You'd do well to bear in mind we have zero responsibilities under the DPA. Our server is based in Germany and the forum is owned by a Canadian resident.
Despite your claims of bravado, Virgin Media will not be able to identify anyone posting on here unless that individual has made their identity known by other means.
We've had this situation several times in the past and each time it has amounted to nothing.

The admin team will decide what is and is not appropriate use on CF.

I'm sure that made you feel very good about yourself. However no VM employee should be concerned about their employer finding out who they are on CF. However for balance, that is not a licence to be abusive towards other users (we've had to have the odd quiet word in the past but nothing serious).
