Did you check the whois prior to them dropping?

Maybe cross check that with their ABN. etc

 

[findtim]

no, i only saw them after the drop, i'm not interested in the domains, just the reason why so many .net.au 's with a common theme would be PD

Had you done a whois you may be some the wiser.

 

[findtim]

ok, so throw me a bone here and take a guess, its obviously a significant drop on PD domains so i guess my question is in what "types" of circumstances does this occur. the domain name doesn't matter in this question

Client request delete.

 

[findtim]

ok, so why bother, they aren't getting any money back, they are now all available for registration.

most Policy Delete are auDA deletions usually for non compliance with the eligibility policy, to a lesser extent misspelling policy and monetisation policy deletions also occur.

As pointed out, often registrants ask their registrar to delete domains, they are client requested deletes
