Title: the Twitter , domain , forum name you wanted is already taken , what do you do?
Post by: BlacksmithCorporation on March 27, 2015, 03:21:34 AM

 I have this one name , I can snatch the domain it looks cheap someone is auctioning it , I also might get the bitcointalk name since people sell their accounts. But I like outlook as email and its already taken and twitter handle is already taken too. What would you suggest?

I suggest finding another name that isn't taken.  Much cheaper.

Would probably just find an alternate for the ones that are already taken or a suffix/prefix to add to them. That or try to come up with a more unique name that wasn't already taken.

 It is actually pretty unique because the website is going for a cheap amount of money and not that many people interested in it . The only twitter user with it unfortunately has abandoned twitter and no hope for me to get it now . So it is not actually that widespread , actually if you tell the name to people , many won't know what it means. It is in latin and could be relevant to bitcoin A LOT .

If it is a matter of just wanting the name (and only if the names matter that much) than contact them and negotiate a price.  Might get them cheap if the people are amiable enough but you won't know until you communicate.

If you are looking to resell then I agree with the above posters.  Finding another name is the better bet.  Sometimes the internet is not worth the hassle (though it is, generally...what am I saying?)...

Edit - I posted after the above post - it sounds like a pickle.  Good luck.

Don't be afraid to use up your entire life savings in the pursuit of the ultimate internet username. If they want your first born son too, give it to them! ::)

 Well I would gladly give my first born but I am not sure about the life savings.

There are some ways to claim a Twitter name if the account is not used updated for a long time.
