Changed file name by AVSIM librarians?

Recommended Posts

Hi,I uploaded a new file a couple of days ago. It doesn't show up in the front page yet, however, when searching by the author's name (me) I was able to find it. I was surprised to see that the file name was changed and in my opinion makes it harder to locate the file when searching for it. Initially, the file was under: "Delta Air Lines Airbus A330-300 - POSKY". It now reads: "Delta Airbus A330-300". Is there a way to change the name to: "Delta Air Lines Airbus A330-300" ?. The file ID is: posky_dl_nw_a330-300.zipThanks for your consideration. :( Hernan AnibarroFS RepainterYouTuber: 1DLFlyerSimTuber: AndyBarro2

The reason for the word POSKY being removed is because it is the name of a company and is a registered name. Try putting a product out and call it John's cokeacola or put up a hamburger stand with golden arches and see how long it takes for you to wind up with a law suit filed against you. We can not allow names of companies as part of the title. And Delta Air Lines is also a company name which is why it was shortened. We have to be careful not to violate any copyright laws.

Sounds like searching the file library in the future is going to be really interesting then, since I presume that Airbus & Boeing are also registered trademarks :(
