Luckily we still have an /8 in RIPE (and thanks to the old community members
for that), but 2016-03 cannot make that much change on draining rate. And I
don't think that the pool is that much drained by traders. Yes there is a
percentage drained by traders, but comparing to the actual users that's not
that much to put this kind of restriction. (We also have enough other
restrictions in place)

Yes, thanks to old members who didn’t care about the future of others and made this mess.

Thanks to members like http://ipv4.stil.dk and many many more who requested huge amount of

IP space without a real need, now selling them for profit.

Thanks to traders like Elvis and Ciprian the problem evolved, but they just used an open door and

following the rules.

While some of you are techies in some ISP or even having your own business, working hard for

you, family, employees, making money, some company/IP trader made a huge amount of money in

a short amount of time ‘selling’ IP’s.

You, old members, knew before ’90’s and ’00 that the IP Space will exhaust between 2005 and 2011,

and you still permitted allocations with almost no real proof of needing from the requester/LIR.

This policy will not slow traders, and I think it will really affect the new members that really needed the

IP Spaces.

A policy that tightens the allocation procedure with real verifications might be better.

I do not support this policy
