Hi Susan,
Exactly my point, he should just hand over the .org URLs since they are
theoretically non-commercial in nature.

If Remedy had remained a stand alone company, those prices MAY be
justified. As it is... he has been paying to maintain the domain names
for however long he has had them for no real reason.
I understand that Bing is a well known and respected member of the
Remedy community, but what he is
The FTC forbids using registered trademarks in domain names for
commercial websites unless you are the owner of the trademark. Period.
If you use one of these it is quite possible (no idea how likely...) you
would get a registered, hand delivered piece of mail telling you to

William, I agree with you about the FTC restrictions, but how is
Remedyinsertword.com different than Arslist.com? Don't they both
refer to trademarked product names?
I don't think anyone anticipates BMC sending Dan a CD letter about the
ARSList, but from a legal perspective, it seems that they
Really there's no difference. I think the owners are entirely at the
mercy of BMC's legal department. And as much as I like BMC I know legal
departments think in ways different than the rest of us...
Keep in mind that Daniel Bloom and the other similar owners of
Remedy-related domains have (to
Well in this climate of trying to 'socialize' everything (which I am not in

I do run/maintain the remedyusergroups.com domain. have had it registered

and is there solely for the use of the community. If BMC were to take issue
with it, I would work with them to come to an agreeable
Agreed on all counts - and I've been to your site numerous times myself
of course. I'm pretty sure BMC would count you among the good guys.
I would just hate to see someone buy that domain, do a 301/302 re-direct

This is not always the case. For example, if someone registered
remedysucks.com and used it to sell T-shirts with smart alec quips about
things they don't like about Remedy, I think it would be legal under the first
amendment. In that case, they are mocking the product, which is a form of
I know this is the case right now and is covered under fair use but I
don't think there's been a good test case so far.
In any case...that's kind of outside the scope of this conversation. I
just wanted people to be aware of the risks.

Interesting results:
Do a generic google search for BMC - you will find lots of companies
that use BMC to describe themselves.
Also try googling...
inurl:bmc.com inurl:www.
Then try:
inurl:remedy.com inurl:www.

that you can find in a dictionary.

Don't they already have Budweiser? Worked for me many years ago (though

Buying a beer is generally not a good practice. I would suggest a 6-Pack at a

Over the past few years ITM3 California has quietly amassed a collection of
Remedy-themed internet domains. But since our business is growing in
decidedly non-Remedy areas, we've decided to sell or lease most these
domains.
Some of the more interesting .com domain names include:

There is a term for this type of collection, but I cannot remember this and
I have always questioned the ethics of a company or person that does it.

Hi Bing,
Well instead of being a cyber capitalist come on down to WWRUG09 and auction
off the URLs
and donate the proceeds to charity.
Hmm, RemedyUserGroup.org, think that is really ARSlist and WWRUG??
(or perhaps Matt Reinfeldt would like to claim it since he hosts a bunch).
Hand it over bud
I do own www.RemedyUserGroups.com http://www.remedyusergroups.com/ which
Matt hosts and uses for all user groups that are interested. Matt does all
the work !!
