pondoklabu - Hope you don't mind me suggesting you mug-up on the laws of libel, as practiced and applied in the UK, USA, Australia for example and the responsibilities of a bulletin board owner/administrator to ensure that no libellous comments are allowed to remain in public view any longer than a reasonable time to allow for the board operators to act to remove them. If libellous comments are allowed to remain then the BB owners and operators become liable in law and that could cost millions.
