Abuse would not only be blatantly apparent, but should have stiff penalties... Not only that, but if abuse happens to arise, remove that reseller's ability to place domains on hold, and instead allow them to contact support as is done presently. -- `Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting `Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore! Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken! Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door! Take thy beak from out my heart, and take tha form from off my door! Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
