Firstly, I have removed the link from the above post because of this website’s preference to keep things anonymous and that website identified the building concerned.
Which brings me to a little bit of housekeeping your webmasters should consider. By putting the website on the internet and available to all and sundry, the creators have punched a little hole in their defence from defamation complaints – namely that it was part of a vigorous internal discussion for the greater good of all owners in that building.
Another potential defence is absence of malice. But if some committee member decided they had been accused of being “dictatorial” which was then put on the internet as an act of spite to show them up to a broader public, it might be time to start shifting ownership of all your assets to your cat.
My tactic would be to lock the website behind a password and then let owners – and only owners – know what the password was. I certainly wouldn’t be posting the address on a website that’s read by several thousand people every week.
But I think the website itself is a good idea – as long as it encourages discussion rather than just being somewhere for people to go for a whinge.
