I dont intend to get into a slanging match over this.
The posts deleted from this thread by me are some of the most glaring obvious cases of defamation I have read on this website.
It is fine for you to post quotes from newspapers and ABC telvision programs. They said it and it is for them to back up their claims or for them to use their not insignificant resources to fight any legal actions.
The additional comments added by the poster are an inference against the character of a person and the overall connections of a horse.
The inference that a loss of form by the horse when racing in NSW is also suggestive of foul play when no such supportive evidence was produced.
These are comments posted originally on this site making this website and its owners liable to legal action. I dont intend for that to happen.
Further posts have been a rehash or repeat of the same theme with the exception of the post critiquing the views of the poster about his view of the moderator.
As the poster does not know the moderator then such comments also are grossly defamatory.
Not so long ago people who posted such defamatory comments or for that matter breached the rules of the forum were banned from the forum. I have in recent times tried to avoid this action putting the comments down to ignorance or hysteria in the midst of heated debate. Some of the comments made over the past few weeks lend me to the view that some people are just not capable of showing maturity at offering a reasoned view.
I make no apology for the deletion of these posts and will continue to delete anything which is either specifically or by inference defamatory. I dont intend either to leave them here for all and sundry to read and make judgement on, nor to stimulate discussion about.
The unsubstantiated claims keep coming so I need to get back to cleaning out this thread.
