The only reason ive left this here so far is because it raises an interesting debate over actions on forum and legal implications of such actions, if it can remain on topic it could be quite an enlightening discussion.

well it could go to court if the person involved velive he was discrimanated against or anything he thought was unlawful if hackers from britain can be prosectued in theus for hacking into american firms and organisations then it is possible it could happen here but i highly doubt it.

if someone on this forum was perma banned because he was for example a muslim and it was sed and he/ she has proff then it could go to court and alot of bad things could happen ie forum gets closed down permantly person responsible gets sued or prosecuted and jailed or owneers of the forum get told off.

sorry if i shoved fuel on the fire

tekki is very correct when the speech is either defamatory or negetively effects ones reputation it can be brought to the courts as a lawsuit, however this is very true in mnay nations and in the US it is unlikely a judge would hear the case unless the person could show a monitary reduction because of the infamatory statements.

As of the original post, as long as the rules of the forum have been abided by and I mean the ones you agree to when you sign up then he would have no case. However banning someone from a forum is always a dangerous thing, but unless they could prove you did so based on religion race gender or something along these lines they would likely have no case. The one other hing that could make this type of thing an actual case would be if they could show partiality, ie someone else who did the same thing was treated differently.

In the end though ,most of this is just silly



I don't know, can you be taken to court for damaging the reputation of a made up avatar. i.e not a real person.
