NEMO.BOFH Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Hehe welcome to internet.. this is indeed something of the most stupid i have ever come across in my life using the interwebs lol, people should go out and take some fresh air and not be whining about law suits for some bull shit on a forum xD :drama: :drama: E-DramaWe however have to take it serious, until we know what the deal is. Please respect that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEMO.BOFH Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 We have so many people on this forum, yet none of you are lawyers?! Me wonders why I found out from a lawyer friend that if the statement is TRUE it can not be seen as slander or libel. "He is such a wanker" is hard to really prove or not hehehe. Noone is going to admit in court how much he wanks.... Anyways, still looking into the matter with the very big looking-glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEMO.BOFH Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Sure i respect it but still it is a new thing for me, never ever hear about anything similar over the years. Anyways good luck. Google it, its very fuzzy though. First of all, its a very long process, and it will cost you a LOT of money to sue someone for libel on an internet-forum. Laws differ from country to country, and the EU has not yet decided on how it shall work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exotic Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Actually i can totally understand the context in which this step is being taken. A social networking site has been asked to shut down by a political group because of some defamatory remarks about Maratha warrior-king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj , the person after whom the outfit was formed. Ex-members / banned members in a way have nothing to do with the site and can demand action to be taken against the particular portal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I found out that you can say everything you want against people that have a public face. You can say "George Bush is a son of a bitch that fucks with donkeys" without getting into trouble.

Actually the reason you can say it is because its true. Barbara is a bitch and George likes to fuck donkeys (and Dick Cheney likes to suck the donkey off while he does it).

Jikkenteki Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I read the posts in question before they were all hidden and there was nothing that would count as libel in them. People expressing their opinions on someone's personality, yes. People saying they wouldn't support that persons PUBLIC efforts because of their personality, yes. But anything resembling libel? No way, no how from the point of view of the law as viewed in the US as I understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
