	I've heard quite a bit over the past 3 years, from delays in issuing
auth codes and others to force repeating the transfer process, to just
refusing to release domains. And they are squatting on a vast amount of
"parked" domains, like any other sleazy domain squatter, but possibly
the largest. So I've avoided using their service. Here's just a sample
of other people's complaints:
