"Start by Asking Yourself What is a Supporter and Work on from There”

[G-Unit]

No free speech then?

Tut tut.

That should lessen the amount of  malign opinions given about Madeleine's family.

Excellent.

That's the sort of opinion I mean, actually. It accuses other members of posting evil, critical and spiteful comments about the McCanns.

It doesn't identify those being referred to, however, so they are unable to reply.

As it stands an unspecified number of members stand accused of posting an unspecified number of 'malign opinions', but only in your opinion. Perhaps you would like to be more specific so that your opinion can be tested? Perhaps what is 'malign' in your opinion is not malign at all?

Excellent idea.  Perhaps we could compile a dossier of all the spiteful comments written on this forum directed at the McCanns and identify the authors by username?  Luckily for those authors however most of the really nasty ones have been deleted by the moderators so probably wouldn’t really give a true reflection.

On the other hand we could stop making unsupported accusations.

Did I say the malign comments were on this forum?

And whose criteria do I use to decide if in my opinion a comment is malign?

Perhaps what you consider not malign, is indeed malign.

What would you hope to achieve by such an action ?

Desperation personified, but hey, if it makes you happy

I hope that includes unsupported accusations against the family of a missing child?

[Vertigo Swirl]

Agreed.

Would we be permitted to support the accusation against sceptics showing their spiteful innuendo laden posts?  I suspect not.

Are you saying you were accusing people elsewhere, not members of this forum?

You said that in your opinion, opinions should be kept to a minimum.
No reference made to this forum.
My reply was to your post.
And if I feel a comment is malign, then that is my judgement, my opinion.

What a novel idea.

Let us start off the posting day with the intention to be polite to all other forum members and to desist from posting anything which could be considered goading and argumentative.

unsupported accusations  I like that idea.

Why post a question when you appear to have already decided what the answer is? If you think a post is libellous report it.
