As far as I am aware the ents24 thing has been sorted out. It has been removed as it was not RL who put it up and the site has agreed only to put RL events up if they come for a RL email address.
The unsafe events were probably refering to the expo events which was discussed at an FRA meeting with new regs drawn up for such events.
Hi all,
First of all an email has been sent to those who originally received the email from Andy.
The Unsafe events he is referring to are small demonstration events we hold at the Expo and Memorabilia exhibitions, held at the NEC, Telford International Centre and London Excel. These are ran in a small arena using invited robots to perform almost scripted fights. These events have never been associated with the FRA (hence never being posted on the FRA Forum). We thought that the issues with these events had been sorted and are there unsure why the are still being called unsafe.
Robots Live were accused of using the Trademark Robot Wars on an events listing website, this issue we thought had been dealt with, although Andy seems to think that we have tried to land the FRA in some sort of legal trouble with the trademark owners.
Its a shame that Andy has felt the need to act in the way and not get in touch with us beforehand, and the roboteers shouldnt be dragged into this sort of thing.
Thank you for the positive comments we have received above and the ones outside the forum. If anybody has any questions or concerns please get in touch.
See you at Chester
Robots Live Crew
Alan, can you please explain the 2nd para of Robots Lives letter dated 29th September 2008 (to recipient unknown) regarding the suspected author of the ents24.com listing - specifically the 3rd sentence of that paragraph. Also can you please explain the wording of the promotional posters and flyers for that particular event.
Either here or off-forum - I dont mind either.
