Also, why is Mike "Van Pelt" Palij funding all this? Your server fees, your
bumper sticker fees, giving you the capital for your DVD business? Seems a bit
creepy to me.
Pity money...

So this isn't just a rumor? It is true?

Maybe he's a sugar daddy or suitcase pimp.
I have the email to prove it. I posted it in another post, but here it is
again, snipped for brevity (there's a lot of administarative stuff about the

Where is Palij...er..Van Pelt anyway? No news stories today
Stefan
Don't know, don't care. If and/or when he begins flooding the newsgroup, I'll
be killfiling him. I've started throwing a whole bunch of people in the
killfile and it's really made for a much easier read.
lol......basically everyone who doesn't agree with Panaro.
So what, that must mean about 4 posts a day come up.

lmao @ all the rspw cloak and dagger..."red herrings"...sure thing
man...whatever you say Mr. Genius.
*snicker*
And just FYI. Any "FAQ" I put out won't be done by a stupid ass third grade
"editorial team". The reason so many people have expressed interest in me
working on an rspw faq is because *I'M* footing the bill for hosting, and
I'm making it completely open source. Anyone can have at it, anyone can add
or edit it, it's tightly controlled *by programming*, which I guess is
something you're not familiar with obviously. It's more than likely going to
exist as an open source XML document that will act as a web service feed for
anyone to consume at their pleasure. I haven't written a single question,
nor have I provided a single answer. I'm not the "editor" or whatever you
fancy yourself. I'm just the programmer.
There's no spams begging people to come see my website, it's all done via
mailing list. No Spam, No Begging, No crying like a fucking baby...just
programming and an FAQ worthy of the group that exists in a completely open
way.
So you take your abortion of a website and stick it up your white trash non
skill having ass. People gravitate to something that works...not something
that's going to be hijacked eventually for your own personal gain on the
backs of other hard working posters, you fucking imbicile. Notice the rats
abandoning your sinking ship? Tell you something?
Another world famous John Henry failure. Par for the course.

Funny, I read this.
"I *am* the trademark holder, idiot."
And then this.
"I *didn't* shell out the $750 for registration"
Don't try and pass this off as ownership,
"I *did* shell out nearly $200 for a nationwide trademark search -
federal and state-by-state, to the county level - before I started using
it."
Doesn't cut it. If I set up a tent on some land and run a property
search on it, it doesn't mean I own it. If I buy a car and run a search
on it, but don't bother registering it, it does not mean I can drive it.
If I run a name search on a company, find it's not in use, and start
using it without registering it, it still does not mean I own it.

I think my life is passing me by
In theory, this is true (at least on a state level; the federal
trademark codes are not built upon common law).
In practice, though, the doctrine of "finders keepers" would afford you
very little protection were a trademark dispute to arise. It would be
your word about when you first used the mark against another
claimant's; and if the other party was unaware of your claim and
registered the mark themselves, that's going to tip the ruling in their
favor.

Domain name squatters say, "HI".
You've been handing out legal advice for about 5 years, and it gets more and
more hilarious since you're wrong about 99% of the time. You've got maybe a
GED and no legal training. Like I said hilarious.
But you said you were earlier. So are you a liar?
That shouldn't stop you though from making sweeping legal pronouncement. Every
kook on RSPW does regularly.
And what have you produced? There's no active FAQ. You're big RSPW.net
project consists currently of outdated polls garnering anywhere from 1 to 10
responses.
On top of that, Krusty's been working on a FAQ for maybe a week. You've had
nearly two years to get your act in gear.
LOL! There are really people who still think like this?
Of what exactly?
Ahhh...see? I stumped you.
*snicker*
Huh? What brought this on? What does any of this have to do with my comment
on everyone making legal pronouncements despite having no legal training (or
intelligence in general).
