[quote:post_uid0="Nantuko Joe"]Though Marvel may be MORALLY wrong in this situation, legally they are the good guys.
And would all of you calm down? Seriously, I said the same thing on BG and i'll say the same thing here. If an online site plays such an important part in your everyday lives that you make such a big deal about it, like forming protests and emailing Marvel in protest and whatnot, then you really need to get a life. You people don't realize that Marvel has constantly been getting screwed in the big industry business. The first X-Man movie, the Spiderman movie, and both Blade films were films based on Marvel characters, yet the company name "Marvel" appeared nowhere in the films credits or anything (which is why in the beginning of the Hulk and X-Men 2 movies, they had a little Marvel logo thing). They essentially got gyped out of quite a bit of time, and there was nothing they could really do about it. Now no offense to TMy, but if you had just been gyped out of quite a few million dollars within the past few years, and you discovered that somebody (TMy) had created and released an online site containing your own copywrited material, without charging time to the users, and you didn't see a single cent of time coming back, wouldn't you be pissed? The ONLY way I can see a compromise to be made would be if TMy charged the users a fee to play the site (like EverQuest), with Marvel getting some sort of percentage of the time made. If both Marvel and TMy could work something like that out, then I believe the site may be able to be saved. But for all you people emailing Stan Lee, the Marvel company, and Marvel's lawyers, protesting their actions and whatnot, you're just decreasing any chance in hell that TMy could have to get this site back running. And like I said....this shouldn't be such a big deal for most of you. This is a site. An online Videosite should NOT play such an important part in your everday life.[/quote] Well, would marvel be happier if tmyapp put there logo all over the site, and they got $ from tmyapp so that the site can keep running! i think we should all donate $ to tmyapp so he can give it to marvel so that we can keep the site running, tmyapp: you should rechange the whole site by totaly putting alote of marvel logo's and ext.

What the #### is that #### them.
:angryfire: |
stupid ####ie thing under my name...

Lol...in my opinion, these kids on the forum sending emails isn't gonna do jack ####.
You really think that Marvel and its lawyers are going to reverse their decisions because they hear the sob stories of a gang of 12-16 year olds? Seriously....you all have to stop and think about what's going on. The only way that Marvel will allow TMy to keep this site and site up would be if they were getting some sort of kickback.....which won't happen unless TMy pays for it out of his own pocket, or if us, the fans, are charged (and I really can't see the former happening, not in a million years.) Face it, the "dream" is dead. I was actually hoping on making my return in the not too distant future, but I guess that's not happening. However, I'm not going to make a big deal about it like most of you are doing. I'm not going to email the lawyer, or marvel, or Stan Lee himself....because i have more important things to do then sit and cry that a site got shut down. I suggest you all do teh same. Quote:

Bro....we don't have enough time to donate that will appease Marvel. Everyone donating combined will only raise maybe a grand....not nearly enough for Marvel to allow a site to stay up w/o getting any sort of kickback. |

darkflash: emailing Marvel is going to do nothing. Do you really think that Marvel is going to allow TMy to keep the site going, just cuz a bunch of kids are emailing them with their opinions?
shinobi: SOMEONE WILL REPLY WHENEVER THEY DAMN FEEL LIKE IT!!! No one's going to reply the moment you make a post, so stop posting the same frigging thing!!! And if you don't know why marvel's shutting down the site, then go to the main site. Or a topic saying why they're doing it. Whatever you do, quit spamming! |
nows not the time drop it joe

[quote:post_uid0="stjames 2.0"]nows not the time drop it joe[/quote]
[color=green]Not the time for what? I told a spammer to quit spamming, and told you people to stop and think for a minute, to listen to reason. So don't YOU tell me what I can or can't do....i'm merely putting in my 2 |

