Possible Unauthorized Use of Logo

[Longo_2_guns]

Just got word. No lawyers. Happy time love-in instead.

That makes me happy. Unless you're lying. And I can tell when you are.

 

[danielrbischoff]

... Can you tell now?

Only madster the pirate would take sides with the property thief.

Didn't say it was cool, just said it was technically legal.

Maybe in Australia.

Dan, tell us the whole story.

 

[danielrbischoff]

They're too small and they're not worth the trouble. What do they stand to gain from ripping off the logo anyway? If it were any bigger then yes, it'd be an issue, but as it stands it's not worth the legal fees to send a cease and desist or whatever. That's really the whole story. Thank you to VictorSledge for bringing it to our attention. I wonder if he could tell us more. Did you talk to the people working in the shop?

The big shock was how blatant it was. Madster you're stupid.

 

[TheJx4]

You really wouldn't be able to sue. It's like Delta Force's lawsuit against Activision.

but...it really doesn't make sense...Color Revolution?
I don't even.

and what did they say about some stranger taking random pictures?

 

[Sightless]

Ask them to buy you a Wii, Dan.

 

[danielrbischoff]

I'll save up whatever "ask them to buy me" credit I have for a Wii U.

Why not get something worthwhile out of it?

I should call them and be like "yeah....You know you're using a registered logo? Registered to someone other than you." I just want to hear their response is all.

 

[danielrbischoff]

That's what I'm wondering. Like I wonder if Victor told them he knew where the logo is from. I wonder if they read the site.

 

[Sightless]

They also write GR fanfic.

 

[GRColin]

They also write GR fanfic erotica.

Fixed.

 

[Longo_2_guns]

They also write GR fanfic erotica.

Well who doesn't?

 

[danielrbischoff]

So much Longo/MattAY slash fiction.

 

[MattAY]

"Fiction" isnt the word

 

[UghRochester]

So, Victor is the owner of Color Revolution and just wanted to bring it to GR's attention to help Color Revolution gain popularity.

 

[TheJx4]

I still can't get past the name...

 

[Bretimus_v2]

It's New England area...everything has Revolution in it.

Referring the to Color part...I don't get it.

 

[LinksOcarina]

yeah it might just be a case of "we didn't know" about the trademark, and since it is a slightly different logo they might get away with it in the court of law...doubtful though...

 

[Icepick]

It's my store and I'll see you in court assholes
