I see now that you are a Philosopher or something similar. Ok, in order to focus
on the topic. I will define you according to the Longman Dictionary what means
both words:

Slander: A false sopken statement about someone that is intended to damage the
good opinion that people have.

Libel: An act of writing or printing untrue statements about someone so that
other people are likely to have a bad opinion of them.

Ok, could you remember us the Voyager Engine Case that you always promoted in
your site? Why did this engine disappear from the map?

Are you clear now that both words are almost the same thing?

Ok, in my topic, how did you test an Old Diep Version of 2001 with an eccentric
book made in 2 hours? How did you get this old Diep Version and the last
Winboard Version? Why does Vincent never tell me that you were beta tester
during 2001? Why did Vincent never tell me that you had this Book? If you know
that this book was eccentric, why didnt you request a better book?
