What's the protocol when someone emails you asking you to "give up" the domain you've owned for 25 years because "You're only using it for a blog", and they want to use it for a community they want to build, and they don't want to have "JoinFoo" dot com.

Do nothing? Explain that other TLDs are available? Tell them to "Jog on?"

@popey I'd probably just reply and say: Sure for £10,000,000.

Best case they try to negotiate, worst case they think your nuts.

@intrbiz I think a reasonable amount is £115K. 100K for me, and 5K for the kids and wife who will also be inconvenienced by the email address change. Perfectly reasonable IMO

@popey don't think about the value to you. But the.value to them.
