RE: King.com

I think it's weird devs can trademark games while they actually just copied a game themselves. Is there a rule for that? There should be.

Also, candy crush saga and banner saga? Cmon man, you can't be serious over that. They need to grow up.

What a joke. Trademarking the word "Candy"? Pathetic. Just as bad as Apple trying to Trademark a button and shape.

King.com is the cancer of the "gaming"-community.

So, can they actually sue the candy industry now?

Na, it's only the use of the word "candy" in video games.

RE: King.com

This is why you shouldn't be able to trademark common words.

They're gonna sue you now since you used the word in a gaming forum. Take cover!

Isn't that what Bethesda tried to do over the game "Scrolls" by Mojang?
