God told me in a dream that I own anime-source. I didn't want it so I just put it on ebay.Anyone care to bid?

I am only posting this thread here and not in merchandise, as a curio.

Happy Bidding!

ROFL.

I'm too scared to bid for that. Kaiser might appear at my front door with a bloody chainsaw and a hockey mask. =(

But seriously, laws on rights to sell such things? What if someone actually buys it and sues you because they cannot make that claim to A-S or something?

a-s is intellectual property so you can't sell it unless you have a proof of ownership...and the admins that pay server costs have receipts

dreams don't cut it; wanna settle this outta court or shall we counter sue for fraud?

law is useful hmmm....lol

God himself gave me A-S. I damn well can sell it.

Anyways, read the description

Look down on the bottom of the webpage. It says what rights A-S reserves.

If you have a bone to pick with the manga uploaded, you will clearly see that "All images and comments are property of their respective owners." A-S clearly does not claim ownership of them (unlike you claiming ownership of A-S). Plus, we're not selling it for profit (such as what you are doing). And we remove licensed material.

A-S owns everything afterwards, which is why A-S is considered intellectual property.

Technically though, you haven't infringed upon any laws because a transaction has not yet occurred (saying what you want is protected by your first amendment and my charter of rights and freedoms), but if it did and someone does claim A-S as their own using your Ebay receipt (contract), they could file ownership suits with A-S...which would no doubt be negotiated with out barristers that they have absolutely no case against A-S because you had no right to sell; in which case the suit would be directed at you, for falsely claiming and selling something that didn't belong to you. A-S can also sue for you using it's name (goodwill) without permission from its owners permission.

True xeno, but did subber really commit libel in this case? I mean...claiming ownership of A-S - does it really defame A-S in anyway? There won't be any charges unless there's evidence of harm to A-S's reputation...which I don't think occurred. He should still be protected under the first amendment because what he wrote didn't discredit A-S rep.

Great, we have more people stealing our reviews. Traffic's never been better.

Maybe we should sell the rights to our reviews >=D
