Since I keep being asked this


So even after announcing the reason why I rebranded my profile from PNM to Malrat, guess I have to put it into more context then:

Mickey Mouse is (currently) Disney Material, a copyrighted character, and PNM is just Mickey but with inverted colours, in which I do not own.

Disney can be very protective of their copyrighted material, and if I start to sell things while under the PNM name, main example being like games when I start to create original ones or as I continue to grow as a user, making more of a name for myself. I don't want to risk getting Disney on my behind with any possible lawsuits cause of those potential profits, which may sound stupid I know but you always got to be cautious when it comes to big named companies, especially like Disney.

Now I know the first thing that's gonna come to you guys' minds is Five Nights at Treasure Island is a game with copyrighted Disney characters, the thing is I'm not trying to sell or make profits off that game. And if I get told to take it down it's as easy as that (Like what happened with Jollibee's) , but when it comes to my profiles I'd have to go through every single thing on them to make sure the PNM character is gone from them fully, which would take too much time.

Not to mention if Disney were to take down FNaTI games, they'd have to go through the hundreds of FNaTI clones which exists on the website, which I doubt they'd really have the time and patience for that.

But I don't care if you guys prefer PNM over Malrat, Malrat is my actual original character for once, keeping the mouse theme from PNM as a call back, not as a variation of Mickey.

So as you may know, the Five Nights at Freddy's 2 Movie now has a poster, and someone released a funny template to add our own characters, so here's some silly edits
