TOPIC: Your Minecraft server is being stolen

Your Minecraft server is being stolen 9 years, 9 months ago #212553

All the traffic that should be going to your server is directed to a Nazi server. They lay of claim your website as well. When me and a few other people confronted the owner I was greeted with this.

Also, it appears on the actual minecraft forums. Its the first result when searching for Survival servers

Chute will fix it. The name Friendly Players is copyrighted I think.

Gnon, we ask that you please refrain from attempting to question them. I'm sure the players of that community do not appreciate the harassment. Just leave it to Chute and myself to handle this situation.

People seem to think that once someone makes something, it's automatically theres and is "copyrighted" in the eyes of the law.

You have to file a patent to get the name copyrighted and I highly doubt he actually did file one. Not to mention the name 'Friendly Players' is a pretty common term.

As far as I know, Chute's already aware of this issue. It was brought up on the forums not too long ago.

Chute is extremely professional, I'm sure he's got documents or something.

I'm pretty sure Chute isn't the kind of person to just randomly throw that at the bottom of the page because it looks nice.

And that's my opinion. Love it or hate it, as long as you respect it.

I've seen a lot of people and servers do that even though they don't actually have a patent for it (remember Derpy's program he made?). I'm not saying he didn't copyright it, because for all I know he actually did. But it really isn't that easy to get the name 'Friendly Players' copyrighted when it's used in daily speech so frequently. Remember when Candy Crush tried to get the words 'candy' and 'saga' copyrighted? I don't know though. This is just speculation. I didn't intend for people to quote me on this.
