The Denver office violates the trademark guidance

Question

The website domain name is always written stackoverflow.com (no CamelCase, single word capitalization rules apply).

However in the semi-recent Server Fault blog post, Welcome Shane Madden, ServerFault Valued Associate #0000007!, there's a picture, which implies it hasn't been followed by... Stack Exchange!

Oops

I don't think that "Expert" needs to be capitalised either¹

_{1. I know, giant S, please don't kill me.}

Similar violation in the New York office, as for the lacking space in the name Stack Exchange. (No, I don't buy it's the logo, as I don't see any blue nor bold in that text!) — Arjan, May 26, 2014 at 17:23
At least in the NY office it's easily solved, @Kasra. Switch off those beamers—they're not making the internet a better place, are they? ;-) — Arjan, May 27, 2014 at 17:28
I'm causing problems! We should definitely fix that in the next build (new Denver office coming up). — Shane Madden, May 27, 2014 at 17:36
Not sure how appropriate it is for me to do so, but I've approved your edit @shane :-). — ben is uǝq backwards, May 27, 2014 at 18:18
@benisuǝqbackwards Heh, I'm a little surprised that worked! — Shane Madden, May 27, 2014 at 18:39
@Arjan Might be different in this case as I have the sysadmin flag on my account, not sure how that is interacting with the edit process. — Shane Madden, May 27, 2014 at 18:51
What, @Shane, no shiny diamond for that flag? ;-) (Feel free to delete my comment to m0sa, if not applicable. And if you can!) — Arjan, May 27, 2014 at 19:32
(@Shane, meanwhile someone responded to my comment there. You're right.) — Arjan, May 28, 2014 at 4:41
Tell you what, I'll be there in October - will take some photos for you then ;) @sha — Oded, Jul 24, 2014 at 11:43

In answer, I give you a glimpse into the secret world of our company chat:

So, in other words, it's fixed in the next build.

Update: by now (July 24^th 2014) they moved to a new office leaving the bug behind.

Now I'm going to need to at least find a red dry-erase marker next time I'm in the office.

Just curious: what do you call the company chat room? :) "We ♥ Atwood?"
