This is not a Court. One possible wrong that was committed was making
unsupported charges of libel. If Irismeister is guilty of making unsupported
claims of libel we need to look into what was said about him. So far,
although there are some apologies and retractions there is evidence he was
called a "Quack" and a "nutcase". In the context of a mudslinging
exchange
however.

my opinion-ridiculous bending over backwards to be fair opinion) is any
evidence that Theresa Knott actually did libel Irismeister (under any
reasonable legal theory of libel). I would not want to convict Irismeister
of making baseless legal threats if there is some basis.
WITHOUT PREJUDICE
Normally where there is an allegation of libel the onus would be upon
the person making that allegation to show where this was done. What one
person considers as libellous to his person, may not even be noticed by
others.
