is OcUK registered trade mark?

Exactly what i was thinking.. Although its an abbreviation. So If i want to start my clan "Official Cheaters United Kingdom" (OcUK) would i need to permission or go through some massive court hearing ? lol

protect their name from having a good gaming community ? had a quick read through the last few pages and couldn't spot any proof someone was cheating ? maybe i missed it.... Ah yes because we live in an age of guilty before proven innocent.

Who's guilty?

It's a little silly that a warning to the guilty is causing upset to the innocent.

I think the issue is the way it was delivered, you could argue overclockers are losing out on free advertising if people see OcUK as a link to OverclockersUK shop/forums.

If OcUK isnt a registered trade mark i think they would have a hard time enforcing anything legally speaking.

Could have spun an advert out of it for gaming chairs or headphones

We don't require any free advertising... The issue as I see it is, the same as the EA BF2 issue currently, you guys have found something to be upset about, and you're riding with it, if EA ended dev on BF2 the same people who are crying would turn around and be upset it's no longer in development.

No one called anyone out, it was a simple statement to say if you are cheating, and using our tag, you'll be dealt with accordingly. You can read between as many lines as you want it won't change the statement.

We're not upset with people gaming using ourselves/forums/community to create their own, quite the opposite, we're happy about that, what were not happy about is people partaking in things like cheating that ruin the experience for all involved.

I dont play with anyone on here or havent done so for a very long time, yet i would still find the way it was delivered and the tone to be derogatory.
I ask again is OcUK a registered trade mark because if not then im afraid its a mute point, as for cheating anyone who participates in this is sad IMO. But where is any proof of this ?

I have to say your not doing your Brand any favors right now.

"Abusive"

@atomic7431 the reason I ignored the question of trademark is because the question is a moot question, of course we're trademarked, but that's got nothing to do with it, we're not about to make this a legal issue... We don't like cheating/cheaters or anything along those lines, it ruins the experience and therefore the community. Simple.

-Edit Updated @Mynight thanks, can't even blame that one on auto correct

Yeah it is.

Also it's moot

Have you proven the guilt of those named? Because you blanket statemented the whole thread and the whole platoon who use OcUK tags - therefore inferring that everyone is guilty using your statement quoted as reference.

That's the silly thing - you have alienated a lot of players on the unfounded and unsubstantiated say-so of 1 individual.

And that there just shows how completely wrong you are. 2 completely different things to.......

PS. if you can't see what is wrong with SWBF 2 then there is no chance of you seeing what was/is wrong with your post and how you started this whole fiasco.

Personally I really don't care about having tags, especially ocuk tags (always hated wearing them), if anything, it is great having our "own" platoon/tags now.

PS. I blame haz

Matt O'Brien · 16 Nov 2017 at 17:14

This was done the other day, there was no need to bring it back up as far as I'm concerned, this is a BF thread so return it back to that, if you want to discuss this further, I'm more than happy for you to PM me, or create a thread in FCD but there's 0 point in this continuing this way, it's turning into bickering.

Josh · 16 Nov 2017 at 18:43

The accused have every right to voice their concerns over the manor in which this has been handled especially as they haven't been named or proven to have done anything wrong; therefore we are all suspects and by your own admission "guilty" - regardless of if you want it brought up or not, you started the discussion with your blanket warning so at least have the common courtesy to listen to those you have accused.

I digress once the "post in FCD" has been added it makes all future discussion impossible in an open format.

Moving on then...

Is anyone playing tonight? After a day of dealing with Soldiers and Plumbers each of equal intelligence I rather fancy playing some BF1 - or is everyone playing Pay2WinFront2!

PS - I also blame Haz

TonyTurbo78 · 16 Nov 2017 at 18:47

Yes Josh I be on at 7:30. Looking forward to smashing some scrubs tonight.

You need to apply, there's no invite system.

Change of pace playing operations last night for the reward. Tough considering we'd never played operations on those maps, but winning is winning. The clan stack against us on the following two conquest rounds was too much. It was 7-8 of them against 3 of us. Still they were close.

applied

Can any good pilots teach me how to fly? Sidey?
