Interesting... whether TSFX takes this under their belt, we shall wait and see.

It sounds more like aggression, rather than a viable claim =.=

Aside from removal of posts, I still can not see any grounds for defamation.

Can that TSFX staff member be caught up for defaming their company?

The fact that enwiabe has confirmed that cava is a staff member indicates that they are already planning on doing something.

(very minor I might add )

Or maybe enwiabe just has connections an knows anyway haha...

It's strange that a TSFX employee would actually sign up and make comments..

[ninwa]

The CEO of Kilbaha himself has signed up to make comments.

I would also like people to know that TSFX essentially pushes you towards purchasing their most expensive lectures.

They hold the 3 day, more expensive lectures during the holidays before the end of year exams, however the single day cheaper lectures do not take place until a couple of weeks before exams commence.

This is rather late, so if you would like the notes early then you have to give up 3 days of your time for the lectures and pay significantly more for them.

An example of the insightful information you can expect to receive should you subscribe to the TSFX mailing list!

Oh come on, now you're just being ridiculous. How on earth is giving students tips to deal with stress negligent?

I think with their tips they are actually genuinely trying to help students that struggle with exams.


How can you claim that is negligence??

[stonecold]

They are dramatizing it.  'Panic attacks'.

Someone please tell of an instance where this happened to them in an exam.

Intimidation at its best.

And those tips are nothing more than an excuse to try and flog off their products.  If you read them, they always talk up their lectures and after making a point conclude with '...which will be covered in the lectures.'

[werdna]

Scare tactics. 

A friend sent me this TSFX 'tip' where past students answered questions about their time management and VCE success. This girl was asked whether she attended any lectures and if so, whether they were useful or not. She said she attended Neap, TSFX and other lectures that give out notes, and said that they weren't as helpful as she would have thought! Lame story, but you get the idea.

Cambridge0012 conveniently deleted his post where he'd said that it was an example of negligent practice because they're not trained professionals, which it isn't. That was what we were responding to. It's clearly a marketing tactic but it's by no means negligent
