Did Carlton get money from Fortnite using his Dance yet?
Lol
I don’t think that Carlton dance was a trademark
Its Jainas’s feather duster isn’t it?
Fortnite specifically used the Carlton dance to get money. As in, you had to purchase the dance. That is why there are like 4 or so people suing Fortnite over dances.
The /dances in WoW do not create additional cash flow.
That is the difference there.

Not a lawyer, but sure, you COULD be sued. Would you be? Probably not unless people associate you with Blizzand and you are doing something outrageous which Blizzard thinks is damaging to their reputation.
OP already got their answer a month ago. Someone decided to rezz this thread to ask about something that didn’t even have anything to do with WoW.

True.
But it’s turning into a nice friendly conversation. So there’s no foul play.
That has got to be the best thing I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much! Changed my life
If people want to discuss the fortnite dance we have the off topic section here.
That’s all I have to say.
Huh. I always assumed that they made it for the product. TIL I was wrong.
I don’t know. Something like “Sword of a 1,000 Truths” would be something to avoid. I would just go with “1,000 Truths”.
I know The Simpson’s are pretty cool about the Ned Flanders band but Blizzard today isn’t exactly what a would call a company with a sense of humor.

There is such a thing as “fair use.”
Your band is very unrelated, to World of Warcraft or video games.
Pleas tell me it isn’t “immovable object”, or “impossible force”, since those are physics/whatever terms that predate Wow (as in, what happens when…)
You also have to be large enough to be noticed.
“Icecrown” would just be the merging of two words. It wasn’t made up for Wow.
Icecrown, Andre Norton, 1970. A book.
It is a generic enough term.
In the previous post’s example, you could probably name yourself “Thunderfury”, but not the whole thing.
