This is the scene on the boards Waterford GAA site this morning

That’s a post from May 30th. Any idea what it was?

I’m going to implement the “genuine apology” rule here. Anyone banned will need a written apology signed off by their Parish Priest before they can be reinstated to TFK.

The Waterford thread on there is definitely one of the “spicier” ones, as Eddie Brennan might say. A few lads lobbing hand grenades.

What was said ?

Didn’t see the comment tbh.

Something about Dereks pecs

It was vicious.
I couldn’t repeat it.

Paul Kimmage antennae will be up

The aforementioned danganbu referenced Barry coughlan as being someone’s boyfriend and “being called up to the lake for a talk”, the reference being a user called crotty lake. He then threatened legal action over this personal attack.

A very serious incident I think we’d all agree and handled very well. You wouldn’t get those sorts of terrible insults on here.

You seem very informed on these instances.

The post was left up for a couple of days. The lad insulted was not one bit happy about it all.

How could it not? An anonymous poster suggested he was a boyfriend of an inter county hurler. That’s outrageous behavior. I hope @rocko will take any such abuse as serious on here.

Can you libel or slander a username?

No but you could arguably defame them.

No one would imply something like that here.
