I was just about to delete it right as you sent that
I forgot it said genres when I posted this
where does it mention genres?
Hold on let me find it
ah I think I'm seeing what you're talking about
"You cannot report a Creator for creating an island of the same game genre, using the same gameplay featured in your island or for using the same island template as you."
this is only in reference to the title though
I was thinking names for the pit would trigger geerzy
basically they're saying you can't claim "Team Deathmatch PVP" as your own title because those are genres
And pit is also kind of a genre
Well yeah
"Pit" will never be a tag, and the gameplay might be a genre in it of itself, but the name is not
one can't copyright gameplay either
so Geerzy can't sue someone for having people drop into the island from a weapon selection area above
he can only sue people for using the name "The Pit", and that's if his trademark actually ends up passing
well, technically you "can sue" for a lot of things but you would lose if the other person isn't doing anything wrong
So regarding this whole new announcement, technically I can report somebody if they have Ares in Colossal Coliseum at the center of their thumbnail. Correct?
