now I'm curious about what the post was all about ...

a) Just remove the link
b) put up a banner saying that "thou shouldn't do this again" (i.e. not to post 失實，包含大量人身攻擊及冒犯性之內容 ... blah blah blah

write them a letter saying a) and b) were done.  and it's also LYK's interest to prevent
失實，包含大量人身攻擊及冒犯性之內容 from being posted on the forum.  Thanks for informing

that's all.  no apology is needed.

is it that hard to apologize?  an apology saves many troubles (putting money in your pocket)!

it's just being nice and courteous

Apology implies fault is admitted.  they could seek damage compensation easily.

actually, who is the member?

The argument isn't that about LYK defamed them.  It is about if LYK did the diligence to prevent it from happening.

Technically, they can sue for civil damages if they can prove that the issue causes actual damages (translated into a $ figure) and LYK didn't do the diligence to prevent it from happening.

(another point is that they can't sue LYK for NOT giving them the personal info)

It's a civil case, so local authorities won't be involved.

They win or not isn't the biggest issue (yet).  It's the lawyer's fees (and time) that will kill Admin.

of course, I doubt they will actually proceed into the court case.  too much $ for an oversea website.
