  Check out "Heroes Rising" Blogg :)http://www.heroesrisingmmo.bloggspot.com/Thank You :)//Gamica[Edited by - SomethingMan123 on May 3, 2010 11:22:27 AM];  Hey man don't mean to be rude or anything but we have a major problem and I AM NOT backing down! I am working on a game with the exact same name as yours and I have been working on mine for 3+ years! I find it funny that you even choose pretty much the exact same domain name as mine accept you have a sub-domain and I have the full .com domain name. If you don't believe me look up RiseofHeroes on these forums and you will find tons of information about my game. Also check out www.riseofheroesmmo.com for my website and I can even give you the exact date that I bought the domain name.   ;Quote:Original post by EmpireProductionsHey man don't mean to be rude or anything but we have a major problem and I AM NOT backing down!

It doesn't matter how long you have been working on the project.If you really want to assert your "rights" to the name, then I'd consider applying for a trademark.P.S. WHOIS lookups can give you the date any domain was registered.;  Well I am hoping he will be kind enough to change his name where he is still in the very early planning stages (been working 2 weeks on it). I am in the development process getting ready to release my first public alpha build of the client. If he wants to join forces and we can include some of his ideas into our game then that would be one solution or if he just wants to continue working on his game and change the name then that would be ok as well but I am hoping we can work something out. I don't have the thousands of dollars it would take to get the trademark!   ;  Hey there, ok, as you have been working with the game for 3+ years, I will change the name to Heroes Rising MMO :)Happy Developing ^^//GamicaP.S. All you have to do is ask, don't need to be so brutal -.-   ;  Sorry about that. It's just that I already had the same thing happen to the name of my team I was using (Empire Productions) So I had to change the "Company" Name to something else. I now like the new name better then the old name but it was a pain to change everything over to the new name.   ;  I understand :) No worries.I am still looking for members, in need of an Concept Artist and an Ideaist :)Thank you very much,//Gamica   ;Quote:Original post by EmpireProductionsWell I am hoping he will be kind enough to change his name where he is still in the very early planning stages (been working 2 weeks on it).

I don't have the thousands of dollars it would take to get the trademark!Not to be a party pooper or anything, but it's not as though "Rise of Heroes" is an incredibly original name. A quick google search revealed a Byond game called Rise of Heroes made in 2003. http://www.byond.com/games/hub/Xerse/RiseOfHeroesIf you're really worried about someone else using your game's name, you should probably think up a really original and unique name. There was even a Ben 10 movie called Ben 10: Rise of Heroes or something like that... Not to mention it could get confused with City of Heroes.Also, I'm pretty sure a trademark doesn't cost thousands of dollars. I think the filing fee is like $200-$400 for a single trademark, though I could be mistaken. Either way... if you're that adamant about the name, you should definitely consider trademarking it. Worst case scenario is that SomethingMan123 could have rushed and gotten the name trademarked after you posted your rant and you would have been out of luck.
