That's definitely more likely. Unfortunately, Swebow Day would need to use Hay Bacon because ponies don't eat meat :P

Any staff members as much of a coffee addict as me so we can have an International Coffee day?

.....WHAT?  I'm just trying to join the conversation  :P

..No Anya, Tea doesn't count....

Yeah I'm finding all this copyright business odd.

Seeing as LoE is based in Equestria... which surely is copyrighted? So all the areas in the game are owned by Hasbro? :P

There's no trademark or copyright on Equestria, if I remember correctly, since it's derived from the word equestrian.


That was posted about a year ago. :P But I understand what you mean.
Well if anyone uses the words "Equestria" and "Girls" together, they'll be infringing on a trademarked term:

Oh, and if you have any sort of thing that even looks similar to My Little Pony franchise art, including parodies, Hasbro LLC is apparently removing those from Youtube:

http://thedailyoat.com/2013/01/16/hasbro-takes-down-friendship-is-witchcraft-others-from-youtube/

Posting of Hasbro copyrighted content is, of course, strictly forbidden:
[ Invalid YouTube link ]

For information concerning Fanfiction:
QuoteU.S. Copyright law is quite explicit that the making of what are called "derivative works" -- works based or derived from another copyrighted work -- is the exclusive province of the owner of the original work. This is true even though the making of these new works is a highly creative process. If you write a story using settings or characters from somebody else's work, you need that author's permission.

Yes, that means almost all "fan fiction" is arguably a copyright violation. If you want to publish a story about Jim Kirk and Mr. Spock, you need Paramount's permission, plain and simple. Now, as it turns out, many, but not all holders of popular copyrights turn a blind eye to "fan fiction" or even subtly encourage it because it helps them. Make no mistake, however, that it is entirely up to them whether to do that.

There is a major exception -- criticism and parody. The fair use provision says that if you want to make fun of something like Star Trek, you don't need their permission to include Mr. Spock. This is not a loophole; you can't just take a non-parody and claim it is one on a technicality. The way "fair use" works is you get sued for copyright infringement, and you admit you did copy, but that your copying was a fair use. A subjective judgment on, among other things, your goals, is then made.

Applejack's name is also the name of a certain kind of beverage.
Besides, I'm pretty sure that, considering she's a pony, rather than a cereal, Hasbro can't get in trouble for her name.

I don't know where you are, don't even know your name.
