MTB_Roadie Posted July 2, 2014 Share It's like a 6 of the best in the principals office.He has been very verbal on twitter for a long time now, and I think the stage of "gatvol" has been reached by others. Lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sometime Posted July 2, 2014 Share So what is the point of the case then? It is not like you can get a criminal charge for defemation? Except if it results in the loss of business then you can probably claim losses regarding that? It's about a man's pride & self-respect & dignity. You should know there is no price to any of them.

Tumbleweed Posted July 2, 2014 Share I see at least one person who got involved in the Twitter melee has withdrawn his tweet after receiving a letter from Sadlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the nerd Posted July 2, 2014 Share As far as I'm aware in our country no one has been summoned regarding a social media case in defamation. They talk a lot on the radio on on the tv about being careful. Does anyone know of a case that actually went anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was involved in a case where someone was seeking damages over readers' comments on a news website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldron Posted July 2, 2014 Share 360 Life was a 3 man team. Not 2 so once again get your facts straight. One man was under 23 xco racer and the other two were elite stage racers that raced many many stage races together. You do the maths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know of a case that actually went anywhere?There have been a few arising from facebookhttp://www.iol.co.za/news/crime-courts/sa-man-wins-facebook-slander-case-1.1463004#.U7PAPdoaySNhttp://www.bandwidthblog.com/2013/09/05/defamatory-facebook-status-in-pta-high-court/ Thing is even if you delete your account, legal route can still force the company (twitter/facebook) to divulge your info to trace you. There is no anonymity online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
