Ok, I'm not trying to be a prick, but isnt that still kind of argumentative? I mean, it is a team, that has a roster and is in a league. Real money is used to purchase the points. Couldnt you argue that the user name was a "Digital ID" where the true identity is held secret for publicity reasons? All jargon aside, the site is pretty good. Im still new to the GLB but this is the first team site ive seen.


you can copyright anything you made 100%. dont listen to these idiots doesnt matter the topic of the site, they dont know what they talking bout.

i do webdesign freelance i do know.

i dont think he made it 100% though so he prolly shouldnt copyright it :/

No one said he couldnt. I mentioned he should use HIS name for the copyright not the fictional team. That being only if he wanted to protect anything. He may have used the fictional team just to make it look more official. No one was slamming him. We were just wanting to make sure he protected his work.
And for whats its worth, I'd trust an Attorney more than a web designer when it comes to copyright law. FYI, you really shouldn't call people idiots when your spelling and grammar are that of a 10 year old.
