People have a right to an opinion and to express that opinion,however they do not have the right to use forums like hotcopper ,ozestock etc to make unproven accusations or to use foul language on such forums....
I can sympathise with you, CN4886.
I've been posting on these & other forums since January 2000 & over this time I've witnessed some very unpleasant posts from no doubt some very unpleasant people.
The fact of the matter is that on public forums we interact with people that ordinarily we'd quickly cross the street to avoid in real life if ever we saw them coming.
Anyone can post here - schizos; nutters; paedophiles - all manner of assorted loonytoons in fact.
Sad but true. That's why we have the "ignore" button, I guess - although I must say that over the past 3.5 years, I've never personally ignored anyone although from time to time I've been sorely tempted to.
