This Valentine's, Domain Panic Room is looking for new members.
It’s one of the best-kept secrets of domaining:
A secret domain forum, operated by ripe, established members of the domain industry that function under the radar of conferences and chatrooms!
It’s the Domain Panic Room – a domainer society where only VIP members invite others; to be approved by the Guild of Twelve and eventually by the Domain Panic Room webmistress, Linda Honeydrip.
“I wanted to join the Domain Panic Room for months”, says NYC domainer Marcus Warcus.
“At first I thought I’d just email the owner but I was told that unless 3 VIP members vouched for me, I would never be accepted. So I had to do a lot of butt-kissing.”
Marcus managed to get 3 votes from Domain Panic Room members and he was accepted to the Domain Panic Room. At first, he was excited but soon things turned ugly.
“I thought we’d be brainstorming and stuff, you know, like professionals networking and talking about alliances and whatnot. But one day Linda Honeydrip asked me what my favorite color was and apparently I gave her the wrong answer.”
Marcus was soon kicked out and banned for life from the Domain Panic Room, where membership has diminished recently.
Indeed Linda Honeydrip rules the Domain Panic Room like a Roman emperor would once rule Rome; this totalitarian approach to domaining has not phased out the need for new members.
Linda Honeydrip decided that on Valentine’s day most – if not all – new applications will be approved, and is inviting new “blood” to the Domain Panic Room.
“Well, the truth is that some former members call me names and portray me as a really evil person, which I’m not”, says Linda Honeydrip.
“I really am a very sweet person that enjoys a bit of a powertrip at times”, she adds smiling. “But which forum owner does not do that? It’s why we pay the damn vBulletin fees for!”
In order to bypass the “3 VIP vouch” rule, all new applicants must sign an affidavit of allegiance to Domain Panic Room and quit from all other competing domainer forums. They must also close down their blogs, if any, and must sell or drop any non .com domains in their portfolio.
Applications start at 12 noon today – don’t miss it. 😀
