This is awesome Rodney, this means I already copyrighted a bunch of made up words... Like prevenge - which is basically when you take revenge against someone before they even hurt you, because you know they will.

Sorry, @meno, you can't copyright a word, only an expression of ideas.
To protect a word, you must trademark it, and that's costs serious money in every jurisdiction you want to protect it in. Further, the word must not be trademarked by anyone else, and it cannot be generic, like say "restaurant." It has to be unique, like "McDonald's" And lastly, it has to be trademarked for a field, say "entertainment." So someone else can trademark the same word for another use that is outside of the scope of the use you trademarked the word for.
So no, you didn't trademark or copyright that word. Sorry dude. :)