Uh, I'm 19, not 12. And I scored a 1300 on my SATs, and graduated high school with a 3.4 GPA...so I am actually pretty smart. And I do not believe that a crapload of emails from 12-16 year-olds is going to sway them from their decision. The ONLY way they will reconsider would be if they were receiving time from TMy and Project X for them to continue running the site (if Marvel is even interested in allowing TMy to continue running the site; chances are they won't want anything to do with it and will refuse to go back on their decision). Emails won't do ANYTHING, and I can guarantee that. This is the real world, not just some online fantasy world. In the world of big businesses, all they care about is time, sad to say. A bunch of emails won't get Marvel the time they would want for having their name on an online site using their characters. IF, and that's a big IF....IF they decide to pursue the angle of having an online site using their characters, the only way they would be happy would be if they and Project X charged the players quite a bit of time....most likely the kind of time they charge for sites like EverQuest and whatnot. That would be around $12 a month to play this site, with time going to Marvel for having their copywritten material used in the site, as well as time going to TMy to continue hosting and running the site. But a bunch of emails won't do a single thing, I can guarantee it. |
*sigh* sending pity e-mails to a big, million dollar corporation to have a online site site brought back up and running....
tmy, i do apprieciate your hard work and all but i am totally shocked at finding out that your use of marvel characters are illegal. you made no offical deal with them? I WANT WOLVERINE BACK! but c'mon people, listen to joe. he is right as i am. marvel is a big corparation tham makes millions and they see thier products used without thier approval. now, if you see someone rides your bike without your approval, your gonna let them keep riding? i'd punch them right off. this is exactly whats happening. lets all think for a second: sending e-mails to marvel begging and pleading to have the site back up and running will really work huh? some of you better be millionaires if you ever want this site up and running again. now tmy, i really appreciate your work but i read the letter and stuff, c'mon. you broke a law, you cant just get away with that. i'll be damned if they allow it to run again just from those e-mails. |
*sigh* after what me and Nantuko Joe said u still dont get it flash U are nothing to Marvel u cant make them have a change of heart and just give it back, and here them say oh it nothing we will just go away it never happened. This is real live boy like joe said its a slim to none chance thta 12-16 year old's would bring back a site. You can do all u want spam them to death. beg, boycott. It wont matter you cant hurt Marvel, u make is sound that this is ur whole life. So just get up open the window to see sun shine for the first 2-3 years.

u guy's are surprisingly, agreeable on what you say but all im saying is we have to get the "site" up and running!! you guy's are obviously smart, have any suggestions?
|
no, the site is not my whole life! it's just a good thing to do to kill time when im not out getting drunk at some partie. or doing something fun with my dawgs!~

That's just it....it's not gonna happen. In the world of big business, nothing's for free. Everything has a price. Therefore, unless TMy smoothes out a deal with Marvel, promising Marvel quite a bit of time to continue running the site (most likely $12 per month for each person that plays it, which will run up profits of a few thousand bucks a month, if not more), the site will never come back up. And that's assuming that Marvel will just forgive TMy for the copyright infringement laws that he broke...they already appear to be on some sour terms (TMy COULD be forced to pay Marvel up to around $300,000 in damages in a class-action lawsuit), so I doubt that XMvsSF will EVER come back. |
you know that this kinda stuff has happen before right?

[quote:post_uid0="darkFlash88"]you know that this kinda stuff has happen befor right?[/quote]
With Project X? Umm....no, not that I'm aware of.... For anyone who hasn't seen the letter that Marvel sent to TMy, here is a copy. This should clarify that there are indeed sour relations between TMy and Marvel at the moment, and that the site will most likely not be allowed to go back up, at least not if TMy intends to keep Marvel material on the site: http://projectx.cyberfuturism.com/MarvelLetter01.jpg |
dalm...time time time...thats all they want. the world now revolves around time man. unless we cough up sum cash we aint gettin this site back. i dont think we could do anything unless make everyone pay like every month or so like them other sites. but ill do anything to keep this site up shooo. its not the marvel ppl faulty though. it IS their char. or w/e anywayz. i dont wanna watch it die!! ill put in like $50 bucks rite now if they want. more? fine! *like thats gonna help* well we'll just see wat happens. ill pray. thanks for everything Tmyapp. dalm i luv u man. :'( y oh y

yep i think either we cough up some cash or tmyapp make new char, new name, new site, ext.

Now that would be a good idea....creating a fully-original fighting site online, using original characters, attacks, storylines, etc. I know for a fact that a few months back, TarkanX expressed interest in creating such a site, but i've yet to know his project. If TMy and Tarkan could collaborate and create a 100% original fighting site, that would be their best option. However, since I'm fairly sure that TMy isn't getting back any of the time he spent in the creation of XMvsSF online, he most likely wouldn't want to spend the time to start over from scratch using original material. |
$1000 bucks do ?
