"they will implode and turn on each other"

Re: Who wrote this and WHY ? 01 May 2008 13:59:31 (merged)

Between you and I, I have rung a solicitor and he said even solicitors letters will be ignored and the problems you all have is that it crosses into Irish Law and Scottish Law.

To sue them for libel is very very expensive and these types of people will just ignore letters and have no money probably and you could end up with hell of a bill.

He gave me an action plan, told me to close the blog down and put up something that you are getting people to monitor these sites, they will be so busy trying to check ips and best thing he explained is to ignore and starve them to death. The problem we have Laffin they are doing it via USA blogs or sites, which often involves USA laws and they allow more freedom of speech than we do, and we have no control over these and also harassment is only really proven if they send emails etc and things direct to you in email communication or through normal mail. What they are doing is actually libel which he says costs one hell of a load of money to get to court if you can manage it.

So I have put that up, closed the blog so they start wondering if I am doing something. I know Bonnybraes1 all the time I was posting on that blog and you are posting about blondie, she is getting the reaction she wants, it might take some time Laffin but perhaps if we do ignore totally and they will implode and turn on each other. That I am sure of.

Best thing for you is to keep onto the police about the threats than Andy made to you and demand they deal with it. Go through the ranks until you reach the top if you have to and report all those that don't do anything. Because his threats were criminal and not civil.

"the thread grew and grew and the pleas were ignored"

Hi A*****

Thanks for your message and especially for taking the time to write it all down. Sounds like a big can of worms to me, and good that the rotten apple has gone.

I know it's easy for me to say try and say positive, but please try and think that you've had a lucky escape. I'm sorry that your personal info was revealed.

What made me so angry today was the fact that Beowolf opened the thread which would obviously instill panic and questions then just departed and left us all to it. If he had something cryptic to say, he should have made his post and locked the thread.

As it was, the thread descended into panic, nobody knew what was going on - it's really difficult when you're on the outside trying to make sense of things.

Despite repeated pleas that the thread be locked as it was going nowhere, the thread grew and grew and the pleas were ignored.

That's what made me angry and the fact that Beowolf basically dropped the lot of us in it.

Anyway, I think I need some time away. I know that people are paranoid, everybody's anonymous on the internet but I'd just like to reiterate that I don't know Janz and have never heard from her, her cronies or her forum. This is my decision - me, I'm just a Mum who has loved it on the 3As and today is a really sad day for me.

I hope you understand.

Sorry to add to your troubles.

Take care, A**** xx
