CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST RAGING BULL
I am a CEO of another public company where people continually post bashing and offensive messages. I am putting this message out to hundreds of companies that might be affected by abusive, degrading, obscene, hateful, vulgar, profane, racist, defamatory, or discriminatory language in postings.
I have problems with Lycos removing and disclosing who some of the posters are who hide behind their usernames. I want to hold Lycos accountable for the damages they have caused my company and my shareholders.
Have you had any problems with Raging Bull not enforcing their own "Terms of Service" on this site?
Have you seen abusive, degrading, obscene, hateful, vulgar, profane, racist, defamatory, or discriminatory language in postings directed toward you or anyone else or any company listed on this site, but Raging Bull has failed or refused to remove the offensive postings?
We believe the "Terms of Service" strictly prohibit such postings, yet Lycos/Raging Bull does not take sufficient action to remove such postings -- even when repeatedly requested to do so.
The result is that most sites have become, in many instances, a repository of misinformation and name-calling, rather than a place where intelligent ideas and pertinent information regarding companies and their stock are freely exchanged.
A "Class Action" type lawsuit is currently being put together to require Raging Bull to actually comply with its own "Terms of Service" -- the very terms under which all Raging Bull Members thought this site was being administered.
If you are interested in sharing any problems you have had in this regard, or are interested in directly or indirectly participating in this lawsuit, please contact me at ConcernedCEO@hotmail.com.
