funny thing is this isnt shap's sextube , this is a totally different sextube who made an application for "pornotube" one week before shap applied for "sextube"

Great find I can't wait to hear his explanation on this one. Guess it was just a coincidence.

Interesting indeed

Bump for this thread.

fucked world

fucked

:2 cents:

Did they want to steal away PORNOTUBE.COM ?

What in the FUCK???

I like to dress in woman's clothing, and run down the street shouting 'Chase Me ! Chase Me!'...

Its fun !!

Nice uncomfortable find.

LOL, looks like they arnt getting this one... good try though... not.

in heels? :Graucho

Duncan? Is that you?

Could be as simple as a better completed application with more information.

as the world turns

isn't the domain safe aslong as it was registered previous to the TM though? maybe he was planning on buying it.. hes still a twofaced asshole tho.

interesting ... :)

The same guys filed a claim for sextube:

dam, it's getting itchy around here

so technically, these guys could go back and petition to either get sextube given to them or have the trademark removed entirely..

very interesting. someone should contact them and tell them about this..

Trademark squatting in hopes of domain shaving.

Top notch!

These guys registered a number of BS trademarks with the sole purpose to go after premium domains. They did exactly what you guys accused of. We aren't after people's domains like these guys. We are just looking to protect ourselves.

The shitty part about this thread is most people won't read it all the way thru and assume that is us. Thanks :disgust

We squashed these POS with the Trademark office. Why would you contact them and tell them anything? They never owner PornoTube and never owned sextube but registered trademarks to try to get them. These are guys you want to contact? Wow.

i only reg domains with disney, weiser, and tube in the url

Is this where you learned the strategy?

Passing it on?
:321GFY

People probably won't read properly so here you go :2 cents:

shap i think he was trying to give an example of a prior in scope use of your trademark term "sex Tube"

funny how 95% of webmasters who replied to this thread, missed this

edit: Roald beat me to it

Fuck you,

going after hardsextube.com is a fucking joke.. it was well established on it's own.

Quite simply, your a piece of shit on all counts.

whats that lol

now this is getting better

omg :1orglaugh

I have a TM on mmm, this is your only official warning, surrender mmmtube.com to me at once.

Thanks in advance.

:1orglaugh

Respect given to Shap for protecting what he thinks is his. Respect for actually doing business correctly, respect for following through, and respect for trying.

I understand this post isn't really related to him.. But clearly the rest of you do nothing but eat off the same moldy cheese every day. You people simply don't get it and it shines through with every post made.

sorry shap if you are offended, but really , people that dont read the post properly are prob not the people you need to worry about.

It seems to me this company was trying to trademark squat, i agree. I just found it curious that you regged sextube tm a week after they filed for pornotube using sextube as the filing name? Is this just pure luck or is there more to the story ? I'm not trying to accuse you of anything bad , just asking because the whole reasoning seems cloudy.

Did you just randomly pick that date to file , were you warned someone was trying to trademark your domain name ? if so how did you find out. The other sextube appears they were incorporated in nevada as sextube well before you applied for the tm on sextube. You mentioned in the other thread about already fighting this company for officialsextube.com ( still up and owned by them it appears )

Were you tipped off by a trademark lawyer ? did you file for the tm after doing a search and seeing their application ?

p.s. this is your own personal biz and your welcome to just say "none of your business", but curiosity got the best of me

Quick question for you, still posting full length batman videos on surfer forums? just wondering i couldnt find the video anymore since the last time you posted it, so if you can update it on that forum i would love it.

I don't know who you think I am, but you are wrong. I'm flattered you guys are so concerned about it though...

all of this is not my business..
I'm just curious if SexTube Inc. was established before, can they claims that SexTube TM should belong to them, how does that work?
