On top of that there is what the CF Team consider to be libellous as well. Nobody (other than Mick, Frank and Paul) has the right to post on here and the site owners have full discretion to decide if something is inappropriate.
All team members may decide that whereas something is legal, it is not appropriate to be posted on here.
This new proposal is well certainly go some way to cleaning the site up a bit. As it stands if the police or courts approached us requesting a user's details due to offence they have have posted then we won't stand in their way. If someone like VM officially approached us (which they never have btw) wanting a user's info then we'll turn them down.
We aren't going to take an armchair lawyer's advice - if we need to check the legal situation on matters we have ways of doing so. But if the law doesn't apply then it is the team's discretion.
