The resolution seems to require action from the interested parties, not just anybody posting on GFY. I'm betting those interested parties have not yet taken those steps.
Despite this fact, here we are in a different thread where there is an announcement about a new hire. You're choosing to again hijack the thread for the sake of drawing attention to yourself with the tired old GFY trick of "I will post negative things in all your threads until you bow down to my glory" ... but honestly, I think this approach just makes you look unprofessional.
It makes perfect sense that if there is a copyright concern, the INTERESTED PARTIES initiate the inquiry. You're trying to slam a company for not taking an immediate reaction based on some post some person made on a chat board. While it may be possible that the situation is as black and white as you seem to think it is with respect to these domain names, it's also possible that there's more to it than your exhaustive investigation has uncovered. THIS is why there are policies and procedures that need to be followed for situations like this that extend beyond simply being reactionary to bellyachers on GFY.

Have you looked at the last thread posted? No? Then please read it before you tell me what did and did not transpire. If you did read it then you may also find it perfectly logical that I ask this question again since when first queried the OP did not give this reason straight away. He gave me some song and dance about querying his database etc. and then ended up calling me a troll. Uncalled for and highly unprofessional.
My intention isn't to "ruin" this thread, when in fact I have no opinion of Richard at all. He seems like a nice guy but I do not know him personally. The ONLY time I have interacted with him was when I signed up to use YNot Mail and he was pleasant to work with.
If I sold tennis shoes and some manufacturer tried to make me carry their brand calling it Nikee, I know what I'd do so please don't tell me that the people responsible for the brand should chase this up. How about showing a modicum of responsibility and ethics or is that notion totally alien to you?
As for wanting to draw attention to myself, please, I've been here since 2001 and have just over 1000 posts; I'm hardly trying to draw attention to myself. I'm pretty sure you've come across that type in your years on GFY but I'm not one of them.
