I just got an email that the developer is filing a lawsuit about their name, so they are changing it to - Villagers homes 4 rent. REALLY? I am a big supporter of the developer, but this is petty and frankly STUPID.

So my question is - how long before this website will be forced to change its name to Talk of the Villagers?

Thoughts?
The banner at the top of the web page reads "Talk of the Villages" with a small TM at the upper right of the s. My guess is that the website has permission to use the trademark.
