The criticism has reached a level where it can't be ignored anymore.
And the amount of criticism is definitely not caused by the complaining people.
"And the amount of criticism is definitely not caused by the complaining people"? I don't get you as no tech sites are complaining it's only you.
Someone said Telnames has 3000ish registrations now? so that means they have about 2000-2500 actual customers who would agree that they're on the right path, and is
all they needed in that product bar a few upgrades, as for the original proxy the only thing it doesn't have is a cool theme but you get what you pay for and that's to encourage you/us to ask our registrar to make one via their own proxy or we go elsewhere, and at this time elsewhere is telnames! tomorrow it could be name.com or any other registrar! and should have been along time ago.
I managed to get over the fact cash will go into their pocket though you seem not to have, well that's ok I know where it's going and don't mind as things get done not like with all these other registrars who make stuff up about "potential proxies" to keep the money flowing in, but being continually ignorant of progress doesn't really improve the situation of getting them to talk to us and or making you a happy customer.
It's clear that it was not working to waste time promoting the proxy as a "potential" development platform for them as those registrars and 3rd parties are
NOT INTERESTED, that's not to say no one can make a new proxy as anyone can at anytime they want.
Why should they keep knocking on the same doors if they've all ready said no? it makes
MORE SENSE to build the product their self than to wait on people who just close doors, so they don't talk to you or me or anyone else? and busy themselves building up telnames? well good that's progress and shows how
STUPID the re-seller registrar's are and aren't worth bothering with, which is no wonder they off load telnics support to a 3rd party? is that what they did? because it makes more sense to do that than to waste more of their time when the future of their business as well as yours and other start-ups is at stake.
No one buys into anything without expecting something back, we got telnames and if that's not good enough well good luck with the complaint, but complaining about one proxy where their's 100s of other registrars neglecting 200,000 customers is not right in my eyes.
If anyone's worth attacking it's those 3rd party registrars who don't provide a proxy for their tel customers and just absorb money, we're in 2012-2013 and people are starting to care about where their money goes and this is especially true in the USA, though I get that people have no choice to shop at Walmart because of how it's a parasite on communities by bringing wages down to a bare minimum, but given the choice in the future when they fix their politics I'm sure they'll start shopping elsewhere, and that's what you can do as you have the ability to put pressure on those 3rd party registrars to build one you just need to gather people here in groups by registrar and then start making calls and emails.
Aka grassroot movements, grow something don't weed existing services because you're disagreeing with their progress, I am a telnames customer and you're a customer of idk what registrar so you should focus on your registrar, not destroying the one I use because it's made by the same people who had the original vision.
There has always been room for all sorts of proxies, like every domain via the owners choice or the sponcering registrars "whats it for" .horse .mp3 .music .xxx etc, so as they have the ability to contain any type of content so a tel can do via custom proxies, scientists can have their own as can electricity companies or any other sub interest in how they want to represent information.
It's a free market and I don't see why telnames should not exist as it doesn't effect telnic other than telnic is as I would assume per it's ICANN agreement allowed to choose the best marketing of any 3rd party proxy to promote dot tel the best way it can, and just because it so happens to be telnames at this moment who are the same staff is because no other registrar has stepped up to the plate to do their own.

Telnic wont talk to us because you don't give any leeway and just want to attack, attack, attack everything they do, I'm a happy customer because I'm willing to give up a few things and go back to paying pretty much what I was at the start with "DM" to gain a priority and quality template, other registers still have the ability to entice me with a better service but they choose
NOT TO and telnames chooses to lead the pack because someone has too and who better than those who had the vision at the start?
Telnic can't do everything and when registrars are as ignorant of progress as some older customers can be whom are not willing to accept change then I'm not suppressed they don't talk to us.
That's not to say I like or support everything they do, and as it's a free market I can go anywhere I want at anytime, even if that means making my own telnames type contact card on a basic domain, but at the moment I don't see a need to go anywhere.
