I don't remember claiming that my domains were worth 7 figures. In fact, I never mentioned any valuation at all. Someone asked for brand names, and I provided brand names. You're assuming that I have a viewpoint I never expressed. Straw man fallacy.

Really? So when you automatically excluded everything but the .COM's you weren't judging the .XXX domains based on the TLD itself? Honestly, I doubt you even looked at the .XXX domains. You presumably just saw that the list contained a TLD you're boycotting and then passed the list through a filter to make a point by interfering in somebody else's business.

2013.com sold on December 4th (2 days ago) at NameJet for $13,760. Look up the Google search volumes for "2011", "2012", and "2013" right now; and you'll have some idea why exact-match years are desirable. The mere fact that I have to explain this to you indicates that you, and not I, are being naive. You're already on record scoffing at the idea of owning a pure calendar year -- even "putting aside the .XXX extension". Clearly you don't get it. There were 343 bids from 302 distinct bidders in the auction for 2013.com. That's 302 people who were willing to pay a lot of money for something you can't even imagine someone wanting to develop -- even "putting aside the .XXX extension"! Obviously calendar years in .XXX are worth less than the .COM. But you didn't even understand why the SLD would have value! Wake up.

I'll stick with adult-related domains. During the summer, I sold Erotica.co.uk for $10,000. That's a matter of public record. Granted it's not a 7-figure sale, but it is substantial enough that I don't find your contemptuous attitude very relevant. People pay me money; so you can sneer as much as you like. Please list YOUR top quality domains.

P.S. Infoguy, this was supposed to be a thread for contributing adult domain ideas. You've offered insults and arguments, but have you actually contributed ANYTHING for the person who originally posted this thread?
