Easist thing to do is to change it.
Does he provide any proof that he owns the intellectual property?
Link to your site/his site?
If this was serious you'd be talking to his lawyer, he's obviously a stupid troll...don't believe him.
He can't do anything, any court that's not retarded will not favor him. Just take the site down.
[QUOTE=lead_farmer;26228314]Dangit Bobby.[/QUOTE] :sigh: Anyways he said he will try to get in contact with a lawyer. I tried saying sorry and id shut it down but he went on saying "Nope. To late bro"
His site: [url]http://qhcl.webs.com/[/url]
[QUOTE=Jimmyshimmy;26228364]Does he provide any proof that he owns the intellectual property?[/QUOTE] He said once he gets the court thingy he will scan it. Then come to england to shoove it up my ass [editline]22nd November 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=wuzzimu;26228390]His site: [url]http://www.qhclbr.com/leaguerules.htm[/url][/QUOTE] Yea thats his site.

[QUOTE=Jimmyshimmy;26228364]Does he provide any proof that he owns the intellectual property?[/QUOTE] No. I dont have any forms of copyright
[QUOTE=BobbyHill;26228379]:sigh: Anyways he said he will try to get in contact with a lawyer. I tried saying sorry and id shut it down but he went on saying "Nope. To late bro"[/QUOTE] If this guy is calling you 'bro', he's either trolling you or just a dumbass. If he really was angry about you claiming intellectual property and wanted to take legal action, I would hope he would be more formal than saying 'Too late bro'.
[QUOTE=rnate;26228367]If this was serious you'd be talking to his lawyer, he's obviously a stupid troll...don't believe him.[/QUOTE] I hope he is trolling. My dad is rich. Last thing i need is to pay a smug ass idiot overseas for a little misfortune

[QUOTE=BobbyHill;26228379]:sigh: Anyways he said he will try to get in contact with a lawyer. I tried saying sorry and id shut it down but he went on saying "Nope. To late bro"[/QUOTE] Change the name and remove refrences to the original name. If he thinks he can do shit still either the judge will run this case into the ground or he won't get a lawyer to support the case in the first place.
[QUOTE=BobbyHill;26228379]:sigh: Anyways he said he will try to get in contact with a lawyer. I tried saying sorry and id shut it down but he went on saying "Nope. To late bro"[/QUOTE] take the site down when they go to court they will laugh at his ass

Want a fucking link to what he is going on about? Here ill screencap this convo were having
Also, "QHCL" isn't copyrighted, at least in the USA (as far as I could find)
Make an account on their forums, there's two recent posts titled "For the Outlaw" and "Am I overreacting?" but they're both members only. I'm guessing they might have to do with you.
Tell him to fuck off.
