The point I was getting at is if the site claimed ownership of the post(s), so would not delete them when the author of them asked for them to be deleted, why would the site not have some liability if the posts harmed someone. It seems unusual that someone could claim ownership of something...

Google Employment At Will States. If yours is listed, enjoy your time off . . . unless there have been several firings of older employees, to establish a pattern of age discrimination. I know it hurts to get fired, but it sounds like it is for the best, so find someone who appreciates you.

I am reposting this here, because it pertains more to this topic, who is liable for the content of an internet forum: Concerning cyberstalking and cyberbullying, which some states do have statutes against since the Missouri woman's cyberbullying contributed to the death of a high school...

Concerning cyberstalking and cyberbullying, which some states do have statutes against since the Missouri woman's cyberbullying contributed to the death of a high school cheerleader, let's say someone particpated in Internet forums . . . let's say this one, just so we know what we're talking...

Since it involves National Banks/Lending Institutions my money would be on the OCC, if I thought any government agency would act on it . . . which I don't. :cool:

Actually, this matter is a small part of a much more involved unfair lending practice case currently at my state's AG and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

I failed to mention that when we first bought here 12 years ago we did contact an attorney regarding the property contiguous to our back lot line, a utility easement that the owners of our property had maintained for many years and that we were maintaining. We were told that the local judge...

Well, thanks for letting me vent. I don't go there very often any more, and probably should have given up a long time ago. But, it keeps my Dad alive for me, to be able to still be doing something on his behalf, and I think he would want me to keep trying. I also like to think that others...

Since there is no gag rule on any of the settlements, the felon was my Dad's broker with Wachovia/formerly First Union Securities. He churned my Dad's account with inappropriate investments which turned worthless and then just wrote himself checks from both my Dad's checking and brokerage...

Yes, his family has the means to pay. A judge in the first probation violation hearing told him that he would spend six months in the County Jail for any payment he misses after probation. Yeah, I know judges say things . . . The new program that got him off probation despite not...

Good news first . . . the felon is making the payments. As of now he has paid around $90000. Yeah, I know that is more than one can hope for. ;) As part of the guilty plea, the felon's father, a wealthy businessman, negotiated the restitution agreement with the attorney for my father's...

As long as I'm in the neighborhood, I thought I'd report that I'm still working on this . . . 7 1/2 years now.

I've clearly stated my gripe and will let folks take it however they want. :cool:

It seems so obvious as to not warrant the energy to put it in writing, but most consumers who do not have a bias in the matter would find it shocking and unfair that the mere act of seeking information on how to improve their finances would negatively impact their credit rating.

Oh yeah, I have been assaulted by a neighbor, too, a couple of times. In some jurisdictions that is considered freedom of speech. :D

As my stepsister would say, "Can you say it shorter?" Yeah, I didn't read it all, but I am certain you are describing our situation. We have neighbor/property line problems, too. We have both one neighbor trying to use/take some of our property, and we are also in the situation of the...

My full Experian report shows 5 inquiries on May 26, another on May 29, another on June 5, and another on June 25, a repeat by a company that did one on May 26. It shows no potentially negative information. The latter report, from our bank over a month after the lendingtree inquiries says...

Lendingtree did not pull our credit scores. If that was the case, just one inquiry, it might have been OK. The problem is that 9 companies pulled our scores in a matter of a few days. I can see now (now that I know how it works) how that would be suspicious, and if I had been forewarned...

OK, you sweet-talked it out of me. :hugs: Here's my beef. Recently DW & I decided to refinance a loan on a lake lot/future home site down the road. I used LendingTree.com because of all their bragging about putting lenders in competition with each other. In total, nine lenders/brokers...

I didn't realize I had been, but, then, the level of mouthy we are receiving from our neighbor is much greater than what I may have exhibited here. OTOH, you can't be exposed to nastiness and hate without some of it rubbing off. On the Internet, things don't always come across the same as...
