He is a member on all potential opposition sites. Including here.
Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

"infringes on Trademe intellectual property"....interestingly, I've seen those exact words used in a post on TM.

I don't see why they'd actually care. Unless we set up a trading platform.. then I'd expect a letter from their lawyers haha Tongue

God that would be so awesome wouldn't it. I love the idea of saying "fuck you" to TM.


RE: Trademe community closing down - king1 - 12-11-2021

i like the idea of setting up a wee market place as well, nothing in MYBB can do that but might be able to find a separate package maybe, a bit like FB marketplace but nicer and nicer people

What is there here that infringes anything, the two color logo perhaps?

A marketplace would be a cool addition in the future. I'm no web developer, or else I would have already done it!
I've been looking into blockchain platforms to create a decentralized market, would be a pretty cool thing to start.
An alternative to oldfriends.co.nz would be useful too.

I guess so, he did mention about the color to me in his email, but TM has never contacted me and they likely already know about us, so if they were annoyed, they would have taken action by now.

I am going to assume that is a compliment. And I am glad to see you.

I wish my brain allowed me to remember which new names are actually old friends - but I guess it doesn't really matter, so long we remain our true selves it will all work out in the end.

Why would that be then? Different views to yours?

I'm not sure; they might just end things at midnight I guess.


RE: Trademe community closing down - Oh_hunnihunni - 14-11-2021

Not with a bang, but a whimper...


RE: Trademe community closing down - crafters_corner - 14-11-2021

I reckon the bastards will do it at 12:01am.

  It wouldn't surprise me at all. Miserable bastards.

Probably a bit of code, so no one gets paid o/t.
