Manwin.co was registered 1 week after Manwin sent ICMRegistry a letter demanding they prevent the registration of their trademarks under the .xxx tld. Coincidence?

Common law trademarks are recognized throughout much of the world...not in EVERY country but certainly in many of them. Secondly, you're right in that it's only 1 of 3 UDRP criteria, but it was in your title and one of your main points, and was the most irrelevant one.

I see. Cool thanks. I'm no lawyer and I'm no expert but I know a little but I learned even more. Thanks chap.

Also is this guy above talking about writing styles serious. I don't even know what to say to him and his weird conspiracy talk. Seriously if your going to start talks about me being fake i suggest you prove it. I'll wait. You sound more like a manwin bot attempting to disrupt a good convo.sounds about right.

This is of course just a guess.. but Radishdreams is the "girl". "He"/"She" is also the one emailing me weird emails in a very weird tone saying how strange it is that we did not secure .net and so on...

Just a small hint, we even bought the .com! Its a 6 letter domain, the .com is the only domain that is really important, any other domain bought after we started using the name we will try to get since its a horribly unlikely name to actually want to use for anything. Its a fantasy word after all.

But hey, radishdreams, or whatever your real name actually is, do whatever rocks your boat... One in-house lawyer spending 10 minutes a week on getting this domain really is not a big loss or in any way will cause us bad press or issues or whatnot. It's a nice to have, it's not a must have. We are protecting our trademark.

And as many have finally told you here, "registering" a trademark and actually having one is not the same thing... so that it was registered after you bought manwin.co, really does not matter much.

Ok this is getting major foolish calling me a girl. I suppose anyone can speculate online especially in a forum. Bro i think you have this whole thing figured wrong. Whoever you been talking to was surely not me. I never spoken to the likes of you before since i never had reason to.

But hey, Nathan, or whatever your real name actually is, say whatever rocks your boat as you must think your some important being. I came to bring word and share but ignorant fuckers always have some dumb shit to say and others like you jump on the bandwagon especially if its about your company fucking up.

As many have not told you before, i dont know you and i this convo was meant for discussion but some learning came about for some of us about trademarks. Shit i honestly wish i was in that chicks position as you claim cause i would have taken any thousand a dollar if Manwin offered it to me. IDK who the hell she is but shes either crazy or is really not about money.

Nathan, you mention " just protecting our trademark" can I ask why you havent bothered registering :

Manwin.info

Manwin.us

Manwin.mobi

Manwin.biz

and about 30 more other extensions ?? if your looking to protect your name?

is the plan just to go after anyone who registers one or do you just like the .co one your trying to obtain?

simply curious hence me asking because it looks to me that your not really trying very hard to protect anything.

just goin after whoever registers one currently. Protecting a mark does not mean you have to register every single domain that uses it.

Even bigger companies don't register domain names with all their extensions. Look at Pepsi, who still has some country extensions unregistered.

I would venture to say that it is more about protecting the brand when someone attempts to misuse the trademark as opposed to registering everything with 'Manwin' in it which can get ridiculous and not to mention needlessly expensive.

It took something out of you to reply to the thread. Maybe you should get your sources correct instead of coming online and accusing other people of something because they brought your problem to light. A few people mentioned they spoke with this chick yet nobody spoke on it. I was born with moon sized balls bro and speaking my mind about somehting i researched to be true is not something i am afraid to do.

Why are you offering some chick thousands of dollars when you could use that one offer amount to buy most every Manwin domain in almost every extension. For some reason you don't want to protect anything yet your preaching about trademarks.

I agree, im also sure you know how difficult and expensive even for a trademark holder it is to use legal means to obtain domains that are used in a different industry and have no connection in any shape or form to the trademark holders business.

if I wanted to protect a trademark or even a nice domain/brand that had value to me the first thing i would do is at least invest what maybe $500 bucks ? in the main extensions to avoid the bigger expenses later in litigation , plus I would look at them as part of the investment in my name/brand/trademark.

Of course this is just how I would do it.

But they own the NET and ORG which are among the top domain extensions. Manwin didn't even do that so what does that say bro?

Exactly but their somehow interested in the name to be offering 5k. Its just the look of the whole situation is fishy to me. If Manwin does have trademark rights and they feel confident, why the hell would you offer 5k for something you honestly have a right to?

<--clueless about that part of it.

Seriously, this neither took something out of me, nor did I accuse anyone of anything (I guess except for you pretending to be someone you are not), and you clearly did not bring any problem to light. There is no problem...

