I didn't see the comment, but I'm guessing allegations were made against a HM's family or forum member? DS are just covering their asses, and rightly so. If someone got hold of this and decided to take legal action, this site would very (and I mean very!) quickly get it's plug pulled. There are UK legal precedents for this so these days even allegations of libel are enough to make a web host take quick, severe action. In the end, the poster won't be in the crap, DS (and by extension, everyone who uses the service) will. If a moderator even believes a post may be libellous, they're totally correct in deleting it. The free speech argument is tosh, this is a privately owned forum.

The comment wasn't saying that anyone had done anything.#
Read the previous statement on definition of a forum. If this isn't, then it shouldn't be called one |

DS would have to face the consequences of any legal action (no matter now remote that possibility) arising from stuff posted onto their forum. Hence, it's their call. Your definition of a forum doesn't come into it, face to face it'd be your lookout. Hence your call.

Makes this place a mockery
How can you have a serious debate when views are muted? No legal action could have ever been taken. Cos as I said the comment never said anything libellious. |

Well like I say, I didn't see the comment so can't really decide one way or the other whether it was possibly libelous or not. I'm not exactly qualified on that from and I'm guessing you're not either. Perhaps we could ask PJ when he's evicted this week for a second opinion.
The fact remains, DS have to ultimately take the crap for comments on this site. If they're given due warning (i.e. a complain, comment, whatever) that something posted is possibly iffy. If you were in their position I'm betting you'd have done the same. If not, set up a forum yourself and I'll pop over with a few choice (and horribly libelous) comments about Jade and we'll take it from there. Anyway, it's not anyone had to pay for the privilege of posting here. With that in mind I think complaining about moderator decisions is pretty unjustifiable, even ignoring all of the above. |

Moderator is exactly the correct name for them.
It makes it a tamed debate. We'll agree to disagree Piggy. Appreciate what you are saying and although I can see why they would take a comment off, I do think it takes alot away from a debate. My opinion is nothing wrong was said and I think the real debate is should DS shy away from all taboo topics or not. |

Ironically I saw members here stating categorically that PJ is a "women beater", that Tim is Racist, that Jonny is a Mysogynist, that Jade has mental problem, they were said as FACT, not even with the hint of propability, yet DS saw nothing wrong about members airing their views about it. It was their views and opinions, just as this is MY opinion. Thanks Strom. |

Sorry to return to the original subject of this thread
but Adele did NOT look gutted - she SAID she was gutted and didn't particularly look to me like she meant it. I haven't found Adele any more real on BBLB than she was in the house - its almost as if she is doing and saying the things that she thinks she is expected to. The difference between Sophie on BBLB - calm relaxed and comfortable and Adele on BBLB - awkward, unnatrual and looking like she thinks she might get caught out all the time - is very noticable. I can't quite see Adele being offered a presenters Job (not that I think she is looking for one). Adele is not really a people person is she? |

Originally posted by observer Observer - just wanted to say, I agreed with you, but also had my post deleted. It seems its fine for speculation on what may have taken place in Jade's life to make her the way she is, and to call tim racist, and PJ a woman beater. But mention s***** a****, and everyone is up in arms. Which is the reason why it continues to be a taboo subject.Gosh, I just caught up with this thread, and people took things way out of proportion!!!

Originally posted by xstronix Your imagination is obviously off beam today ! This forum really is becoming somewhat of a joke; that is of course my opinion but the dictionary would tend to agree, "a public meeting or assembly for open discussion". That is how a forum is defined, I could go on further to define open and pubilc and to give the guidelines of free speech however most people I imagine will be familiar with those already. For the comments above my post I imagine will be deleted or censored or my user account frozen. XStronix.

Any chance of getting back to what the title of this thread suggested????
Adele looked gutted....................................................... In reference to davina out of line for saying alex fancied her.......the little montage they showed was rather convincing, esp his tak in the DR and his LOOK at the end!!!! So maybe adele does like alex??? Could the ice-queen have a real feeling? |
