Tbh he is the only one making a stink. No one else is reporting or cares.

To give an example, let's say someone decides to make a porn game called "Microsoft" featuring a game mechanic about ED and having a micropenis.

Yea cause his list of investors care about a porn game more than him bashing the sjws culture

does he even *have* investors?

You bet your ass Microsoft can sue them for trademark issues.

Even though Microsoft doesn't do porn games.

I honestly dont think so. If he does he doesnt advertise them

Tim accepts anonymous donations IIRC.

And backer-support style donations.

i get it in a potential sense though. idk, depends really how much they care

Yea and backers

But as for major investors, I don't think so.

But he has been trying to approach some.

And CLEARLY this game has caused issues not just for investors but for interviews.

It interferes with his ability to perform work.

yeah

It is both a brand he has built up over years and a brand they were made aware of BEFORE this project of theirs.

That smells of something, especially with how they treated him last time.

It would activate my almonds so much if the game company were open to actually discuss it instead of forcing it into a court battle. And also they should probably have looked the name up before they actually named their game. It only takes a google search.

Well ttbh since he didnt get we trademark, kinda brought on himself. If not this game then something else far worse could have taken it

International trademark is really bloody expensive tho.

And?

Again, you do not have to register a trademark to have trademark protections. It just makes it easier for you.

If it mattered he would come up with it

actually it doesn't look that expensive

@Grodd no but it does allow a chance for it to be lost

Only if the trademark is deemed abandoned.

Which it clearly was NOT.

that too

It is expensive Jas.

some guys tried to make an alcohol called "The Pirate Bay" at some point, but were forced to change the name

390at a glance

i see the problem, if you just google it it shows up right next to it. huh

For a multiple media-based platform like Tim Pool's Subverse as well as lawyer fees it's easily thousands of dollars for an international trademark.

bigger issue than i thought

That's pennies to save a brand

yeah 390 is tiny

It is not that cheap.

I thought it'd be like at least 10 grand

Google it bro. 390

It would be on the order of at least 1k to probably closer to 5k for something as big as Tim Pool's project scope.
