		+
		+	I have to ask.... If you were trying to be "nice", what good is deleting
		+	my name from the post if you placed a link to it through the legal threat
		+	page, now the 4th spot on a google search of my name. Brilliant.
		+
		+	JUST FOR THE RECORD... I NEVER had any intention whatsoever or suggested that
		+	any action was to be taken against compsci or any of its creators/admins on my
		+	behalf. The issue here is directly related to user zeldamaster1230. Clearly the
		+	comments made by user zeldamaster1230 are beyond "opinion". They are FALSE
		+	allegations aimed at potentiating charges of crimial harassment and threatening
		+	bodily harm. Should I happen to find out who this zeldamaster1230 is, I will be
		+	sure to seek any and all retribution afforded by me through the law. Spreading
		+	lies of such nature is punishable under federal law, I might add. AT THE VERY
		+	LEAST The said post by zeldamaster1230 should have been deleted immediately
		+	because it is in direct countervention of your TERMS OF USE(1). which you claim
		+	to uphold, for THESE SPECIFIC OCCURANCES!!! Instead I am forced into an endless
		+	slew of email bickering in a diplomatic attempt to clear up my good name on the
		+	internet.

		+	Michael,
		+
		+	The legal threat page is per our policy. From your original email, where
		+	you've said: "I ask that they are removed IMMEDIATELY so that further
		+	action is not required."; I will interpret "further actions" as a legal
		+	threat.
		+
		+	If you are this concerned about any new page with your name showing up on
		+	Google, you might be interested in starting a personal blog to secure the
		+	top results with your own content.
		+
		+	The bottom line is that comments made by zeldamaster1230 are not libelous
		+	as they were not posted as "facts", nor were they made about you. As unique
		+	as you might think your name is, Facebook alone returns 3 matches on exact
		+	name search.
		+
		+	-- Tony

subject Slander, Criminal allegations

It has been brought to my attention by colleagues of mine that my name
has been indexed on google linking to a blog on this website. After a quick google search of "michael gontier" I found said post as hit #7.
The absurd comments contained within could be classified as nothing other than
slanderous, if not criminal. My name is not one that is common so I am
taking these accusations personally and I ask that they are removed
immediately so that further action is not required. Thank-You in advance,
</pre>
