    A question about GFY Rule #9 ... "Proof or Ban"

    As a webmaster of an active adult forum I can appreciate GFY's Rule #9

    False accusations against a person or company. We all want to know what companies and individuals have done you wrong. Just make sure you back any claims you make up with solid proof. If you plan on calling someone a scammer, liar, cheat, or anything else, have your proof in order and post it with your claim. False accusations will be grounds for immediate banning.

    I believe this is an EXCELLENT rule.

    Here's my question:

    Let's say an affiliate makes an accusation against a large, well-known program and offers substantial proof to back up the allegations.

    Should the Program be required to offer any proof in their response or should they be allowed to get away with evasive answers that do not address the accusations at all?


    I think the Program should face banning .. or some sort of sanctions .. if they fail to offer any proof whatsoever in response to a serious allegation.

      The program is under no obligation to pay any attention to you.

      The rule is there to stop people making shit up and accusing someone of something they haven't done.

        Interesting point.

        You're saying the program has no obligation to respond.

        Okay then, let's say that the program DOES respond, I think there should be a requirement that the response be "responsive" and not "evasive".

                  It should fall on the accuser to provide proof or be banned not the other way around.

                    Correct.

                    If you are going to accuse someone of something, have proof and post it with the O.P. or , with allegation. If you do not have that, you should be banned according to the rules.

                    The rule exists because of people take their personal vendettas and agenda to the boards in an attempt to smear someone's name and business based on the "so I heard", or the half truths, third party stories, or making statements with a questions mark, and those similar type of remarks with nothing to back them up.

                    Hence the rule.
