wat. I always thought JohnnyUtah's real name was Johnny.

I'm pretty sure he got his name from 'Point Break'.


It tolls for thee.

Thanks to IncendiaryProduction for the sig!

Tom letting this show use the Tank logo is how NG can afford a new redesign

It's precisely because it's a monstrosity that makes us love it. You know how it goes.


This is my main NG account, but I post Clock Flash as BoltClock and co-author myself sometimes.

I vote, review and post in the BBS under this account.

it's obvious that the tank logo is very irrevelant to the show.
which draws me to the conclusion that the logo was plagerized by some ng enthusiast.
I don't think that anybody should be sued for liking ng, loving the tank logo, having an underpaid job, hating their job and thinking that nobody will care what they do because they're too small to make a difference or be noticed. Let that small person have their way with the logo you sure make his life less miserable with your awesome site and evergrowing portal.

PS: People tend to steal amblems and stuff in east asia. I don't think they are the least disturbed by the act. They even feel good about "knowing" something that they can use.

Response to NG tank logo stolen by TV company 2011-05-14 13:03:32


They didn't even bother to change anything except the color of the tank.

This isn't the first time this had happened. I remember a thread about an australian store using the NG tank a while back, but I can't seem to find it.

I wonder if that's considered copyright infringement, but is the tank copyrighted?

....yeah? It's the symbol of Newground's basically, and NG is a business. So, yes that would by copyright infringement...

The resemblance is shockingly remarkable. I mean, a tank is a coincidence, but damn.
