Far from being " overly sensitive " all Col is doing is being responsible and protecting both his individual position and also the site from being taken down.

Please post responsibly -you have been warned of the consequences for Col, the site and yourself if you don't .
 
Someone needs to explain then how football fans forums and some of the sites i`ve posted links to like Ruthless Reviews, Buffalobeast and The Onion get away with some of the content they have. The Internet is crawling with libel, i`m just curious as to why this place is so sensitive about it.

Dedicated hosting / offshore ISP / anonymous owners / laywers. Any number of things or a combination of them all that makes it hard for them to be shut down.

This place is run by a named person and I suspect is a service that that the host/ISP would not find too difficult to turn off.

Nobody is asking the world, just post responsibily.
