I've been there and felt extremely used and hurt. And several others who used to post here did, too. You can't necessarily depend upon others.

> BobBob, as far as being 'protective', we are talking of a case where I have been slandered, and wish *my* protection (and yes, that includes personal distress and being hurt) be taken into account . Hence, since there is no proof of allegations made towards me, I'd appreciate if you take *me* into account. Slander is anti-civil also, and it is also illegal. I will take no further action, but wish (and I have posted so) the individual mentioned does not direct anything (posts, etc.) towards me, or use my name, or refer to me, at all on these boards. I would like to end this now. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Jay
