There were a couple of threads this week where we have had to remind members to be careful what you post, and even delete posts / threads.

To let you all know that we are not just being over-cautious, we have today received a communication from a well-respected firm of solicitors threatening legal action against us regarding another thread on the forum that they believe is defamatory and detrimental to their client's business.

Please think before you post anything about another person/business/company: if you cannot personally provide irrefutable proof of any accusation / insinuation, then DO NOT POST IT!

Someone else telling you something is not proof. Even something happening to you personally is not proof in itself. Something unsubstantiated posted on another website is not proof.

Please take care in your postings, and think twice before you post up anything that could be construed as either defamatory or libellous.

Thank you.
