    Trukz - Trucking Simulation

    Discovered this game called Trukz, and it's surprisingly fun! Fills up free time but also limits your play to make sure you don't get obsessed.
    It's basically a trucking simulation game using text and numbers and other clever features. Banking, Driving, Stocks and Shares, businesses, supply and demand: the game has it all!
    If you get enough money we could create a motorsport forums trucking company
    I see it as a simulation so I thought I'd post it here.
    http://www.trukz.com

    Enjoy!

    This is an old post but one worth dragging up again to mention an email I've just received, which speaks for itself I think.

    I've edited the post above but please read the below just to be sure what we're talking about!!

    Hi – below is a copy of a request by form I made a short time ago at Motorsport Forums for the webmaster.

    Please examine the post made here --> http://www.motorsportforums.com/foru...d.php?t=119245.

    The poster makes reference to "Truckz" in the title and then links to --> "trukz.com" where the actual name of the game is --> "Trukz".

    It is our feeling that this poster’s reference to "truckz" and linking to trukz.com blatantly uses the keyword "truckz" in order to infringe on our trademark. We believe there is no valid reason to make reference to "truckz" when the link goes to trukz.com ... and the correct name of the game is Trukz.

    We respectfully request that you amend the post accordingly. Failure to do so will force us to pursue legal remedies, including but not limited to pursuing TOS remedies through your server company.

    Thanks...

    Was on there for a year solid, but it does take time away from other things that need to be done.

    It is a bit like my real life..but I travel a lot faster in Truckz than I would in reality. Also, the crap truck I have in simulation I wouldn't be caught driving in reality....

    Does that rank in the Top 10 of dumbest emails you've ever received, Mark?
