"This is Wild West, Paul, and you know it. Epik is an order of magnitude more organized than most of the above listed bootstrap experiments with no revenue model and no infrastructure.”

Sorry but am I exposed to think this is ok? It just feels extremely hostile, even though they’re living off the work and ideas of people on OpenNIC.

An update from the founder of Epik... Apparently these are NOT opennic (or other) TLDs, but rather these are all TLDs run directly by Epik.  So what you're saying is that you stole all of the TLD names that have been in use by other roots, in an effort to play on the names and reputations already established,  Good job.

I haven't been able to find any reference to this company in the user list or here on the mailing list, and there doesn't seem to be any T2 servers registered by this company.  So I'm curious what other people think about this practice?  Does anyone know if we've ever officially stated that domains can't be sold or re-sold?
