Factual description removed by Consumer Action Group management as 'libellous'

Zedres · 13th February 2009, 02:16

Hi all - Forum Management/CAGbot were right - comments removed were indeed libellous, I'm really sorry. I was overstressed and panicking myself as when I was writing that post, I was convinced my description was factual.... putting increasing pressure on myself and on people with no serious reason...

It wasn't factual - I was simply talking with the wrong people. My request is now being dealt with and I'll receive my bills shortly - pls see link:

The site team have to err on the side of caution in order to avoid litigation. We simply don't have the resources to risk a court case, even if we can prove the accuracy of the post in court.

Was the edited word "stolen" by any chance?

If no, then don't read what follows, it's irrelevant, up to a point, the rule of thumb to libellous comments still applies.

If yes, then it is libellous. "stealing" indicates a voluntary and permanent intent to deprive, and can only be established by a court of law. Until such time a judge says it was theft, then you would have to qualify your statement by saying "allegedly" before each and every one of those statements.

I have to agree with the others on this. What you have said is your interpretation of things and not 'fact'.
