Nice condescending tone there

You started off by saying you take posts at face value and assume people mean what they say.
Yes.

You then go on to say my reply was complete nonsense, and could be construed (to keep it simple that word means could be interpreted in a particular way) libellous.
Yes. I do know what words mean, thanks

Then when you're called on it you try and change from you have libelled me to an unidentified person/company might take exception.
I did not "change" anything. The title of the thread could be libellous; ie

Quote:
A published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation; a written defamation
.. as could some comments on here about me. VM may decide to sue as they have a reputation to uphold. I couldn't care less about random comments from anonymous forum users so wouldn't even think of taking any such action.

So, no contradictions; no "changes"; no nothing. You just need to comprehend English.

Oh and by the way as you love being Mr Pedantic you use the phrase "...may well decide to take it further if they decide that what you have posted is libellous", well the last time I looked it was for the courts to decide if libel has occured not the individual or entity, but hey Carl don't let accuracy get in the way of pompusness.
Oh please Yes, of course it's "ultimately up to the courts to decide" but you don't think VM are going to have a team of their own lawyers to advise them on whether what was posted is libellous or not and that they have a good chance of winning? Or do you think they're just going to go to court on a whim?

So to answer your last post I just pointed out that you change your tune to suit.

Simple enough?
Simple yes, but also entirely wrong. As usual, when you're posting about me, I might add
