That would be a risky assumption, because it's not just the logo that is trademarked. It's the actual combination of those letters and ampersand. I don't know the answer, but I have heard two lawyers state that the CC license does not override a trademark, so you still should not use "D&D"...

My understanding is that by agreeing to the license, you are agreeing not to do that. If you do that, then you can't use the license. So what I've been told.

Which is so weird to me, seeing as how I live in Oregon, where one of our top products is lumber...

I was considering doing a boxed set for when I release Bubgears&Borderlands 2e. Now? Nope. At least not like I had planned. I still want to do it, but it's going to be a limited run (100 copies), and assembled by me, to keep costs down. I have equipment to do a decent sized chunk of the...

I think you meant to say "Bugbears and Borderlands" ;) :P

If they've licensed them to other companies, I don't think they can speak for the impact to those companies. They can only speak to what they create and distribute themselves.

Sorry, I didn't mean obvious at a skimming glance, I meant obvious that once you look at it, that it was meant to be a knight and not an iron golem.

Yeah, it's obviously supposed to be "knight". They just forgot to update the name when they copy and pasted.

I guess based on this, we should expect a new SRD shortly...Ooops.

The second listing is supposed to be a knight. Ooops. Now I don't feel so bad for missing errors in my own stuff ;)

User content uploaded to Beyond. Monsters, items, classes, etc.

I meant D&D Beyond. While a bit tongue in cheek (WoTC doesn't literally take over your IP), it's pretty close to that for intents and purposes: "5.2. License to Wizards. By posting or submitting any User Content to or through the Websites, Games, or Services, you hereby irrevocably grant to...

As long as it's not posted on D&D Beyond. Anything you post there becomes Wizard's IP.

Don't join the military. "Get your E4 butt to KP PDQ or AR15 ASAP.

I'd rather not. As I mentioned, I did it more than a decade ago, and there might have been examples of cultural appropriation of indigenous cultures before I knew better. I don't have any gross stereotypes or racism that I can see, but since I'm not indigenous, there are probably things I'm not...

Just got this email from Print Ninja (bolded in red by me) We wanted to take a moment to update you on the confusing times we face in regards to tariffs and goods that are shipped out of China. The size of the recent tariffs has the potential to be devastating to a business like ours that...

On paper, yes, but in practical use, not really. Here's why. And I'll use my B&B 2e project as an example because it's a great example of what @bedir than is referring to. When designing a project, a ton of feedback I got was that people wanted something built on the 5e engine to be familiar...

Keep in mind that "D&D" is trademarked. As far as I know, CC doesn't apply to trademarks, so even though the term "D&D" appears in the SRD 5.1, it's still protected under trademark.
