| Nov 2, 2015 at 17:37 | comment | added | Wesley | So as not to bother Iain further, I'll mention this here rather than on Iain's answer: A large majority of active ServerFault users voted to bring Sven in as a moderator, and his views on what is and is not on-topic were plainly stated at the time of his election run. Same with all other ServerFault moderators. If Sven closed it outright, and also no other moderator chose to re-open, then consider that a majority-consensus. This is, however, ignoring the fact that five ServerFault users voting to close a question would also be considered a professional consensus by StackExchange thought. | |
| Nov 2, 2015 at 12:00 | comment | added | Reaces | @Vek.M1234 I think we just have fundamentally different opinions on what is important when choosing a registrar. As long as you stick to one of the larger players, the only thing I really care about are: how is their interface / what is their customer support like. I can't imagine choosing a registrar that ends up getting an ICANN breach notice. Those that do are generally not large, public, corporately used registrars. | |
| Nov 2, 2015 at 8:38 | comment | added | user176193 | Do any of the websites list the methods they use to gather data? The only site that I found was this guy (fairly awesome analysis and really useful): blog.legitscript.com/2015/01/… unfortunately he says: "were able to grab a good chunk of them for analysis — just over 7,000." without describing how he was able to grab so many records and since its 2015 it's unlikely to be a zone transfer. Hence my question. (of course it contradicts the so called experts here, but end of the day he provides me with useful info) | |
