I agree that its stupid to drag business dealings on to a blog, or forum, or any kind of public medium for that matter. I guess where we disagree here is how it should be handled when someone else drags your business dealings into the public light.
I will say that I think LCO's first move should have been the C&D, followed by a carefully drafted (possibly by a different lawyer than the one who drafted the C&D) statement that simply outlined their policies and general agreements, without naming any parties involved. This would have been sufficient to demonstrate the company's ability to take responsibility for protecting its image, and could very well have ended the whole mess right there.
I respect your opinion here Io, and I'm not trying to get you to change it, just trying to illustrate my own point of view.
Oh, and BTW, your forum avatar is giving me sugar shock
