Hmm it was always going to come up eventually, being an Inter-web connected Geek running and hosting sites for other people. I've been approach regarding some items posted on a site that I host. Nothing serious (yet), so I'm covering my ass here and stating my personal thoughts on freedom of speech.
Basically as long as you (some one posting stories/blogs on a Phoenix Productions hosted service) are not being defamatory (or in this case it would be specifically libelous) you are free to say what you like. You can be contraversial, angry, sad...I don't care. I'm not going to edit your opinions(to be perfectly honest there's a good chance I've not even read your opinion) BUT I am not stupid enough to let you do anything ILLEGAL. Of course whether I think a post is libelous or not is an entirely different question.
Anyway my server, my money, MY RULES (and what ever pertinent legal ones apply too ;-) )
