United Nations Tells Ron Paul To Shove His Lawsuit Right Up His Ass

http://gawker.com/united-nations-tells- ... -509944619

Last we checked, Ron Paul had filed a lawsuit with the World Intellectual Property Organization (an agency of the UN, which he HATES) in an attempt to expropriate both RonPaul.com and RonPaul.org from his supporters. So how'd that all turn out for Paul? Not so well.

Both of the domain name disputes were dismissed because Paul still took his supporters to court, even though they offered to give him the sites for free (they only requested compensation for their very sizable mailing lists).

Not only did Paul lose both domain name disputes, but he was also found guilty of "reverse domain name hijacking," which is essentially being found guilty of wasting the court's time.

The court wrote:

'Respondent has requested, based on the evidence presented, that the Panel make a finding of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking. In view of the unique facts of this case, in which the evidence demonstrates that Respondent offered to give the Domain Name ronpaul.org to Complainant for no charge, with no strings attached, the Panel is inclined to agree. Instead of accepting the Domain Name, Complainant brought this proceeding. A finding of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking seems to this Panel to be appropriate in the circumstances.'

Lesson: Don't ask the United Nations for help after you've spent a lifetime bad-mouthing them, and also don't waste their time with your frivolous lawsuits. In addition, don't alienate your supporters by appealing to an international governmental organization (which they HATE) in an attempt to screw them.

"Reverse domain name hijacking" carries no penalty, but it just sounds painful.

Ron Paul Loses WIPO Battle Over RonPaul.com Ownership

Ron Paul doesn’t own RonPaul.com and he really wants to obtain the web property. Unfortunately for Paul the websites owner doesn’t want to give up the prime domain.

Paul attempted to win the RonPaul.com domain but his petition was recently denied by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).

The RonPaul.com domain is run by a group of Ron Paul supporters who offered to sell him the domain for $250,000. The website’s owners then offered the domain for free to RonPaul.org. Ron Paul didn’t like those offers and instead continued to push out content via CampaignForLiberty.org.

According to WIPO the RonPaul.com website owners have valid reasons for owning the domain. WIPO notes that Ron Paul didn’t trademark his name, and second the RonPaul.com website is actually providing useful information to the community of Ron Paul supporters.

WIPO also notes that RonPaul.com is not a product of cybersquatting, a practice that relies on buying up domains and sitting on them in order to essentially exhort money from other people and businesses in the future.

Ron Paul also tried to claim that RonPaul.com was engaging in “reverse domain name hijacking.”

In a final decision regarding the RonPaul.com domain filing WIPO writes:

“Instead of accepting the Domain Name, Complainant brought this proceeding. A finding of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking seems to this Panel to be appropriate in the circumstances.”

Ron Paul’s legal representation has not yet responded to the official decision of the World Intellectual Property Organization.

On their website the owners of RonPaul.com write:

“In his complaint, Ron Paul mischaracterized his supporters’ efforts, alleging that the website was a sham created only to sell merchandise. That claim was easily disproved by the thank-you notes the supporters had received from Ron Paul’s associates. Ron Paul also claimed that the supporters had only bought RonPaul.com so they could one day sell it to him at an exorbitant price. The evidence showed the opposite: The supporters had sacrificed everything and put five years of hard work into the website out of admiration and support of Ron Paul.”

Sounds like the UN just WIPOed their ass with Ron Paul.

hey just for my own entertainment, can someone please give me the rundown on how it was determined that Moggio is indeed that goofy-looking googly-eyed pseudo-beatnik?

Major evidence is that the guy named "Moggio" in "Vancouver", who posted his video to a drummer mag site, used the word "anyways" (misspelled as "anways"). The guy who calls himself "Moggio" (and "Disco Boy" on a Zappa site), was also fond of using the word "anyways", as were "Moggios" on Rush, U2, Concert Stat, and other sites (yes, I did some homework/research). After I pointed out to Moggio on Sludge that the correct word is "anyway", all the "Moggios" (and Disco Boy) quit using "anyways", and started using "anyway".

I seem to have made a difference in ALL the Moggio's grammar usage in one fell swoop.
What a coincidence, eh? :

These same "Moggios" are also fond of using the word "ado".

I'm not. And of course, they certainly won't EVER be able to prove it.

Oh, of COURSE you are!
Quit protesting.
You should be proud to be a Sludge mascot.
You'll get more poontang than a nerd at a Rush concert.
