On another note of that whole topic, if you think such a stupid tactic is going to "drum up business" then you don't give your fellow bemani players that much credit. If someone is looking for DJ Dao's website and ends up being redirected to Desktop Arcade's site then obviously they're going to go wtf and try again. I'm really surprised Dao didn't grab up the name when the site was opened to begin with since djdao.com is a hell of alot easier to remember than whatever it is now.

So how about stop acting like a fan boy about it and let Dao's owner, sorry I'm terrible with names and don't really give much of a shit about their stuff so long as they aren't starting shit with us, take of this himself.
I'm not a 'fanboy' for respecting dao's business. You're sure quick to jump to using shitty buzzwords to attack me like that. If, for example, you typed in wal-mart.com instead of walmart.com and were directed to Target's webpage (obviously an example), there would be something seriously wrong with that. It's a bad business practice to snipe addresses similar to a competitor's.

Sure, Dao should have picked up on a few other similar domain names, but I'm not him and I can't speak for him about that part. Do you think Steve would think it's as funny if Dao were to register http://www.desktop-arcade.com/?

If anyone here is jumping the gun and judging before thinking, it's you.
