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.

Are you suggesting that I'm goading or being argumentative by asking someone what they meant?

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.

OK. In my opinion Amaral, Grime, O'Doherty, O'Dowd, Sutton, Poulton and many others have also been maligned.

Posters are reminded that this is a discussion forum with rules. Comments should be constructive and polite at all times.  Goading, snide remarks and abuse will not be tolerated.

If the tone of comments in this thread does not improve it will be locked/removed.
A malicious prosecution for a crime which never existed. An exposé of egregious malfeasance by public officials.
Indeed, the truth never changes with the passage of time.

What would you hope to achieve by such an action ?

Desperation personified, but hey, if it makes you happy
Oh fgs, it was tongue in cheek - if you read carefully you will see that the initial suggestion came from G-Unit, that we should seek out examples of malign opinion on the forum expressed towards the McCanns and post it to back up the assertion.

Good question ... and well worth you should perhaps give it some thought in conjunction with consideration of the following

"All I'm going to say is that we've conducted a very serious investigation and there's no indication that Madeleine McCann's parents are connected to her disappearance. On the other hand, we have a lot of evidence pointing out that Christian killed her," Wolter told the "Friday at 9"....

I don't wish to be seen as goading or being argumentative, but I don't think I made any such suggestion.

Why post a question when you appear to have already decided what the answer is? If you think a post is libellous report it.
Have you heard of the concept of rhetorical questions?  I didn't expect for one moment to get a reply, let alone a straight answer.

Why are the Mccanns and members of their family and associates not on that list?

Why are the Mccanns and members of their family and associates not on that list?

I was replying to someone who had already mentioned them, but seemed to have overlooked others who have been treated similarly in my opinion.

And the officers of Operation Grange and various politicians.
Put all the names in a list and it would be a very long lst

Public figures expect criticism as part of the job.
Moderation
John has instructed all moderators to take a very strong line with posters who constantly breach the rules of this forum.  This sniping, goading, name calling and other various forms of disruption will cease.
