My Fellow Deletees and The Cyberbullied Sisters

Blue .. I think I would pursue this.  Since it's the internet, you need to call the Feds.  Maybe call the Mounties too just for good measure!

love ya,

It was all done elsewhere.  I asked for an apology, but did not get it.

Althena:  It's Monday and you still seem to be able to post.  Did everything work out with you ok?  Just wondering since everything is so topsy-turvy these days on the thread.

I just might.  hehe!  You don't think libel is serious?  Who knew!

Bananas and oranges.  Only thing in common is you can peel them.

A deletee is one who is deleted.

It's pretty easy to prove who the DELETEES are ... just look for all the "Removed by the Community" signs slapped where their posts used to be.  

Everybody really needs to read the link River Rat posted on page 2.  We all need to realize that we own anything we write on the internet.  Once you post it ... it is there forever.  Sure you can delete.  But delete just means hidden ... it's not gone.  

I'm a good example ... I had Madalyn and all her posts deleted.  Now go to the Search button.  Type Madalyn in Member Name ... then watch as snippets of my posts show up.  They are still there and easily retrievable by anybody willing to go to the trouble of doing so.

Think before you 'speak' and you will be fine. 

blue ... I saw some of that crap directed at you too ... on here even.   Can't blame you for being angry.    But we love you and know you would never do such a thing.   

I suggest that you contact the Department of Justice here in the U.S...........Eric Holder is on top of everything like closing Gitmo and bringing the Masterminds of 9-11 to justice......

 Did speak to my Lawyer neighbor and just asking about libel.....stating that I had some friends accused of deleting posts by members of a discussion board by name and screen names and she stated that "accusing" someone of deleting would not be a case of libel.....that you would have to state that you know for sure that someone did an act when in fact you just have a suspicion....otherwise she said that a lot of wives would be accused of libel in accusing their husbands of having affairs when in fact they don't have any evidence just a feeling that their husbands are cheating...........

 but regardless good luck.....maybe it will be an avenue to find out who really did hack the other website......shokk 

Shokk:  Whew!  That makes more sense!  The law should not be able to hold someone accountable for accusing a person but they should have to have proof that person "did" the action.  There has to be some protection from others accusing us of things we did not do or the crazies would have a field day with people on the internet (even more than they do now!).  I think Blue has a right to know for his own personal sake, who is accusing her but if someone leads her to an innocent person because they want to get that person in trouble, then Blue should have to have proof, imo. 

Thanks shokk....good to know.

Edited to add....did you ask your lawyer friend about someone accusing someone else of being a hacker?   And shokk, I thought we were good friends?

Frankly I think that the "hacking accusation" on the other site is just a red herring.

Interesting that people are consulting lawyers isn't it?

(((((((((((blue))))))))))

Pat -- there's a big difference between not liking something and being slandered.

Apples and oranges tossed together and turned into tin foil anyone?

Removing an internet posting and accusing somebody of illegal activity are so totally not the same thing.

I don't know about removed ... but once something has been seen by numerous people the damage is done and the gossip and slander is started.  You can't 'remove' that just by trying to remove the evidence of what was said.

Wow

How many times does the difference between accusing someone of deleting posts and accusing them of hacking need to be explained?

blue - Exactly WHO are you asking for an apology from?
