We should be a .org? Interesting take
In Response To: Outclassed in many ways ()

You are saying that the association should be a .org, not a .com. Back in 1994 when I first got into this business, I absolutely would’ve agreed with you. Back then, .com’s were commercial Enterprises, .net’s were network providers, and .orgs were nonprofits.

I would love to find an affordable CCA.something domain but I’ve searched and none that are appealing are available or reasonably priced. So, we continue with our .com just fine., with or without your approval.

What’s interesting about you bringing this up is that you’ve stated repeatedly that pokerchipper.com is not a for-profit venture, and I don’t doubt that. So why did you register your domain as a .com? Seems a bit hypocritical of you to claim to be on the same financial level as us but DENIGRATE our status without checking the mirror first.

That’s not gaslighting. That’s enlightening. Everything I tell you is enlightening.

You love everything I’ve ever said to you. Now THAT is gaslighting.

Onto debunk your next post. Peace out my friend.
