I was a member of the online blackjack playing forum www.blackjackinfo.com , at which time I posted several comments to other posters. Then for no apparent reason I was banned from the forum without a warning. I made a new nickname and saw that the person that banned me had posted his own comment on the forum and was bragging about how he banned me. I emailed Ken Smith the owner of the owner prior to writing this online complaint to try and get this issue resolved "first". I emails went unanswered. I also made a new nickname and posted several times to the forum requesting that my nickname be unbanned. They also were ignored. Ken Smith ignored my emails and requests to UNBAN me.

Ken Smith of www.blackjackinfo.com and www.blackjacktournaments.com is harassing nice innocent people on his website. He banned me for no reason, then publicy ridiculed me after banning me.

I have already spoken to my attorney and he is compling a lawsuit for defamation of character and slander and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Ken Smith, if you are reading this then you need to learn manners and respect for people as you are NOT a nice person. You can't just harass people on your website for no reason then expect not to get sued. You can expect a lawsuit in your mailbox.

Actually there are many Ken Smiths in the U.S.  I live in Kailua-Kona where there are 3 known to me.  I do own hawaii-inns.com but I am a retired pastor and have nothing to do with blackjackinfo.com or blackjack gambling.  The person who filed this report got the wrong Ken Smith in his gun sights.  Seem folks should take more care than to sully some one's reputation that they don't even know.

I'm on your side but..............

I wouldn't waste my time with any lawsuit.  Everybody wants to sue someone for slander.  It's very hard to win and cost a hell of a lot of money.  Plus, in this instance you have absolutely no real loss involved.  In order to sue someone, you have to show some sort of loss and that's after you even prove that they did it to begin with.

Now if you're trying to bluff or intimidate this guy, then I'm sorry I blew your cover.  But I certainly wouldn't waste my money on suing some guy over something like this.
