BOI® is now a federally registered trademark

Anyone using my legally protected trademark needs to be aware that they are acting in violation of federal law and take any and all necessary steps to remove my mark from your competing sites, forums, blogs, pages, or any other internet based vehicle that places you in legal jeopardy.

You are being given a short grace period in order to comply voluntarily.

good for you, protect what you worked hard for and earned!

Nice!

Boy Rich,you do mean business. Good for you. I hope they get the message now.

I would appreciate some help gathering up any incidences anyone may uncover of illegal use of my trademarked names. Those are "Board of Inquiry", and "BOI" in the context shown that is covered by my trademarks.

So if anyone knows of, or runs across any of these blatant trademark infringements, please report them here in this thread so I can keep a running record of them. A URL should be sufficient.

Thanks....

Here's one. I'd get a good laugh over this joke of feedback group being shut down.

Here are two more, although the one Dan posted I believe is the most active.

And another, although this one is apparently for Malaysia, so USA trademark laws may not apply?
