Honestly would any of us have been aware of it had it not been on a website? I would love to see them be forced to pay monetary fines in association to the misuse of the image, but it won't go that far.
One of the alumni from my chapter attempted to contact the band. He was very careful in his choice of words, which is not his usual approach. He refrained from vulgarity. This is the bands final reply to him:
"we didnt CHOOSE your crest, dumbfuck.
we created our own and it happens to be similar to yours.
logic is what ive been tryin to get through to you and all the rest of your buddies and obviously failing at
so let me put it in plain english..
the crest we are using is not yours. it may resemble yours in some ways but it's unique to our cause. you should relay that message .
oh and this one too..
eat shit, frat boys.
your crest looks like OURS .
we didnt come talking shit to you guys.
heed your own advice and dont be childish.end this pointless bullshit."
Needless to say he didn't reply.

Heh, if their crest was allegedly created before ours, then is this band made up of senior citizens?
LMAO
I would love to be a fly on the wall and see their faces when:
1. Myspace takes down their page.
2. Letters start arriving to them that are of a legal nature.
