I'm getting a digital recorder so I can record some of my music, and I want to name my own label...

...What's the legality of creating "Malarborecords"? (both micro- and macronationally)

Well Malarbor isn't copyrighted...

Well, fine then, how moral would it be to do so without asking y'all first...?

Perhaps the one you should consult is Erik.

Well, Erik does indeed check these forums, so he'll see it eventually...

Plus, this is a nice way to let everyone know that it's forming anyway :p

As the person who invented the name "Malarbor", I have no problem. The particular Malarbor graphic used on the forum comes from a Google image search, and the legality of Shireroth using it is questionable, so I wouldn't put it on anything for-profit, if I were you. No one's ever copyrighted or claimed the name, and Shireroth is usually opposed to copyrighting stuff anyway.

If you want to know Malarbor's own opinion, make a sacrifice in the Boomist Temple and ask him, and maybe the prophet can give you a response.

Aye, will do, Erik.

Shall I put a label on everything?

VISIT SHIREROTH! MALARBOR DEMANDS IT!

What about make it AmokoRecords?

...because it has less to do with Amokolia than it does Malarbor

And Malarbor works better...
