[Buzzer]

...and will it be deemed as friendly banter if we were to write a reciprocal report called:

Brighton v Paki Town?

[Yorkie]

Would you have to .............................. KILL US?

No. I would go to jail.

You don't have to be gay to use hair straighteners, you know.

Reported to the domain contact, who's likely to be a techy in the parent company who may or may not care.

Footy Mad is based in Leeds, as it goes. So that could even have been one of their direct staff members - although I'd hope for their own sakes that all the sites are done by external editors like Rivals and SportNetwork are.

It's not legal online either (although I can't go into details due to Official Secrets Act)

Erm, anyone can look at details of any legal case as they're public proceedings. I seriously doubt that being homophobic on a website comes under the jurisdiction of the official secrets act.

You don't understand and I am not going to explain any further.
Libel and harassment are just as valid on the internet as in a newspaper or other forms of public access.

Yes, that's true. What I take issue with is where you have to bring the official secrets act into it. Still, as you say I probably 'don't understand' because not all of us mere mortals can hope to reach the intellectual and moral heights of you

 

[Yorkie]

I am bound by the official secrets act in my work.

 

[itszamora]

I am bound by the official secrets act in my work.

Yes, so you keep saying. And I don't expect you to break that, because it would be rather stupid of you.

But court cases are NOT covered by the OSA, anyone can look at them or even go to them. So that's why I don't understand the two points of your argument.

Unfortunate headline that, but I'm not sure a law has been broken as such.

Not all court cases.

What could be done about a website that harrasses and has printed lies about someone, when the website owner and admininstrators refuse to act?

 

[itszamora]

Not all court cases.

But ones about libel on the internet? I know reporting restrictions can be imposed sometimes, but I'm still not convinced by you going on about the OSA. Oh well.

incitement to hatred proceedings against them via their webhosts.

Oh do be quiet. Let it go and concentrate on trying to grow up and get a life.
