Scaffolders Wanted

It's all my fault lads!!!! Nothing to do with it not to busy out there at the minute.....
 
Sorry to spoil your fun lads but that thread will never happen .

You can't post slanderous post about a company or even a person on a public forum,
It leaves you and the forum wide open for prosecution ,and can be used as evidence in court .
We have already had solicitors contact admin regards slanderous post and threaten to take it to court ,

You can however PM each other as that's private between yourselves

Sorry to be the pedant but if it's written, it's libel.
Slander is spoken defamation. They amount to the same thing though.
 
No probs Phil. Too few people realise the possible implications of 'publishing' their views online.

I've been in the forum long enough to remember the hoo ha with certain members (who shall remain nameless) threats to seek legal recourse over defamation of character.
I'm sure you remember.;)

And no, it's not slanderous. Thought we'd been over this? It's libellous. :laugh:

phil its a public forum,people can write whatever they see fit. can believe we are actually talking about court cases on a forum,who the hell would they call up to court??ridiculous. im happy to get involved in a name and shame thread,its for the benefit of other scaffs after all.
 
The point he's making is that any defamatory post published online can be used as evidence in the judicial system.

Won't name names but a few years back there was some apparently serious threats of legal action after one or two members said some reprehensible things about another.
 
Who would seriously waste time and money on a small matter? And how would they locate people? I had a warrant for my arrest for 3 yrs for something a lot more serious, I flew in and out of Spain on a regular basis and to northern ireland. In the end I handed myself in coz I won the hide and seek!!! They have bigger fish to fry in this world..
 
sorry but nobody is gonna make me think saying we are gonna end up in court over airing our views on the scaffolders forum is anything less than pathetic old wives tales.some old women on here need to get out more,these are probably the same people that call the police on the kids playing football outside theyr window haha
 
Anyway we can't do it so that is that... All agencies are still scum tho lol
