May I post a comment sir? I hope you realise that your agency name is almost an exact duplicate of my agency. My agency (which has been around longer for around a month i guess) is "Mysteries Inc." yes that is with the apostraphies. I see your agency is called Mystery Inc. Maybe you saw the name of my agency, maybe not but just so you know that can be considered PLAGERISM. If you wanna talk about it here please do, if not then on PM you can PM me or son's of god2 (me and sons are the directors of our agency.) Now she is the one who let me know about this and I decided to post something. No, im not nitpicking or nagging or whatever but maybe you should change your name to something different. You can tell my agency has been around longer because it has over 5000 fame and 3 treasure hunts completed. I do know that plagerism on pretty much any site, is prohibited.

I was not aware of Mysteries Inc. until after I created my agency. I'm sorry for the confusion, but I don't see how it could possibly be considered plagerism as my name does not really match yours and agency names are not exactly copyrighted material.

I would be glad to change my name if I could. The only thing I see that I can do though would be creating a new one which would cost me more money that I don't have, so this will just have to do.

Actually, Ben has been known to change an agency's name from time to time, for good reason. This seems like a good reason to me, not because of "plagiarism," but just because I think the similarity of the two names could lead to needless confusion. So it's worth asking him about it.

Well I guess its ok. You really didn't know so thats fine. You dont have to close that agency and make a new one. I'd send you money if I could but you can only send money to agency teammates. Yeah Ben is the admin so he could change the name of your agency I suppose. You could PM him if you want to. Or PM me and I'll try and help you come up with a new name for your agency, then you could PM ben and ask him to change it.

I posted a message in the Subscriber Support page about changing the name of my agency, so hopefully that will help. I don't know who Ben is or how to PM him.

go to send private message and write in the search sleuthadmin then pm him him. Also however I believe you can change the name of your agency on your own just go to the controls and you'll find the link.
