Wow.
From site:
Bike SA Forum discontinued for the usual reasons where some idiots write idiotic things and spoil it for the rest. I do not suffer idiots (or rapists, murderers and worse - bike thieves) gladly, especially not when they write defamatory things about others and I get lawyers' letters and have to spend three years of my time, which is already so little that I cannot even read my own forum, defending legal actions. Apologies to the many good guys out there, but I cannot monitor every word of this forum. It has been so successful that it will take four or five hours a day to monitor it, and several defamatory things could still creep in, with lawyers letters and lots of time wasted to follow. Those who do not appreciate the implications of all this and will write nasty letters, and threaten to never buy Bike SA again and worse, you are probably the type who caused the closure. A glimmer of hope - maybe someone out there has suggestions on what else can be done with a site to which any idiot has unfettered access and can write anything he likes and I have to take all the responsibility, legal, moral, financial, keeping out of dark alleys and otherwise. Please advise. We are resurrecting the site for a day or so for advice.
All idiots please stay away.
