Guys, Guys, Guys . . . you really need to check your FACTS before you start making rash assumptions or statements like this.
I know that this sport, and in particular some visitors to this site, have some major problems with FACTS, but here’s a couple to dash your earlier statement.
1. My real, and only, identity is not hidden on this site.
2. I did not cash at this year’s nationals.
3. You will not find my name in the top 3 of any of the results from 2003 Nationals.
4. My SOHO network topography includes 4 computers, each accessible to the Net via a proxy server.
5. The IP address revealed to the moderators, through this system, will be the same for each computer.
6. Everyone of my family, are all bowlers, have access to these and quite often access the Net simultaneously.
7. They all frequent this website, and quite often simultaneously.
8. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, after all aren’t we all individuals.
9. My family’s opinion does not necessarily reflect that of my own.
10. My postings on this site deal with FACTS (TBA calendars, entry forms and announcements, etc.) nothing more nothing less.
11. My postings, on this site, is something that I do not have to do as all these same FACTS are available at the TBA website.
12. I chose to do this to cater for the 1% of the nations bowlers that frequent this website.
13. The method in which I post these FACTS (item 7) is at Graham's request, so that those same visitors will remain active at totalbowling.
14. You might be bored with the posting of these FACTS (item 7), but if your view counter is correct, then your users certainly are not.
15. I make no commercial gain from doing this.
16. Graham's post is an infringement of his own terms of agreement. “You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-orientated or any other material that may violate any applicable laws.”
In summary, I have two words for you. I will list and define them for you.
libel \'li-bel\ n
a. a written or oral defamatory statement or representation that conveys an unjustly unfavourable impression
b. a statement or representation published without just cause and tending to expose another to public contempt
c. defamation of a person by written or representational means
slander \'slan-der\ n
a. the utterance of false charges or misrepresentations which defame and damage another's reputation
b. a false and defamatory statement about a person
Perhaps this site needs a moderator to moderate the moderator?
