The trademark are not able to register... this is true. <br />
<br />
The Domain reprap.com will be shut down in the next hours. I Adrian want the Domain, he can contact me.<br />
<br />
I also have register the domain irapid.de I thing this is better than reprap.com]]></description>

<br />
That's a good move. We are a passionate lot and we are trying to help the greater good, I would re-think that Trademark registration also, that's just going to get you into even more troubles.<br />
<br />
I would still like to discuss pro's and con's of Rack and Pinion on your interesting machine, but maybe that's a conversation for tomorrow.<br />

Personally registering RepRap as a trade mark ! - That just takes it to a whole new level of knowingly being underhand and outrageous, no wonder all the OKKA comments have now been removed. I did copy and save them all just before they were deleted, just for reference.]]></description>

&gt; I would discus further but I will not do that with<br />
&gt; people who insulting me.<br />
<br />
LOL, are you honestly surprised? Can you honestly say you lack even enough awareness to understand that commandeering the name reprap.com would raise the ire of the community? <br />
<br />
Listen, you need to learn something. You can do business in an ethical, upstanding way, and people will mostly treat you with respect and give you compliments.<br />
<br />
Or, you can be underhanded and deceitful and people will insult you. If you do not have a thick enough skin to withstand the insults (and if you think what is being said here is harsh, you definitely want to stay away from the RepRap IRC channel), then you should probably aim to do business in an upstanding way. <br />
<br />
Give the domain to Adrian, I will give you irapid3d.com, and you will go a long way towards winning back the reputation points you have lost in the debacle. Otherwise you might as well save your money, you will not have much luck selling these kits.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Yes, you were able to buy the name, just like you are able to buy other companies and organisations domain names .com / .co.uk / .org but you don't just go around trying to hijack a brand or a company or an organisation, don't you get that? ::o - what planet are you on and what part of the world are you in? <br />
<br />
That's what we are all annoyed about and now you have cemented your attitude that just makes me really mad.<br />
<br />
The domain [<a href="http://www.mcdonalds.org/" target="_blank"  rel="nofollow">www.mcdonalds.org</a>] is available for sale, but I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to buy it and start selling or even giving away Hamburgers on it.<br />
<br />
Open source is not the point here, you have blown it on the first introduction and registering reprap.com, thinking you were being smart was NOT a good move.<br />
<br />
Be outraged people, this is bullshit.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Lol, nobody bought reprap.com because no one was dumb enough to think it was a good idea to try to usurp the RepRap brand for their own personal gain.<br />
<br />
You are obviously new in this community, otherwise you would know that you are only hurting your business by using the domain "RepRap.com". Sure, you will get a lot of sales from the idiot crowd, the people who hear the word RepRap and just go buy the first printer they find. <br />
<br />
Good luck supporting that crowd. <br />
<br />
But anyone who bothers to research will be told by virtually everyone in the community to avoid you because you managed to offend the entire community before you even shipped a product. Your printer better be damn good if you want to survive with that giant black mark against you. <br />
<br />
The irony is your printer has a good name, irapid, and 2 seconds worth of thought would have told you that iRapid3d.com would have been a perfect name... Unfortunately you didn't stop to think so now that name belongs to me and will soon be pointing at reprap.ORG. Of course, I would be happy to give you that domain, all you have to do is donate the reprap.com domain to Adrian.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ maybe that domain name wasn't bought because most people had the decent feeling it wasn't for hijacking the RepRap reputation for commercial gain??]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I sometimes think some of the people in this forum drink a little too much of the ideal flavor of non-commercialized open-source cool-aid, but...<br />
<br />
reprap dot com. REALLY? Do you have no shame? Talk about pissing on shoulders.<br />
<br />
UPDATE: After seeing OKKA's post I am less outraged, but still.. reprap dot com? Just out of respect. Come on.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ It's official there really is a NEW! 3D printer every week at the moment, sometimes 3 per week!<br />
<br />
@OKKA - So you do realise that by obtaining the domain reprap.com and launching this printer you are kicking us all in the balls? :(  HARD ! - Or do you just not care? - Just in-case you do not see what you are doing - You are making it look like you are 'Reprap' In-fact to some people out there this .com will look more official than the real reprap.org - you are trying to get one over on all the other suppliers (even closed source ones) that do support the real reprap.org project and products that use it's good name - You are using very under-hand tactics and will not get you any supporters on this Forum.<br />
<br />
If you launched this product NOT using the reprap.com name and domain then most people would wish you good luck and remind you it's a good idea to go open-source and be part of the real reprap mission especially if you are promoting it on this forum. but you have NOT done that.<br />
<br />
I was going to give you some positive comments about the Rack and Pinion system, but No, I don't feel inclined to start a discussion now.<br />
<br />
You have posted this video and images in lots of forum places so do you intend to sell this 3D printer? - maybe a good time to give us some more details and answer the Reprap - source question along with the background to the mis-representation of you selling anything under reprap.com]]></description>
