Thanks to the author for the review. We continue to go strong, now about to enter Season 6 and 3 years of online hockey! :D We have a brand new script now and pretty excited to start the next season. If you're reading this, feel free to come check it out. It's all free. Tie's comments...Wow. For the casual reader..This was a guy we had to boot from the league and ban from the sim for numerous problems with profanity, griefing, and poor sportsmanship at games. We're continuing to welcome anyone looking for something different to do in Second Life! Stop on by Jericho Hill or send me an instant message in game.

The league is run by a middle aged man who is trapped in a 5 year old's mind. There is no freedom of speech there, which i like to think of it as a dictatorship. Jack cannot handle the league, which is falling apart, and makes me even the more happier. There are way to many accounts of muting, banning, and other crap that doesnt belong in hockey. Jack may try to be the "sane, nice guy owner who listens to everyone's problem and doesnt edit or delete post, nor does he ban people because of their opinions," which all of the above is false, and he pretends to run the league fairly, which is another load of crap that has come out of his already pathetic self. The league is composed now of "butt kissers" and "yes men" and if you say anything that goes against the league then youre banned. Hell, most of the time Jack deletes your posts and pretends not to have done it. All in all, the league has proven over time to be better looking then it really is, and its really not worth your time. If anyone has any doubts about what i have just said, or they dont believe me, i have notecards and posting that will prove you wrong, so instant message me in second life.

I don't think most corporations will give a shit, and in leiu of all the recognization of viral marketing, they'll probably see it as beneficial. There's probably hundreds if not thousands of fan sites for NHL teams that use the logos and such that are allowed to exist for the sake that it's good advertising and as long as they're not profiting directly off of the logos, it doesn't really matter.

Legally, one cannot hold a word as their own - which is why many trademarks are combonations or words, foriegn, or misspellings.

Large franchises generally don't go after their amateur or fans unless they're in direct competition (often shirts or regalia), and with fifteen people watching and one blog reporting, I doubt that's really going to happen.
