Some of you guys really need to learn not to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory of a person's privacy...esp. when you know that certain people read this forum every day. Well done!

What ever happened to freedom of speech eh!?

Trying to get to the bottom of it- some people blaming buncey? Seems unlikely

I hope we only get the decent posters moving over here.

I dare say Allegedly is involved....there was a thread recently talking but his alleged business interests which might have got the lawyers on the case..I could be wrong though.

There was also the rumour of Bellew getting bombed on there which was clearly false.

Open as usual, just been on there

It's not open, you can't post.

It was either Maloney or Bunce I think. There were threads calling both of them pudenda for the Klitschko/Steward remark and the cowboy hat thing respectively.

I really think Bunce nees to get a life

ie people say shit about Liam Gallagher but you don't see him suing rock n roll forums cos he doesn't care, people talk shite and if youre a TV personality people are gonan talk shite who cares its a forum!

Basically fvck off fatty

It was going to happen one day, the site was getting worse all the time more extreme, just shows if you let things get out of order, it eventually gets out of control.

Now, now, the bloke might have nothing to do with it...if he doesn't, he might very well take umbrage with this forum!

I do remember seeing a post from an old BoxRec poster making some rather outrageous unfounded claims directed at Frank Maloney.

There's a difference between freedom of speech and posting unfounded defamatory remarks about somebody. ESB actually got shut down for this about 10 years ago and they've been working hard to keep the bullshit to a minimum, although it is difficult when you've got 10 times as much traffic over there.

Oh Gawd - the idiots will be parking up here - bye bye forum.

At least I know it's not me this time.

I've learned my lesson

If you go to page 4664 on the Choi (sticky) you will find a load of posts about Rodney Bewes (of Likely Lads fame) by all accounts it's his agent that's responsible for the closure.

What because you took the piss? Really?

It seems to be working now.

Had a look, can't see anything "defamatory". Odd.

Heaven knows, it's been attributed to W*rren, Maloney, Bunce, Bellew, and now some are saying Rodney Bewes agent. Brit Forum is now back up again, a number of threads have disappeared but the Mods, Admin won't give a definitive answer.

I hope it's Bewes that would be the funniest I reckon.

'Rodney Bewes Brings Down Eastside'

What a headline!!

That would be epic... seeing as he has fuckall to do with boxing

The Bewes stuff is still on, the thread about Bellew getting dropped in sparring is too, but threads about Kevin Mitchell not being paid for the Burns fight and one regarding Maloney's comments on Saturday are missing.

Cheers Frank (Ftm Press)

Is his name gonna get censored now too?

Don't say that mate I've just joined due to the closure of ESB

Good posters are always welcome from ESB like Leeds Lad - I enjoy reading his posts, however, you have to admit ESB is muppet central and that demographic stay away.
