If you argued that society considers promiscuity to be delinquent, and that being a Lothario shows a lack of consideration for the well being of others, then you could argue that it was defamation. If it suggested an element of sexual harassment then it would be damaging for his business.


It wouldn't be me arguing it mind, it would be lawyers who cost more money than the adminstrator posesses. It wouldn't matter if he won or lost, he'd be poor.

I've been visiting a muso forum for about 6 years now, and if the libus thing you are touting were a serious threat I would be in guantanamo bay now getting water boarded. However I resect your experience and judgment.


Thing is, their are other derogatory comments about another establishment within this thread, why hasn't that been edited out.? you cant be half baked about policing peoples comments. or can ya........

Its only a forum and people do get heated, and say some really inflamatory things to each other. I have first hand experiences from this place. On the otherhand it's all part of it I suppose. Some do take it to a really serious level though. I've always treated these places as a platform to take the piss sometimes. But I wouldnt want to really upset people into wanting to persu vengence through the legal system. Id rather meetup for a beer or fisticuffs over the park....
I don't think it's libel if what you are saying is true, and in this case it is true. However, I will not publish the man's name on here. That said, he is something of a danger for several reasons. I am astonished more of you have not had horrible run-ins with him.

Hi Huguenot,


What's your thoughts on the libel situation re. BBW's comment, afterall an establishment is named in the post?..

For the record my original post was very firmly tongue in cheek (no pun intended) as anyone who frequents that establishment will understand...;-)

Whoa - that's a pretty damning accusation! Do you have proof of this? If so then surely that is a criminal offence and should be reported. If not....................

I think reckless or intentional transmission are criminal offences, so the police could be involved. If that's the case, better to involve them and do something to put a stop to it than scaremongering on a forum surely...

This individual has not had the chance to give me anything as I turned him down but I've since discovered that he's been with two local women I know and one of them now has health problems as a result. Wondering if he is purposely trying to harm people or he is just randy as hell and being reckless.

Randy as hell and being reckless is NOT the same as " an individual purposely spreading a

> life-threatening STD, among other things"


Such comments are inflammatory at the least!

    • Two men behind ‘senseless’ felling of Sycamore Gap tree jailed for more than four years Good to see these two jailed today for four years. There’s something deeply disturbing about people who destroy trees—any tree. Whether it’s a centuries-old landmark or a sapling in a quiet park, trees are living beings that offer beauty, shade, and life. The men who cut down the Sycamore Gap tree are a stark example of how far some people will go to lash out at something peaceful and meaningful. People who harm nature like this aren’t just destructive—they are often deeply unhappy. It takes a troubled mind to look at a tree and see something to ruin instead of something to protect.

    • What a brilliant idea. I hope it went OK, Sue. 
    • Yes, the appointments were scheduled for every ten minutes. And there is no waiting area at all this time  (sometimes for medical checks there they have a very small area inside with 3 or 4 seats). If you have come by public transport, you have to sit on the steps up to the van if you are early,  which isn't pleasant in very hot sun or pouring rain, or else wander round Asda (there's no cafe in Asda, despite it supposedly being a superstore). It's one in, one out. I don't know what happens if you are late, but I doubt they would hold up everybody who came after you in order to fit you in.  There was someone immediately before me and someone immediately after me. That's what I did in the end , so thank you for that.  I gritted my teeth and got some exercise. It wasn't as bad as I expected 😀 I did get a 37 from Nigel Road back to Goose Green on the return journey, though!
    • NHS subcontractors frequently use supermarket parking areas for CT and other screening. Easy to get to and park. They've done the same at Dog Kennel Hill in the past. Makes a lot of sense. And they ram in lots of timed appointments, so time critical is precisely right.
