    Why would sulake bother to get a .info domain anyway?

    I mean if they could just take it they might, but i can't see them paying much for it.

    It's more the fact they wouldn't want anyone posing as them, if they took the domain it wouldn't be to use it - it would be to simply make sure that there was no confusion.

    They would hardly pay much though just to avoid confusion surely?

    You'd be suprised. Loads of big companies buy all the domains to avoid this.

    They wouldn't pay anything, they'd scream copyright. Looking at the domain details it's been active a few months, probably as you haven't done much with it. Now you've opened a habbo fansite with it it'll cause you problems - and posting it all over this forum probably wasn't the best idea since we have an active member who is Sulake staff and other staff trawl our forums too

    Sell the domain to Sulake eh? They'd take you to court, as Hecktix said scream copyright and they'd have your site closed down and they'd have that domain no trouble if they wanted it.

    Why not use a unique and original name?

    Good luck with it!

    They don't have to pay anyone, even if the host or domain registrar is offshore. They can just go to the company that manages the .info TLD, scream copyright and boom, you lose your money and domain.

    Sulake won't buy the domain off you, keep dreaming.

    They will just take the domain, and do you even know how to pronounce sulake?
