You know what I meant, but hey- Go fuck yourself.

Looked at your blog in cache and its near worthless so I really wouldn't fret that much about the fact its gone. You can probably replace it with something of a similar caliber by spending $50 on digitalpoint anyways. I am sure there's a Indian there to accommodate you.

you're not only too dumb to recognize the worth of a trusted domain, you are also too dumb to see what amount of work you need to put in to get the domain there where it is today.

// Anyway:

I didnt get the domain back. The guy probably got scared and has now pointed the nameservers back to my hosting. Guy is telling me that he cant do much bc. of the 60 day icann period. Even though I have those NS pointing to the right server now, im still not confortable. Plus, Godaddy's president office is going to look into this asap. So we'll see.

LOL, you dont really understand that this blog is not my source of income? Those banners cost like 25€ a month, you can have one yourself. Quit being a bitch.

He could just be stalling to limit your options with GD or he may be telling the truth. Why not open a free account at the new registrar and get him to push the domain to you so at least you have it, the hold is only for transfers between different registrars. You can worry about transferring to your registrar of choice yourself in 60 days.
Also he looks pretty young, maybe you could track down one of his parents emails and get him into shit with them.
 
for everyone who cares: I got the domain back. I had to create an account at the new registrar and got it transferred to my user id so that we can bypass the 60 day cancellation period.. thx godaddy and everyone in this thread <3 you guys

The domain itself is not entirely worthless either.

PR3, and in Alexa's top 100K.
Definitely not the cat's pyjamas, but it'd be easy enough to sell in the right places if the site was included.

Hey Man! I am glad you got back your stuff. I was going to suggest to get on a plane and fly to where ever this little bastard lives and administer the People's Elbow to the Throat. That might help the situation. Or maybe not.

Seems like he went through alot of trouble for a otherwise worthless domain.

Honestly, who steals a blog?

I don't think he intentionally targetted the site. The Google Filter trick was a CSRF vunerability so providing you were already logged into gmail (or a least had a valid cookie on your computer), you only needed to view a web page with the code in it to have the filter auto create.
