LOL you are correct about posts on message boards being used in lawsuits and I've seen others post to the contrary..but I have personally witnessed it.
I spent some time working for an online auction company before venturing into adult and deservedly so they were being bashed on the boards right and left by a number of reputable users and some anonymous trolls..this went on at auctionwatch.com and carried over into some ezboard message boards and the site owner initiated legal action.
Auctionwatch.com would no longer even allow the sites name to be mentioned, and these 2 sisters who were leading the cause shut up rather quickly as did a number of others.
The whole fake drama is another issue entirely. I know we're really venturing off topic here but whether it's fake or not and I'm not privy to that information all I get to see is a couple of posters or company reps behaving in a manner that does not suggest that I should initiate business deals with either.
I have dealt with a few of the drama queens on the boards and that has brought me nothing but trouble. You usually end up having to hold their hands entirely through whatever process you're going through with them.
I can only assume it's because if you need drama in your public lives, there's a good chance you need it in your private life as well.
