^I'm also not a lawyer and my knowledge of trademark laws is almost non-existant but I don't think a product's trademark is the same as a porn performer's name. That said. Does it really matter if DP or any studio is in the wrong when they tell one of their leaving contract star that she can't use her stage name? Yes the girl can go to court but that cost a lot of money. Money that the girl more than likely doesn't have so you have to rely on a lawyer willing to work pro bono. I'm sure that a girl could find one but it's unlikely that the case would be heard in the near futur and I don't think any lawyer will wait the number of months and more likely years it takes before they go to court before getting paid. Even if the lawyer does decide to stick around than there is a gigantic chnace that whatever compensation the girl gets will wind up in the lawyer's pocket for services rended.
I think that any girl willing to work in porn after leaving DP doesn't need to take her name with her if it's going to cause a problme because her fans will always find her. I don't care if Stoya leaves DP and can't take her name with her because even if she gets called Soya or whaterver name she picks because I will still buy a movie that she stars in.

I think Stoya's name is trademarked. DP often puts a little TM after her name when using it in print.

Stoay_TM.jpgInterestingly, there may have been some changes recently. On "Code of Honor," there are trademark notices for Riley and Selena Rose, a notice of registration for Jesse Jane, and nothing for Stoya and Kayden Kross.

Edited to add Code of Honor stuff.

Sorry that I hurt your delicate sensibilities.
If you like Robby D.'s direction then good for you.
I don't.
Isn't it great we can have different opinions and not resort to juvenile thing like this:
Oh, wait....

Oh come on. There's difference of opinion, and then there's posting the same brief "Robby D sucks" thing in every thread related to Digital Playground ad nauseum.
The way DP shoots sex in their movies frustrates me too. I've made that point in their thread and elsewhere on this board. And so have many others. Hence the dead horse.
Anyway, I intended my post to be more lighthearted than it was received, so sorry if it struck a nerve.

^^^^
CummingLinguist, the reason it's appropriate to put a TM after Stoya's name is that it IS trademarked. By Stoya.
It's DP's concern if they sometimes use it, or sometimes don't. I don't expect Stoya gets too upset, as long as her fees from DP keep coming.

^ Yes I know. In fact, that was my exact point.
I was responding to pat362 who said that a performer's name wasn't a trademark. While this may be true in general, Stoya's name is trademarked.
Earlier I wrote a long post arguing that even if she had never registered the trademark, she would still own it.

Hi I have been looking for a title called "riley loves war machine" from digital playground which was meant to come out in 2009.
I saw the news at avn (http://business.avn.com/articles/video/Digital-Playground-s-War-Machine-Debuts-in-January-368588.html) that it has been filmed, but there is no sign of it on digital playground.
Has this film even been filmed and is there any chance of it being released soon?

It was never released. It was filmed. Promotional pics for it can be found online. No need to post the same question four times across the board.

CummingLinguist, apologies if I interpreted your post incorrectly - my bad. I just noted the use of the word "think" in your comment so I thought you weren't sure. I was just 100% confirming it.

I've been waiting so long for Riley to do genuine hardcore, it will be interesting to see how she fucks without so much staging. She's got the most tremendous body, just waiting to be defiled in so many ways.

I'd like to see Riley work up a sweat fucking. Even after they've been fucked, the DP girls look like the hair and makeup guy touched them up during the shoot. It's so unnatural.
Can you imagine Riley in Manuel's Raw series? She looks even better with minimal makeup. You would finally get to see her fuck naturally.

Not always, there are counter-examples for DP scenes. But I agree: when it looks that way, it rather takes away from the heat of the scene than adding anything.
That is such a great idea... worth dreaming about it (and probably that's the only thing we can do about it *sigh*)

I see there's a lot of Riley experts here. Can anyone please help me find any scenes where she licks/eats another girl's ass? Or anything anal-related with her. I know she didn't do a b/g anal yet so i mean lesbian stuff.
Also, what is the "nastiest" thing you ever saw her do?

In the same scene as the butt plug, Riley rims Katsuni. It's a 3-some with James Deen.

Riley's "The Girlfriend Exchange" which comes out today, was filmed in April of 2012. It's 2+ weeks past ILOVERILEYSTEELE's project info date, and 5 days past my guess of when we'd hear something (and we have no idea if the Riley posting earlier in the thread was even Riley).
I'm thinking she's retired. If so, she'll be missed.

In general? His twitter says at Sexpo South Africa with BiBi.
Or why isn't he posting here? Probably has something to do with a few posters using every possibility they can to fill up the board with complaints about DP, so why come by to swallow s**t in what appears to be a useless outreach project? Surprising none of them have chimed in here, yet.
Oh, wait. It took 24 whole minutes for one of them to chime in.

^I would say that the main reason why we are talking about anyone but Riley in her own thread is the clue that no one knows what's happening with her. Mind you isn't that the case for most DP contract stars?

^ I hate to state the obvious, but Riley's original twitter account isn't back, and RileySteeleXXX seems to:
1) Have forgotten her ADT password, and
2) Didn't contact Janitor or Drew about resetting her original password.
Granted "Riley Steele" only posted on ADT 303 times, so it's possible that she forgot her password. Given that she joined in 2008 when she was under contract with Digital Playground, it's also possible that she doesn't have her old email address. But I'm skeptical.

^ Well, if she has left Digital Playground she probably isn't allowed to use the "Riley Steele" name anymore. That may be the reason she's going by just "Riley" now.
I remember when Jesse Jane left DP for like a minute and a half she was using just the "Jesse" name not "Jesse Jane".
I could be wrong, we'll see.

Good points. Without any kind of verification we really don't know what's up, but I'm sure the mods will step in if in fact this is a Riley impersonator. After all you shouldn't just be able to pretend you're a porn star when you're a wanker living at home in the basement.

Teagan and her husband are both following the new Riley twitter, so I'm leaning towards thinking it's legit. Also leaning towards thinking Riley will be shooting for Adam & Eve in the near future.

If i had to hazard a guess i would say that it's a fake account. The account on ADT posted back on the 2nd of Feb that within a week there would be big news,and as of yet we have heard nothing
I think if it was the real riley she would be trying to promote herself as just riley or if there was a name change we would of heard something by now.
Only 7 posts from that account so far and nothing of any importance,also is still using the name steele on the account.
Way to suspicious at the moment for me to get my hopes up,but i have a feeling it is just some troll looking for attention.
I just think that if it was the real riley she would be in contact with her fans a lot more to keep them up to date
and keep the interest.
