The charming stalkery persistence of Register.com

chrismohney:

Registered a few domains on Friday. Searched a few more. Within 90 seconds I got an email acknowledging the purchased domains, including a discount code for my  next purchase. Within 20 minutes I got an email noting some of the domains I’d searched but not bought, including another discount code to insure I didn’t let those unbought domains “get away.” Two hours later I was browsing another website and a Register.com banner ad came up; sensing a browser cookie from my login at Register.com, the banner reminded me of the domains I’d searched but not bought, again imploring me to reconsider not buying them. And today, a Register.com customer service rep called me at work to ask, again, if maybe I’d like to buy some of those domains? This is real flattering and all, but please, Register.com, I’m a happily married man and just not really looking to fool around with egolista.com right now, okay?

Wait… Let me try that again. I want to be on you.
