This news item just came in and may have implications for AztecMesa and similar sites. To be precise, the danger cited is that members' names may be sought as part of defamation and/or libel actions resulting from posts making claims about public (or potentially even about private?) individuals. Please keep in mind this ever-present danger when you post here. As we've said before, it's okay to be critical of coaches, players, even other fans as long as the criticisms are substantive (e.g., Coach Duffer's offensive system is outmoded and predictable.) and not personal (e.g., Coach XYZ is a pedophile.) www.utsandiego.com/news/2012/feb/02/golfer-sues-over-vicious-online-posts/WLR |

THIS IS OFFENSIVE. COACH XYZ HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT FAITHFUL TO HIS WIFE AND FOR YOU TO ACCUSE HIM OF SOMETHING AS DISGUSTING AND WICKED AS PEDOPHILIA IS ABSURD.

The truth will set you free! Unfortunately, the truth will not always prevent you from getting sued. You may not be sued successfully, but when it comes to lawsuits, you sometimes lose even when you win. AzWm |

Several ATalkers had this very issue happen several years ago. Not a laughing matter.

This really sucks. I was a big fan of Coach XYZ. I'll wait until all the facts come out first before I speak my mind on the issue.

You may not be sued successfully, but when it comes to lawsuits, you sometimes lose even when you win. AzWm elementary knowledge of filing and responding procedure combined with a well executed library mission and you could actually find a non-successful lawsuit fun and profitable. |

I was just thinking that Coach XYZ probably did rape our little boy too. Now this notice. Is SDSU going to reprimand him? I'd sure like to keep this out of the press. Did you see what has become of Cuse and Bernie fine? |
