I'm still waiting for you to disprove it. You keep going on about how all my sponsors don't like me. I suppose that's not slander?

loosely speaking

slander is verbal misrepresentation/defamation of character
libel is written

Bottom line in the Terms and conditions that all users of the board agree to as a condition of using the site:

"The Club reserves the right to remove, edit, move or close any thread for any reason."

Plainly visible in the 'Forum Rules' section (button on main bar) also:

Who exactly is "the club" in this instance

how many people have to object about a thread/poster before it or they are removed?

Personally I would remove every post with the phrase "iconic 916" (no offence Henners), but I cant, so if I and every other member cant censor opinions we dont agree with why can a priviledged few do so, just because they dont agree?

Come on TEAM, take a more dispassionate view, and allow the club to breath

Thanks for that Frank, it made me read the T&C again.

I can't help but notice the distinct lack of any provision in there to put forum participants on a "moderated list". Could you point me to the relevant section please?

Just butting in here, but the mechanism by which the WT moderate posts is somewhat irrelevant, provided the moderating is done within the spirit of the DSC rules.
Of more interest to me is how long Henry's moderation period going to be. Is it a set time limit, or an open-ended one? I, like others, miss his presence here.
It's not 100% clear to me why he is being moderated, although the reasons for this do not need to be discussed in a forum open to the public. Webteam, is this something that can be discussed by DSC members in the DSC only form? Obviously, non-members won't be able to contribute directly to that discussion although I feel certain that their voices will still be heard.

I hear he got six months but with parole he should be out in four

Anyway ... who needs the board, there are other ways to continue chat with friends and debate the issues of the day ... funny enough it all seems to be in a good and friendly spirit as well

Unfortunately point 1 is in direct opposition to point 2. I too am puzzled as to why Henners is being moderated. As far as I am aware, he hasn't contravened any of the listed items in the T&C. I am aware that he is not popular with the MT after events earlier this year.

Meanwhile, another member demonstrates flagrant disregard of T&C items 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and possibly 1.5 and is allowed to post un-moderated. The fact that this abuse of the T&C has been directed towards someone else who is not popular with the MT I find 'interesting'.

I certainly don't believe this is best left unchallenged, hushed up, done by PM or email, etc. This is a discussion forum, after all, and this matter is definitely worthy of discussion.
