You have to understand Spyro's personallity, he can't boss anyone around at work, he brow beats his girlfriend, his ex left him because of his insucurity, so he comes on hunting forums to vent and brag and to try and intimidate people.
I am on here to brag, vent and intimidate people? You are the one making threats on this board. You are the one making up little fantasies about me regarding pedophillia and the like. But I am practicing intimidation?
Funny since I do business with people on this board and I am using my real name... maybe you should become familiar with this...
WHAT IS LIBEL? (The American definition)
When an injurious false statement is made about an individual, the individual is *defamed*. Defamation can occur in two forms: libel or slander. Libel occurs when there is a written statement injuring an individual, and slander occurs when there is an oral statement that injures an individual. Since on-line is considered to be written material, on-line defamation is considered to be libel.
Libel occurs when a false statement is written which injures an individual by disgracing him. The statement must be about an individual and the readers must be aware that the individual is the subject of the false statement. Furthermore, the defamatory statement must not be an opinion, but rather one of fact. *This is true because . . . only false statements are actionable, and the Supreme Court has held, under the First Amendment, there is no such thing as a false idea. However pernicious an opinion may seem, we depend for its correction not on the conscience of judges and juries, but on the competition of other ideas.* (Internet and the Law, p. 162-163.)
An individual considered to be a public figure must prove that the libeler knew the statement was false, or had serious questions regarding the truth of the statement. When the individual that was libeled is not a public figure, the threshold to recover damages is lower and requires proving negligence on the part of the libeler. (Internet and the Law, p. 163). There have been some proposals during recent case litigation that individuals libeled on the Internet should be regarded as a public figure, thus requiring the higher threshold level to recover for damages. (See libel treatment in the United States, infra.)

If he wasn't an only child, that always got his way, then he was the youngest and was always picked on by his cyblings!
Actually, I was the oldest and not an only child... sorry...

To bad they hadn't stuffed you in a sack and thrown you in the river and done the world a favor!
Evidently, by the looks of your posts, they resesitated you after 30 minutes in the river...
I have grown tired of you...
