Good morning all, yesterday a summons was delivered by the sheriff of the court relating to a high court matter between an advertiser on this web site and one of the forum/comment section contributors.

I realize contributors feel that because they are posting “anonymously” that they can say what ever they want about whomever they want. Please gentleman be very cautious about what you say about others. Don’t feel that you can’t be traced, you certainly can be. You may very well be very intelligent, but always know that somewhere out there, someone may be more intelligent. Identification takes place by recording the DSLAM IP-Address and Port number, which uniquely identifies your Telkom fixed line or your broadband provider. In this specific instance the party used an internet café and we where still able to trace them.

The ramifications for this person have been dire. His wife has obviously become aware of his punting activities and whether or not the litigation matter is successful is irrelevant at this stage.

When one is married in community of property, has children at stake, a huge asset base, a simple oversight could cause one to loose everything.

We have no choice but to co-operate with law enforcement or legal proceedings alternately we will be drawn into legal fights that have nothing to do with us. I’m not certain where the recent tend has come from to slander all and sundry for the purpose of entertainment. It has to stop or we will likely see more people getting sued.

Irrespective of the content being advertised, Escort South Africa is an Advertiser ONLY, very much like News 24 (distributors of the Beeld newspaper) or IOL (distributors of The Star and Pretoria News). There is nothing sinister or illegal about the adverts we run on this site. We fulfill all legal requirements to the letter. We have no direct interest in any business offering Escort services in any way shape or form.

Kindly be respectful and courteous at all times, treat other how you would want yourself to be treated.

Kind Regards
Eddie

Ah yes a crime mystery to solve here today.

Ed will not say to whom this refers as he has been served a summons and can not speak the exact names and or aliases of the parties in question.

So that leave it to the detectives on the forum to figure out whom they maybe. Since this happened yesterday the offending party may have still been logging on. So it will be interesting to see how suddenly disappears from posting. As well this is just twisted enough to make the news. Keep a eye on the news site, I'm sure this will make the High Society section.

I will say which ever of the Advertisers that brought the action, I must give credit to as this brings her real identity out as well.

My lawyer has often told me that the hardest thing to prove is defamation of character which in my view is very much similar to this case. Even if you have the proof it is up to you to prove and quantify the damages. Thats the hardest part. All I can say to both parties is that alot of lawyers should tell you that if you are willing to lose you shirt to principle then be prepared to lose your pants to costs. This is actually funny considering the storm in a tea cup its about to cause. Seems the CCMA case has spurred a few people on. Cant wait to see the outcome.

Hi all, I’m sorry I can’t not provide any further information at this time. I don’t have the time nor inclination to play silly buggers with lawyers. In these matters the only people who are guaranteed to make money out of this no matter what the outcome is, are the respective lawyers.

Indeed defamation of character is very hard to prove.

In this instance the damage is done, nothing needs to be proved. I think the person has obtained the desired effect whether intended or by accident. If a lawyer was involved probably intended.

Kind Regards
Eddie

Look.... the main thing is this guy is VERY aware of who He is...... the individual is of minor significance here....

This can only be a good thing, to make all catch a wake-up call on how to behave here.... discretion in this sport is VIP... !!!

It's so easy to 'slander' in anonimity without giving one fuck-thrust's thought to what the implications could be....

Clits has a point, this certainly puts the power in the hands of the (whats should I say now, I don't want to be sued) Wonderful Beautiful Classy Working Girls on the forum. For the most part it cost very little to bring action against someone, its going through all the motions that cost money and just by filing the action she gets the end result she wants the guy is exposed and possibly ruined.

We all know who are the women haters on the forum. It still would be interesting to know who got caught out. I bet he claimed not to be married in his anonymity.
