Rule possibly violated:

§2 "Fair Play"
http://wiki.battlemaster.org/wiki/Social_Contract

This should be a really simple and straighforward case. Questions to answer:
  • was a public accusation of cheating (etc) made?
  • was it made without proof or evidence?
If both answers are "yes", it is a violation of the social contract. If one of them is not, it is not.

Solari isn't being very clear on this, though. He didn't provide proof along with the accusation, but apparently it was a titan case that we are all blissfully unaware of over here. Though I consider it against the spirit of the social contract, calling someone who was convicted by the titans for cheating a "cheater" is not defamatory, it's just reality.

However, I doubt that all of those who joined D'Hara from the Lurias cheated in this manner: they came from various realms at various times. A single case was referred to concerning the titans. This generalization is defamatory to these people.

I also don't really see anything dirty on the family histories of our most recent additions, either.
