Ubisoft issues cease-and-desist over Jade Raymond webcomic
We all know and agree how much of an eye-candy Ubisoft Montreal’s game producer Jade Raymond is. But you better keep those silly little admirations and fantasies of yours in check because one website got into trouble after hosting an offsite link to a webcomic depicting a rather raunchy cartoon version of Miss Jade Raymond.
Ubisoft sure was furious. Read more about their demands and the response of the site owner in the full article.
We all know and agree how much of an eye-candy Ubisoft Montreal’s game producer Jade Raymond is. But you better keep those silly little admirations and fantasies of yours in check because one website hosted an offsite link to a webcomic depicting rather raunchy cartoon version of Miss Jade Raymond.
To put it simply, the Ubisoft hottie was drawn to be offering a — shall we say “a vast range of service” – in order to get guys to buy the game. Another thing that probably caught Ubisoft’s ire is the addition of Assassin’s Creed (PS3, Xbox 360, PC) logo.
Due to these offenses, Ubisoft is currently threatening that it will take legal actions against the website if the following conditions will not be met accordingly and immediately:
- Permanently remove the Image from your Site, databases and servers and prevent any further uploading or display thereof
- Permanently cease and desist all unauthorized use and hosting of images using the ASSASSIN’S CREED mark and Ms. Raymond’s name and/or likeness
- Provide us with the name and contact information of the person who originally created and/or posted the Image
- Complete, execute, and return to me the enclosed Declaration by November 16, 2007 to confirm that you are complying with Ubisoft’s demand
The owner of the website was quick to respond to this by removing the image from their site, forums, and servers. The owner addressed then its members and said:
I don’t know what they’re talking about here but it probably relates to you guys and even if it doesn’t, it’s still your fault and I’m furious here and I’ll never forgive you in a thousand years or in a million years or a thousand million years ever. I’m shutting this forum down and replacing it with a Neopets trainer guide.
