[QUOTE="Layander, post: 5103676, member: 69155"] I have never heard of lone wolf before today and so I was looking up army builders a few days ago because I wanted something that helped me with warhammer fantasy battles. I find this debate here. This is rediculous, your telling me that if I say I want a good army builder for Warhammer FB you will send a letter to morris? I know you dont want your product to become a generic name but sorry to late, I never heard of your product, but those were the first words that popped in my head to describe what I wanted for warhammer. That makes it pretty generic as I am sure most others have had the same thought. Let me say this lone wolf I will continue to refer to anything that helps me build an army in warhammer as an army builder, if its made by you or if its made by someone named jim. Sorry about your trademark but loosing it to genericy is a risk you took when you chose something that is a generic description of the program. I am posting this because they beleive they have the right to control what people in a discussion group can say, I can call army builders anything I want and its not in your rights to stop me. If you disagree send someone over to my house so you can interupt my game sessions as we talk about what army builders work well. From Lone Wolf ""Any website where users post information that uses the Army Builder name improperly must either remove the content or revise it, at their discretion. This often results in the content being removed, since sites are frequently reluctant to change content they did not create, and with good reason. The easiest way to avoid having posts removed in the future is to simply use a general term like "points calculator", list creator", or "roster construction tool" in reference to products other than Lone Wolf Development's Army Builder brand.""
