I wonder if PMI will see that?  Maybe they'll learn something.

Prosper missed me.  They lifted my suspension a day early.

This part seems very interesting:

Question: What is Reverse Domain Name Hijacking?

Answer: Trademark owners may not file complaints just to harass domain name holders. Under the Policy, trademark owners who file complaints in bad faith are said to have engaged in "Reverse Domain Name Hijacking." It is considered an abuse of the administrative proceeding and the Panel can enter such a finding in the record to warn others about such a trademark owner.

Isn't Prosper harrassing (or singling out in bad faith) ProsperReports? Given that they are not going after other domain names containing the word 'Prosper' ?

ETA - added 'in bad faith'.
