An organisation that shall remain nameless is currently writing to us regularly over content posted on Foot.ie, and there seems to be a distinct possibility that they might take it further at some point in the future; despite assurances that they're wrong, and we don't have any money. We're thinking of creating a fund to deal with this kind of eventuality, but would people actually donate do you think?

If its the nameless organisation I'm thinking of I reckon they would.
If said organisation is the organisation that I suspect it may be I'm sure many, myself included, could be persuaded to part with a few euro. :)
Even I would donate some money if it is indeed the organisation that I think it is.
I think that I think the same organisation as you do and I most certainly would cough up a small sum to help out.Quote:

I think a lot of us would love to see you stand up to a particular organisation and would be happy to help out.

We don't have good laws, in this country, when it comes to computer related matters so it would be very hard for anyone to be sure of their chances, before taking legal action against an Internet forum.
They'd be lucky to get a court order to have offending comments removed and an apology issued.
That said, I don't think there's any harm keeping the content in check, by insisting on proof to back up all allegations.
Count me in. It's actually something I've been thinking about since Maribor Kev came unstuck. I was going to suggest a general war chest to fight any unnamed organisation that may want to gag discussion but a foot.ie fund for foot.ie makes sense.
KOH
Thanks for the feedback folks, keep it coming.
I can neither confirm nor deny that the organisation in question is gingerrights.org. :)
adam
Am I the only one left with no idea who this unnamed organisation is, except possibly gingerrights.org? ;)
I'd say so, yeah.Quote:

I dont know bout any of you but I would hate if despite everything I tried to do right that people continued to slag me. I would try and stop people talkin bout me too.
And no.....am not ginger!
Yeah but what if certain people thing you didn't do it right. Surely they had a right to express that opinion on an independent platform made up of your best customers
Like we are all perfect & never make mistakes!
If it is who I think it is count me in as well!
And I see a whole army of my country men, here, in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight?
Fishing for brownie points? ;)Quote:

Mark me down for 50 yo-yos but only if its one particular organisation.
Count me in , freedom to express an opinion is something I will die for.
We'll keep that in mind. Given the price that human organs fetch, on the blackmarket, we may need to harvest your body for parts, to cover the cost of lengthy legal proceedings. :DQuote:

I think it's wrong that Dahamsta might have any liability for what's posted on here, any more than a publican is liable for a conversation in his pub, but while the law remains daft, I won't see him lose out to the particular shower of gombeens of whom I'm thinking.
A lot of similarities between the alleged organisations...Quote:

:D :D :D
Is it so dangerous that we must refer to them without giving their name?
Given the internet is a relatively new means of communication, legally speaking, is there any precedent to follow?
Dahamsta seems eager not to name them, and whether it's on legal advice or not, I think we should respect that.Quote:
