as far as and laws being broken, I think patti has stated several times that at this time, they are looking into their options and pursuing whatver route they are able to. It is not wise for her to discuss it with anyone especially on a public internet message board. I am sure the nwo will disclose any updates when they have it and when they can give it.

Jimia,
An investigation is underway. That's all I can say at this time.
As for removing town council members, we will let you know what options there are for that as soon as we get a final answer.

Good point bama80. Since the NWO is in a position of providing a forum and being part of one of the hot news stories, they are in a precarious position. I wouldn't expect them to expose themselves or their position without carefully considering the consequences. I'm fine with waiting this one out. In the meantime, I'm not oppsed to continuing the spirited discussion about anonymous postings, privacy, and the like.
I think the contention on this forum has been more about what we as individuals think happened based on the available information and discussions. I would hope (and I believe this to be true) that everyone wants a fair and positive resolution to this issue. IF (big IF, because we don't know) laws have been broken, then there are actions that can/will be taken. Perhaps we're getting wrapped around the axle because folks believe that public trust has been broken - without knowing whether public laws have been broken.

Interestingly enough, The NWO's role in our community has now changed from reporting the news to driving the news if not becoming the news. That seems to be the consensus from over this way.

Jane: Given your statement, could you please provide us all with 3 examples of things which you would consider to be immoral and unethical, but yet, which are considered legal?
Patti Stokes wrote: Great conversation gentlemen, but the question on this topic is, "Do forum participants have the right to post anonymously?
Please stay on topic.
Patti, it seems to me that when other posters make statements under their posts under any one topic, responders should be allowed to challenge the veracity of such statements. It further seems to me that there are a lot of statements which are thrown out on this NWO Forum which have little regard for fact, are highly disputable in accuracy, and many are completely without foundation or logical support.
It seems only fair that anyone should be allowed to challenge those statements however benign or reckless they may be, as they might well mislead weaker or lazier minds not prone to research and confirmation or denial.
Therefore, I think if you will review more closely, the posts made by Mike and I, they are in keeping with the earlier concept espoused by Jane Doggett as to whether an act can be legal yet immoral or unethical, as she contends.
If after a review you still feel that our comments were off topic, would you be so kind as to move them to a new topic thread where we can discuss in greater detail the very interesting question which is at the essence of some of the public charges which have been leveled at one of the Northwest area town council members. Thank-you in advance for your reconsideration and your consideration of this request.

| My question is even if you cannot press charges against him can you initiate a civil suit based on the potential damages he has done to the forum and newspaper. He has raised questions around the security and privacy of accessing the NWO online. That cannot be good for the paper.
