Andrew, if you are in fact posting like me with your real name. It seems to me that SI admin is aiding and abetting libel of your good name by permitting cowards hiding behind anonymous label the ability to libel you with impunity.

As a procedural matter, I would send SI admin a PM stating the situation and request him to instruct all on what is appropriate. I would request all message you deem libel to be removed. Failure to follow this reasonable procedure is in my opinion a gross failure of SI to properly enforce it's TOU.

I also consider saying anything about some anonymous handle is really never libel as there is no real person. I'm not sure of that but that what I think makes sense.

I document what was said in what I consider libel posts by emailing those messages to myself. I put a key word in the subject to filter it into a folder. Over time you can build a case showing what really happened. Also email yourself all PM's to and from on that matter.
