2 points

1. defamatory content is only a grade 4 offence? I think that to prevent obvious liability to the operators/publishers of this site, such an offence ought be a ban, grade 2 or 1 at least. I say this because the effect of such conduct could be devastating to the individual defamed, and may lead to this site being sanctioned (the Hawk Headquarters incident was different but an example). Anything less than a severe ban seems inapropriate. if your concern is to do with freedom of speech and integrity of the site, then perhaps you should have a sliding scale. As it stands, the moderators cannot ban for defamation. That doesn't seem sensible.

2. the links to the rmit site don't operate.

p.s. sorry i didn't raise this earlier, only just became aware of the new rules.


I've upped the grade to grade 3 but if the person, which I think is appropriate. We take the view that most times people are unaware that they have defamed. If its an on going issue despite warnings, then we will ban.

I've removed the rmit links (which did work last month) and provide a link to an internet and defamation website that provides a bit more information.

Thanks for your comments

im not tryin to be a smarty pants here but how come the 4 letter word for human faeces is allowed but the four letter word for the male genitalia beginning with C is not allowed ?!?!

I would have thought the faeces related word would be more offensive than the genitalia word to the easily offended

actually grrofunger, your right. I thought the word that was used was describing the female genitalia. Checking my PM, I definately got that wrong. However, it was inapproriate from a defamation point of view. (not that I necessarily disagree with the comment)
:wink:

Context is important too.

Mr. Anderson, what if we plead guilty can we suspend the activation points and get a reduced penalty? :P

do the new guidelines still allow me to post with a undeserved air of importance?

I can't be bothered reading them.

Deej started TBV coz the forum on the club website censored everything and was generally crappy.

I guess this place is going the same way, the latest sticky says you can't even post rumours anymore.

I joined this forum because I was told it was open to all comment within reason (ie rumour / saitre / and alitle bit of niggle). I suppose I should have joined earlier when this was still allowed.

How do we self censor rumours and other snippets that come across the desk without fear of a shut out?

I suppose the Carlton Board have deemed it to be subversive.

I'm sure 99.99% of our posters are capable of operating within the guidelines. It will be a more pleasant experience for everyone.
