[quote]FWIW I don't think it's necessarily bad to be from either Russia or Iran, and I would welcome more diversity to this website. I wouldn't devalue someone's opinion because they were from either of those places
R305 I wouldnt either, but for the fact that posters from either of those countries would only be here at the behest of their respective regimes, and doing their bidding. Neither of those countries are either free nor democratic, ditto China. Their ordinary citizens are under heavy surveillance and do not have freedom to say what they want on any forum they like they way we do
[quote]Also you "forgot" to reply to my comment at [R270]. you know, the one that showed that you don't have a fucking clue about what you're talking about, that one. Care to?
Other posters answered your question before I could get to it, and very well I thought too

and most of all R282 who has said it best;
[quote]I have no idea who caused what, but if I was the banker and I definitely didn't start it? I wouldn't go the police. No way. I'd just want the whole thing dropped.
[quote]Why? Because I'd have more to lose. And even if I knew it wasn't me who started it, the court of public opinion doesn't always care about facts. And the court of public opinion could destroy my whole life the longer my name is swirling around the internet.
[quote]I'd just want it to go away so I could go back to making my millions.
All very good points, which I couldnt really improve on, and I saw no point in repeating them.
Yes perhaps we should have had a more organised and timely response, but we all have lives
