Brett Tabke has threatened legal action against the non-profit LondonSEO group for allegded trademark violation for use of the phrase ‘PubCon’ on the site.

Shortly before sending the threatening email he posted comments on the site under the alias ‘BoboTheCat’:

# BoboTheCat:

btw - pubcon is trademark owned by webmasterworld inc I believe.

A quick Google of ‘BoboTheCat’ turned up this WMW profile which indeed seems to be Tabke: “… been at it since `94 ( BBS’s since ‘85 )”.

The funny bit is that BoboTheCat posts in his own forum under that alias posing as a newbie thinking of going to his first pubcon in Boston.

Hahhahahaha!
