Hi Elaine,
Is anyone opening up a new website? I wouldn't even know where to start..... what about the other site ZNet or something??
No need for a new or different website.....Just think about it for a minute:
We are here, still talking about it and can still exchange the same information. All that is asked is that we be more aware of slipping from factual into what could be constued as defamatory.
In other words, "This company has not replied as promised" or "I feel very let down by this company`s attitude on the telephone" or "I don`t believe a word they say anymore" are your opinions and facts around the issue.
However, saying that a company company, eg, `XYZ` is running a con or s-c-a-m is not ok and could give them ammunition. Neither is it alright to specify individual names or contact numbers, even if they are already in the Public domain.
As was made clear by Van, the original topic has not been deleted, but taken down for the HT lawyers to go through following a threat by Rise Travel that they might consider legal action.
Don`t let`s talk like victims who have been beaten.....this action is cautionary and the Legal Eagles may well come back with the majority of previous posts being ok. There were only a few that I saw which could possibly be considered vaguely unsupported but they EVEN were only as a result of the frustrations caused by substantiated grievances amongst contributors.
This is the way people tend to go these days....as soon as someone shouts "Lawyer" everyone assumes they must have the high ground.
As I believe the Law to stand, we are still innocent until proven guilty and the first person to shout is not necessarily the innocent party.
THESE ARE OF COURSE, ONLY MY PERSONAL OPINIONS AND INTERPRETATION OF THE CURRENT SITUATION. I DO NOT REPRESENT HOLIDAY TRUTHS IN ANY WAY.
