Pretty much every post you make bashing SW (which is the vast majority of them, since you're obsessed with SW) attacks an individual, since the company is made up of them.
Not that any of us really care, but I am sure if someone does a quick search (you're definitely not worth the effort for me) they will find a post or 2 where you attacked an individual, professionally or otherwise.
The difference is that you don't see any of us running to "mom" about things that an idiotic troll posts on an anonymous web board.
Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Happy Kwanzaa and Happy Festivus! Go enjoy your family......

Like I said before, your a dick. You might also want to reference Dicko post. You do not have a clue about what slander is.

Wrong as usual. Better start searching. You won't find a single post of mine that attacks an individual personally. Good luck. You'll only have to sift through about 1500 of them.

You need to speak to a real lawyer. First, you have to prove harm. You haven't done that. Second, you have to prove people know who you are, not some nameless fubi guy hiding behind a moniker. Unless you out yourself, then thats your fault, you have no case.
You have failed on two counts.
Case dismissed.
Actually, he'd have to sift through 2337 of them (as of the time I write this). Unless of course you're only referring to SWA-slamming posts; then that might be right, about 1500.
Why are you actually posturing about libel? You're not actually gonna' waste money on a lawyer are you? Tell you what, since you're a good Navy guy and all, I'll save you the money and tell you what any lawyer would: You have no case.
1. Libel requires that you prove that you were damaged. If you have the same job, making the same money, and no one in a position above you is harassing you (legal definition), then you haven't been damaged.
2. Libel requires intent. The people who "harmed" you have to have intended to harm you by knowingly writing something malicious and false, and that a reasonable person could believe was true, which then caused you said harm.
3. The perceived libel has to be written in such a way as to be intended to be taken seriously. That's why rags like the National Enquirer can print such crap as "Obama having affair with Condaleeza Rice!" and not get sued (or at least successfully) for it.
Pilots annonymously yakking to other pilots on a rumor board is not going to be taken seriously anywhere; not in a court room or an airline's headquarters. "Fubi is a bad pilot," and "Fubi is ugly" are non-quantifiable insults that could not be reasonably taken seriously. Let's put it this way: if your chief pilot takes action against you because he read that you're a bad pilot on Flight Info, then I'd say you (and your airline, for that matter!) have much bigger problems that who's insulting whom on an annonymous forum.
The word "bad" is subjective and comparative on its face to begin with. I could say that Fubi is a bad pilot, a bad American, a bad person in general, or has a bad attitude, bad manners, and bad breath (gee, this is fun!). I could also say that you're ugly, smell, and scare little children. None of that would be actionable. On the othe hand, if I told your chief or the FAA that you had intentionally violated FARs, or had an unreported incident, AND then acting on such information, they fired, demoted, suspended, or took other action against you, then you would have an actual libel case (unless what I said was true, of course). See the difference?
Anyway, this seems to me to be more of a case of someone who can "can dish it out, but can't take it." By the way, that last sentence also is not an actionable libel. Don't sue me.

All I want for Christmas is for the slacker to learn how to write....For the love of God, when you're trying to say "you are" it's spelled "you're." Using "your" shows possession. (as in "your" dick.)
Merry Christmas!

"Defamation—also called calumny, vilification, traducement, slander (for transitory statements), and libel (for written, broadcast, or otherwise published words)—is the communication of a statement that makes a claim, expressly stated or implied to be factual, that may give an individual, business, product, group, government, or nation a negative image
It is a requirement that this claim be false and that the publication is communicated to someone other than the person defamed (the claimant).[1]"
Any questions Fubi?
Just a ridiculous drift

Geez. First you're talking about people's balls (in the Captain backing up F/As thread), and now you're talking about their dicks! I think that for Christmas, maybe what you really want is to get a little sumpin-sumpin! (IF you know what I mean, and I think you do.)
Merry Christmas to you, and good luck!

Am I that transparent? Or, are you that psychic?
Actually, Bubba, MY Santa will soon be jetting his way to me to deliver what's in his big Santa sack. (After all, I've been a "good" little girl all year long......)
Merry Christmas to you too!

LOL... I'm not wasting the time. You're arguing semantics and you're wrong, "as usual".
Really, why not make a New Years resolution to stop being such a dick on FI?

You are better off wishing for Cameron Diaz for Christmas .
He has always sucked at spelling. College was easy for him as GFs would rewrite his papers. Now with spell check and the internet he will always be a bad spell.
You will know me when you fly with me. Even though i am a bad speller, I buy all the drinks
Have a Merry Christmas .. That goes for you to Fubi.

Un-frickin-believable.....
Is it slander to call someone a ****************************** bag if they ARE a ****************************** bag?
The truth is an absolute defense against slander.

I'm with the AA pilots all the way. They have been getting the shaft for years just like everyone of us had in this industry. If you haven't gotten screwed as an airline pilot you haven't been here long enough. Until we ALL stick together the race to the bottom will continue. Everything we have given up or lost in our contracts was something that those that came before us had to fight for.
