Facebook trying to trademark the word "Face" - Polidicks

Trademark laws can be such BS.

[QUOTE=morrowindsky;24409876]I have a face. [B]FUCK, I NEED A LAWYER, RIGHT NOW.[/B][/QUOTE] Not only that, but you need a lawyer without a face, and they're harder to find.

Man, I wanna kick Mark in his face. Oh wait, I owe him money now.

welcome to Pacefunch. enjoy your stay. doesnt sound the same :saddowns:

[QUOTE=Hiccuper;24407127]Isn't facepunch already copyrighted or something? They have offices and all.[/QUOTE] People need to stop thinking a trademark is a copyright, because it's not.

Why would they do that? What's the point?

This won't go through, nothing this stupid ever does. Calm down.

Facepunch should go trademark the work "Face"

I want to punch Mark Zuckerberg in the face for doing this -The word Face is a trademark owned by Facebook and Mark Zuckerburg, © Mark Zuckerburg, 2010.-

If all else fails we can ask the [i]other[/i] Facepunch for help.

Technically, if this go through, FP won't be able to release any products with the word Face in it. So a sequel to Facewound would be out of question.

[QUOTE=Elements;24407486]Anybody else remember when Apple tried to trademark 'Apple'? Like, everything in connection with apple too. Like calling NYC 'The Big Apple' Yeah.[/QUOTE] Yeah, and Apple Corps (Apple Records) sued them for multi-million dollars settlements, and won every time. Apple Incorporated (Apple Computers) almost had to pay every time they had an audio innovation in their products. However, despite a long, bloody history between the two, corporate relations are improving. See: [URL]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Corps_v._Apple_Computer[/URL]

Wow. What is the world coming to?

Im going to trademark the letter F then...

I SHALL COPYRIGHT THE MOST USED LETTER: e! I WILL BE RICH! RICH I TELL YOU!

[QUOTE=CamperMan;24415770]If all else fails we can ask the [i]other[/i] Facepunch for help.[/QUOTE] Funny thing is their a bunch of douche bags that would never have the ability to help ever.

trademarking words is moronic.

[QUOTE=garry;24407559]We existed before this, so won't affect us.[/QUOTE] I love grandfathering laws. It makes driving my grandfathers old 1943 Ford Pickup legal. No airbags, no seatbelt, 3-4 people can sit in the front, and you can lay down across the seat and sleep.

we just call ourselves Fasepunch

Does that mean we will have to change the bodypart and rename our faces so our faces don't get sued?

cuntpunt-ch [editline]12:44PM[/editline] Australia just banned Faces.

Maybe we'll only be charged a small fee every time we post on the site, to cover Garry's cost of having to use the word "Face" on his website. We could charge by the letter as well.

Facepunch only started like a few months later than Facebook. I know that the name will probably never change, but if they're forced to that's bullshit.

[QUOTE=garry;24407559]We existed before this, so won't affect us.[/QUOTE] Hey Garry, since you were here first, try and trademark face and then sue facebook

[QUOTE=Robert64;24407240]I want to start a company called FaceFace just to stick it to 'em[/QUOTE] Accidentally rated you disagree, have 4 funnies and a heart to make up for it.

How the fuck can you even do that.
