This has been true as long as gaming has existed. My great grandfather was shot dead in a Poker game.

So, if the majority of posts asserting rigging of the games are false; that means the majority of such posts are libelous under the law. Now, I have a problem with hosting libel, for moral and ethical reasons as well as legal. So, the question is how to deal with such threads. It is possible that a player here has been cheated – and that should be discussed. But, it’s just as obvious that most claims are false – and accusations without damn good foundation should not be cavalierly tossed about on a public forum.

If I were in your shoes I would discontinue the public airing of alleged cheating in the same way as you don't accept public airing of racism. Both situations should be considered unacceptable for ethical reasons. If someone thinks they have been cheated, let them report it to the gaming authorities.
