Good luck on your site!

Hopefully there will be not be any confusion with your site and the one we are about to launch “Home Haunt Association”.

We have been working on our new site “Home Haunt Association” for several months that will be a “members only” association dedicated to the home haunter.

We have been very quiet about this project so not to “let the cat out of the bag” in order to provide the best benefits possible (pre-mature announcements are bad).

I thought that I should bring this to your attention since we will be launching soon and we have similar names. After many months of planning we finally confirmed the name on December 20 when we registered the domain.

Once again, just wanted to let you know of this project since it has similar names.

(Watch for upcoming announcements)

Thanks much!

I removed the quote that you found offensive as I could see how it could read that way.

Thanks.

I'm not directly associate with the HomeHauntersAssociation (although I have posted there). I met the webmaster in Las Vegas last March at the Transworld convention and he described his plans for his site. I found him sincere and helpful. He even offered to help me design a page describing the crate monster I am building! IMHO, he is provide a site which complements forums such as this (which I read religiously) in that it provides permanent a directory of home haunts and links to suppliers for amateur prop builders (my primary interest).

I can understand the desire of the as yet unannounced site to establish a distinct identity. However, I find the following quote objectionable:

"quote removed by admin"

That certainly sounds like a "bash/or attack" to me. How is one supposed to know that another group has unannounced plans to establish a site with a name similar to another domain-name they have not registered? In any case, I hope both sites will be useful additions to the haunting community.
