Thread: Rick Latona's new website

So Rick has created a forum dedicated to ccTLDs at ccTLDs.com - Powered by vBulletin

Interesting information listed on cctlds.com, it mentions that some individuals have lost premium .in domains due to questionable indrp rulings. This begs the question, are .in domains safe to own?

Are developed domains more immune to INDRP rulings?

Thanks for sharing. Great to see a general ccTLD forum.

Some interesting thread..

Anyone have stories about losing .in names? - ccTLDs.com

loads of stories about losing .in domains.

They are the most scary investment.

INDRP Dispute Decisions

It is the 'generic' decisions that worry me the most not the blatant TM decisions.

I am all behind the courts upholding blatant TM infringements. In the long run this will only help honest domain investors who stick to finding and developing new property.

More reason to hold LLL and NNN as very few, other than TM's such as KFC & NBA, are on the list. Plus they are more versatile and liquid.

Now the generic 'reverse-hijacking' decisions, those worry me as they smell of corruption and certainly add an element of risk to the .IN game but with Risk comes Reward.

THe upside of the INDRP cases shows that .in has value because why would people fight...and sue over worthless assets? i can't be deterred now from regging good .ins..

By seeing all this, we suggest that if you have any valuable domain then apply for Indian Trade mark and we are here to support you all to get your TM.

Thanks Mitsu for the trademark assistance. What's the procedure and what's the cost?

Also, do you think it's possible corruption may trump trademark? That is, do you think bad (cooupt, etc) decisions will be made even if the site holder has a trademark?
