"Josef and Mark should go back to the Police Accademy and not to invest in anything." (suggestion)
"I note, with some chagrine, that the other post containing nothing but a personal attack against two posters still hasn't been removed."
...which someone subsequently deleted... It's clear to me that you viewed the post as a personal attack and "nothing" more... I added "irrelevant" because that's the slant you suggested in a PM, where the notion of personal attack no longer appeared...
Yet, in the case of a violation, far more prejudicial to the target, IMO, you actually re-instated a post, even though it contained Libel, personal attack and had already been deleted once, with Matt's consent, for this statement...
5) Suppliers are already seeking counsel for recovery. 7) Don't hold your breath for Rich to step up - his money is safely stashed offshore."(statement of "fact")
BUT you didn't take that into account, probably because it wasn't what you wanted to hear... So, now we are going again with another round comparing the same statement with one that's fairly innocuous but that you wanted deleted...
BTW, McBride is NOT a Company Director or Officer and the allegations cannot be disputed by other posters, who can't possibly know the Truth... One cannot practically sue every time libel is posted, so the only effective remedy, is deletion...
By deleting the post, the evidence still remains on file for the Authorities, so I fail to understand why you're so inflexible on this issue and taking an attitude contrary to the majority of the feed back you've received, including Matt's...
