foley is winning driving a wedge between mamedevs and the BYOAC community :'( |
| Fat_Trucker:
Accepted. My point was that MameDev are taking independent action rather than waiting for another enterprising soul like Foley to try to steal it out from under them again screaming 'foul'. Their lawyers have likely advised them that they need to take positive action to protect their trademark. It doesn't seem like they are trying to ban the products just make people be a little more creative in the way they advertise them and associate their suitability for use with a trademarked product. |

What's the deal with this: "you must not provide information to those who purchase your product concerning where to obtain unlicensed game software" It should be legal and free to tell anyone how to do anything For example: You CAN legally buy a book on how to convert an SKS (semi-auto rifle) from semi to full-auto (a sub-machine-gun) and read it to your heart's content, for entertainment purposes. That book is sold on Amazon.com But you CAN NOT actually do the conversion, because it's illegal (in this country, anyway) Hell : you can even legally buy the plans to build nuclear bombs! So the MAME dev's are telling us what we CAN and CAN NOT tell people? I'm certian that goes against our constition... |
