    Sure. BTW who is indemnifying us, and the website that is to carry the list, against the legal action that will surely follow?

        There used to be an excellent one in Germany which ran for a few years but suddenly disappeared. Surely someone could host it offshore?

            <Agency Name> * </Agency Name>

                  Does not have to be a black list, just honest feed back regarding agents!

                  Some are bad, some are good....

                  Lets ID the good, bad & ugly ones and then people make their own choice!

                  Can not see how that would break the law?

                    To be honest it's about the Board Admins allowing the posting of heresay comments about commercial businesses (agents) in a list of name and shame.
                    It would invite libel actions, it's not illegal, but it could be defamatory and lead to civil actions for damages.
