful of an earlier thread you posted 'ecchi', so I was ready to go the distance with them. In the future I'm using 'namecheap'
