I voted "tapface.com".

Thinking about it for a few seconds, there are a few cool logos that I came up with. Like some ape tap dancing on a clown's face.

And it's fairly easy and catchy to remember.

Uh... sure.  I'm not sure what you're getting at here, but Tapface is pretty cool.

You should have told us about the website content before asking. The name should be catchy, easy to remeber, but also related to the content. Vexdev doesn't say much to the typical user.

So generally, you asked out opinion, and when we told you what we liked, you totally disregarded what we said, then went and registered something else because you thought our choice was kind of un-professional without telling us who your site was directed to with what perpose.

I have a few domain names that I plan on getting. A few that I'm not even going to say here since they're such good deals, you can't even find deals this good anymore. You know why? The government won't allow them anymore because they're too high quality!

I'm getting a decent amount of money back from Cyber Wings, as well as a pretty good-sized check come Friday - thus meaning I can buy a few domains if I'd like to. I have a few in mind, and thinking of others :twisted:

I don't know for sure, they've never said anything as to exactly why they had problems. They've oly told their customers that "they had problems with their connection and other various network componets".

I honestly belive that they just didn't have money to pay for what they needed. They charged too low prices for too much product, and they hurt from that.

That's what I think anyway.

They are alive and kicking now. I'm going to get my money back for my account that I had with them.
