IIRC, under libel law, it is the responsibility of the person making the allegations to prove them.
Too bad no1 isn't around. <- one of the few times you'll hear me say that! 😀

You are rhp's resident lawyer now?
What little knowlege I have of libel cases , the plaintiff needs to meet some criteria beyond asserting its untrue before the defendant needs to "prove" anything.
Nothing is as black and white as you seem to think it is.

Yes. Ivanhoe, could you please state for the record that you have in fact alerted this thread, in accordance with your recent appeal to the community to eradicate this sort of misbehavior.

The source of all this bickering is David C, his insults and his accusing me and RatX of having multiple accounts.
I asked the mods/admins to inform David C that his accusations have no basis and are not true.
In fact these baseless accusations are part of the continuous harrassment I have to endure, because I am an orthodox Roman-Catholic.
If you or anybody else feel alerting a post because it is against the ToS, please go ahead. It is your right as an RHP member. I will not inform you whether I have alerted this thread or not, because, in both cases, it would undoubtedly be another reason to continue your "investigation". See ya and have fun.

Nothing is as black and white as you seem to think it is.
Defamation consists of the following:
(1) a defamatory statement;
(2) published to third parties; and
(3) which the speaker or publisher knew or should have known was false.†

I am? Wow.
his insults and his accusing me and RatX of having multiple accounts.
I did? Where? Please cite an example of these insults, I'll decide whether or not an apology is appropriate. Also, please cite an example of me having 'accused' you of having another account named 'RatX'. I'll be waiting...
