I talked to 'Mystery of Y' clan and told them that we are not happy with their decision of creating a tag and team name almost identical to our without asking for our permission in advance.

Some of you guys feel like it is unnecessary to come to this public forum and whine about this but that's why it was made for, to discuss e+ related problems, right? Just as they did not ask for our permission to go public with our tag, we did not ask them to change their tag until after we went public.

I really think that they didn't mean to mock Mystery of X in any way, but if they asked for our permission, I think we would have found a solution.

If they are willing to continue this discussion in private, we are more then open to their suggestions and requests on our clan email (you can find this in the clan db but i'll link you from here: mailto:x.community@gmail.com.

Sorry for the long post but pinky has a point: each clan should have some sort of Copyright over their clan name & tag as long as they came up with it.

I must say it was my idea to copy x tag, and i should apologize for that. It was supposed to be joke, but you see...

So i'll now delete all tags, tell my friend to stop it, and try to forget.

Sorry, it wasn't supposed to be like that Happy

One more thing:

I played with u Pinky, and you never told me to stop it. Just one word, just one. And you'll never need to make this topic Tongue

And more (2nd edit Tongue):

It was no clan, no team, no legion etc, just fun.

Yeah, it is. But dont you guys think, that copying x clan tag is so obvious, that i can't be serious? Well, we was thinking like that - that everyone will know what is everything about. Well, it looks like we f*** up, sorry.

Eot for me.

We don't want to kill you 'Mystery of Y' guys so just a sorry is ok, nothing more needed. IF you want to continue using this fun tag, you should talk to us, we can work this out somehow.

We can copyright our tags by actually trying to report those that copy tags and/or clan names and kicking/banning them from this community.

Because this was the first case when such an imitation was reported, i think they should get away with only a warning, but we should really be merciless to those who do this on purpose, trying to ruin a clan's reputation or trying to mock that clan's members.

but i think people pay way too much attention to tags.

a clan tag contains all the honour and essence of a clan. It's their own trademark and it should be respected by others, no matter if the clan is good, medium or bad. Some clans worked for years to build up their honour through their tag, so i beg to differ with your upquoted statement.