You are blowing this way out of proportion... you make it sound like its the worst thing ever for us that we do not have certain domains. Its actually rather amusing to read your rants... In a strange way...

BTW, I am not here to teach you trademark law, so I really do not care if you think we are doing something wrong somehow...

Because a UDRP costs money too and takes time... and we really do not give a rats ass about spending $5k to save time...

If it gets much more expensive, it becomes useless though and we have to go other routes.

Ok so this is a guess from what i just researched but.... DOT CO domains are being used as CORPORATION,COMPANY OR COMMUNITY or thats how their selling it anyway. Its also shorter than COM and some people prefer shorter names even by one letter. It could be that CO is a very big typo and you dont want your investors or potential new clients mistyping and getting some chicks blog. CO is getting a name for itself too with Amazon and Overstock using it.

Im just guessing that could be why your interested!!

I see. Would love to see you go UDRP route. I think that would be a very interesting one. I dont quite understand the dont give a rats ass about spending $5k thing then the "If it gets much more expensive" comment. If your not worried about $5k, whats the worry point for Manwin?

Much like you, I have my own ways about things. Its more interesting that a managing partner of the company is here trying to stand up for his company. I wouldn't have it any other way but i hate false accusations.

Will you be offering $5k to those who register all the other un-registered ones because you dont give a rats ass over $5k a name ....but...but it seems you dont want to spend $500 registering about 30 of them?

I think that statement shows its not about "protecting your trademark" but simply the .co is a name you would like to own.

Ok im outta this thread , Good luck to all involved and i hope all parties can reach a nice agreement!

.org and .net are pretty much standard. .co is new, I can't believe that Manwin is offering ANYTHING for it, I would take that $5000 and fucking RUN.

A "girl" registers manwin.co and does not accept a $5000 offer. If I had to guess, I would say that someone is deliberately trying to set a precedent.

Well lets see if the page suddenly changes to Manwin within the next couple weeks. then you know she sold it or lost it in a UDRP.

But it would be a good idea to at least also get the .net,.org and maybe .biz and info.

i don't see how that blog is connected to the domain name, but heh?
Although I will say that any legal battle or dealing can way heavy on a woman's purse (or a man's pocket for that matter) so she might need to crack open the piggy jar if she wants a fight.

She should just negotiate her way to a nice little sum and sell the domain

sounds like she is just being stupid for the principal. take the money and move on. no one wants .co domains anyways. why would someone set up a blog on a .co? especially one that means nothing to them.

The single-word term itself cannot be trademarked.

I have told "Someone" to go pound sand in their ass.
Anyone who is serious will start the arbitration process with ICAAN, it's the only way to get a domain name. As for having a claim on a certain term or word even if it is part of a trademark doesn't mean squat if you are not using the domain to divert clients away from them or in a malicious manner.

Hate to break this to you, but your "other routes" are a waste of time too. You have absolutely no chance to win this domain unless you bribe the panel with free porn for life.

Assuming the above info is correct, your trademark was not filed prior, and even if it was, you still cant show that the domain was registered in "bad faith" as the subject matter on the site is entirely different.

What makes me so sure?

Fifteen years of being a domainer with so many domains bought and sold over the years I could not possibly keep track. Easily owned 2,000, probably more like 3,000 domains.

If you are so eager to spend money on domains I will sell you a few of mine LOL but you have no chance at getting this domain if she wont sell it, sorry-

That being said the person is stupid not to take the 5K IMO

If it gets much more expensive, it becomes useless though and we have to go other routes.

This could be solved very easily - call up Vendilla's *gangsta* room mate and he'll take care of everything.

They probably refused to give up their domains too. Im waiting for the multiple UDRP cases to come out. Will be fun to follow.

Do you think if Manwin filed UDRP cases and lost them all, would that be funny or embarrassing? Or both?

Based on the above, I can't see why she shouldn't keep the domain.

To knock back $5k, I don't understand!!!

I'd be enjoying this if I was Manwin. I would also purposely leave all other extensions unregistered in hopes this would happen again.

We're all here talking about Manwin, so win for them. What negative light could possibly come from this? There is no bad publicity! Those in the know understand this is just business as usual, and if the story would happen to make its way into some mainstream news, Manwin gets their name out there again.

Again, I'd be watching this with joy knowing that this is one big branding/marketing campaign that they already paid for with retainer fees.

That is one pretty damn good way of looking at it, if you were them or working for them!

Perfect example of big companies trying to bully smaller entities. Surley a good read mate.

I wonder how much Manwin would throw at a court case if they ever lost a UDRP?
