Just cause you hate activision doesn't mean they're being babies. You wouldn't want someone buying an url to your company and redirecting it to your competitor. cmon now dg lol.

if they tried to make him take the site down cuz it was a fan site but not authorized then yeah they are being babies about it. they may not want someone having that url and redirecting it but im not sure they can do anything about it unless stuff has changed. i seen a story something like this a few yrs back about some guy buying a domain name for some big company before them and they couldnt do shit about it except pay him to buy it from him.

Kind of like the guy that copyrighted 21st Century Fox, these are gold diggers and I am not a fan of it, but I feel like there is nothing you can do about it except buy it from him. There is no slander from what I saw, he is not hurting either game by putting up a vid of Lampoons whatever and adding voices. Slander is a direct intentional way of talking bad about someone trying to hurt their business. A redirect is not slander and there is a loop hole in that as you do have freedom of speech. Slander is no joke as I myself have dealt with it recently as well. I know slander when I see it. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() "Guns don't kill people, lasers do." - Wally "I don't like repeat offenders, I like dead offenders". - Ted Nugent Born On Date: 1-30-2007 |

Well, the guy that bought that site to redirect, is actually guilty of breaking the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act. This was clearly done with intent, and if he tries to fight it, no court would rule in his favor and Infinityward/Activision would just win the domain name. If it ever got that far.
link The Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, passed in November of 1999, made it easier for individuals and companies to take over domain names that are confusingly similar to their names or trademarks. But because trademark infringement cases were long, drawn out, and prohibitively expensive, few cases ever made it all the way to trial. As a result, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) decided to streamline the process by creating the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP). In theory, the UDRP was a big improvement, since it made domain name disputes faster and cheaper, and also created a single three-prong rule for all domain name trademark disputes. In a UDRP case, the party seeking control of the domain need only prove three things: The trademark owner owns the trademark, The party that registered the domain name has no legitimate right or interest in the name, and The domain name was registered and used in bad faith. While the three prong rule is succinct on paper, in practice, it is far from straightforward. In particular, there is no clear definition of “no legitimate interest” nor “bad faith.” Blatant cybersquatting or typosquatting is clearly illegal under the three part test; such as buying “www.Gooogle.com” and sending Google an email saying that you’re going to put up porn on the site if they don’t buy it from you for $10,000,000. But for less clear cases, such as whether holding “www.Googles.eu” is a violation of Google’s trademark, the UDRP three-prong test provides little guidance. It’s also important to keep in mind that just because a trademark isn’t formally registered doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Trademarks can arise both through registration and through use. Trademarks that arise through use can equally be enforced in the US and in most countries (though not China) against people trying to cash in by using a confusingly similar name. In the end, they'll probably threaten him, he'll go to a lawyer and his lawyer will tell him how much it would cost, what he could lose and that'll be that. He probably wouldn't get any money from them. He's just lose ownership of the name and site. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() “Weapons down or I will not be responsible for what comes next.” - Captain America |

if it was a fan site before then it wasnt intentional. like i said before if its true and activision made him take it down...then fuck them. they are money grubbing dipshits. not sure why they would get pissed at free publicity and be dicks and get a ton of negative publicity.

Well. Good for them. That's a great deal for $150 (that is the ticket price for the event.)
