Yes, it is. Going into business (which is what this venture is in the eyes of the law) is a tricky thing - it becomes a balance between usefulness and self-protection. I used to host and run forums myself, and got out ages ago because of the very reasons discussed in this post so far. It's a real PITA to host a public meeting place these days - so my hat off to you Mike.
One thing - I believe that it's a common misconception to believe Australia is becoming as litigious as the USA - we've now far exceeded them at this practice.
