[QUOTE="blade0817, post: 2251197, member: 322556024"] Yes I agree, those are very risky because Mindcraft is a name, not a generic word/phrase. Two things I would suggest if you really want to keep and use them: 1) contact Microsoft, tell them your intention and approve the site as such 2) develop the site (don't spend too much time/money because of the risk), [U]make sure you have a disclaimer on the front page that you're not affiliated with Microsoft[/U] and the page is intended for information only, and don't try to make any profit from it as that's a sure way to Microsoft to force you to let them go. I have done such a website working with a large production studio, I contacted them, they approved the site - even worked with me - but I made no profit from the site just did it for fun. It was still worth it for the thrill of it! :) These things should keep you on the safer side but nothing is 100%.
