I have a quick question. I'm the co and webmaster of the uss bimwell and I have been looking at the star trek community awhile now. I've come and gone here...
From what I know of Copyright (since I am studying it), he has opened himself up to legal problems IF he has left in ANYTHING that is owned by Paramount. It...
Rough question. Fan fiction has been on the market, probably since the day after Star Trek aired. Go to any major or minor Star Trek convention and you can...
is there a license to be purchased to print fan fiction like that... or do those people at the conventions just do it and leave themselves legally open...??? ...
All, I am nearly certain that SELLING Trek fan fiction is copyright infringement. The purpose of copyright is to secure for the creator the potential to ...
Scott is pretty close to the mark here. I've spoken to a few lawyers about this (Father is a lawyer, step-father, uncle, Mom is a Para-legal, etc). This is a...
hmmm I recall hearing about a sim that charged a fee to join, or something of sorts. Paramount tore them apart, yes they are very very touchy. as for ...
All, I am pretty sure I can take my primary character, a human female, and place her in a non-Trek world and be safe, because the character herself does not ...
this explains an interesting site I saw when I first started searching for roleplaying games. Apparently, they had a run in with paramount and after due...
... If they win one lawsuit they can, with good lawyers, push it all off on the government. Paramount, MGM and others do not chase down people pirating...
don't forget one thing. We are all over the world. American law means nothing over here at all. They can round up every last simmer in US and have no...
I talked to a friend of mine who edits fanzines. Here's her reply: Fanzines. are they comptrighted by the fans that write them? Meaning, that if I turned the...
http://www.fastcopyinc.com/orionpress/disclaimers.htm would be an example of a good disclaimer... Ok now that we understand that we cann't be shutdown for...
I wouldn't say we can't be shut down. What has been said is true, at least to a degree. Those of us operating out of the USA have a greater risk. It is also...
Donations are always a vicious clause to mix in. technically that's not making money from selling Trek stuff. But does that count as being a charity? and...
Hi fellow GMs and COs. I wonder given recent experience if I am scaring potenial members from my RPG. The last 4 that joined, 3 of them (joined 2 weeks ...
Its not that you need a dedicated recruiter, you need to write an ad that will target specifically the type of people you want to attract. Many simmers do not...
I've had a long day and haven't had a chance to check your site yet but here are some general pointers. the majority of people out there aren't interested in...
... I have 2 people who post frequently. 1 that not consistant, 1 who posts about once every 2 weeks. ... We are explorers at heart. Character development is...
Hi, I recently joined this group and thought I would quickly write a quick introduction of myself: Here is a Quick RL Bio of myself: Name: Gareth Ellershaw ...

Please, not that sort of thing here, it's a little inappropriate. What's with all these "mailing friends lists" and "ringo address books" recently? What...
I really haven't a clue. I use the old-fashioned address book, true it is gmail's address book but still I don't use a service. Why would I need to? See ya, ...
Hi everyone. I have been quite sick in the last 10 days, creativity kinda gone. I was wondering if someone knew of a scene (PBEM/Forum or fan fic) where a...
Being the "Granny" of Trek I've promoted several officers in my time. Get in touch with me and I'll help you with it. Admiral T'Leia Chief of Staff - Spartan...
If T'leia is the Granny I guess I would qualify as Gramps. I have been around long enough to remember when they canceled TNG, DS9, Voyager (and gasp yes even...
Hehe, glad you took my advice :D already good to see old friends reunited I don't think the idea of integrating fan fic and art in fleets has been mentioned...
