My thread about Jennifer Lawrence did not breech any FSE forum rules. If any comments from other members did then why were they not individually warned like every single other thread in FSE as opposed to taking down the whole thread?

You obviously haven't read the rules.
If you have a problem with administration, contact head admin through PMs.

Also, I belive someone said you linked to the page.
It would have been considered linking ponr, which is illegal.
Probably one of the very few old-timers here who hasn't been a regimental leader.

Yes you are 10/10 right, posting pictures of Kappa is against the FSE rules.
Well then that person who said that is as incorrect as your attempt of spelling porn. Maybe next time bud, but you clearly don't know what you're talking about.

I sense some butthurt in here. Obviously by misspelling porn, my entire point is invalid.

Someone else linked porn in the thread, and FSE probably read about the legal action threats and panicked.

Cream has already been applied, but thank you for your concern. Neither your point or your spelling was valid. Explain to me how posting this image deemed the thread to be deleted and what rule I had broken.

1. Derogatory or discriminatory remarks based on ethnicity, nationality, gender, religion or personal beliefs
Racism or hatred of any sort is not acceptable. If you make a post; keep in mind that this community contains people from all around the world. What you deem as normal or even funny does not necessarily mean that it will be funny for everyone else. Be polite and respectful. Racism is one of the worst things you can commit here, so it can easily get you permanently banned.

2. Trolling, insulting and other personal attacks
Personal attacks on forum users and moderators of any kind will not be tolerated. This includes (but it is not limited to) insults, provocations for the sake of argument, homophobic slurs, threats, encouragement to suicide, wishing death or ill upon a user and death threats or threats to the persons physical constitution. The latter (in the threats category), in the absence of humor, is a criminal offense and will result in an immediate ban. Discussions are allowed, but only constructive discussions, not discussions where your main goal is to humiliate or offend someone. Aim to discuss points rather than people. Also do not post screamer links; it may result in an immediate mute or ban depending on how far the admin launched his breakfast upon viewing. Additionally; should a user create an account or group solely for the means of trolling, advertisement of trolling, or as a means to cause harm to another individual or group, in whatever shape or form, then FSE reserves the right to refuse service to the individual or group in question. 

3. Excessive swearing
While moderators may deal leniently with less offensive words, provided they are used in a non-offensive context; certain words, along with their use and context will not be tolerated within the forum. FSE believes users are smart enough to structure their language so as not to be overly reliant on language that is construed to provoke, insult, anger or offend.

4. Spamming
Making unnecessary posts with no valuable content will be regarded as breaking the forum rules and punished accordingly. Try to avoid double posting whenever it is possible. If you want to add something to your post then please edit it, do not make a new one - please do not post the same thing on several places of the forum without permission. Be aware that posting unnecessary content (such as quote pyramids or off-topic posting of image macros or GIFs) can also constitute spamming.

5. Copyright infringement
We do not tolerate piracy. Anything connected to piracy, warez, cracks, hacks, serial keys and key generators or any other sort of copyright infringement can get you into trouble, regardless of whether you do it directly or indirectly. Infringement of this rule will result in immediate mute and possible ban depending on the severity of the breach. This rule also applies to the unauthorised use of other user's game assets (both from this community and any other). If you wish to use someone else's work in your mod you will need to get their written permission first, preferably alongside some form of proof that you have it.

6. Inappropriate content
Everyone can access this forum, therefore content intended only for adults is strictly forbidden. Content such as pornography, gory images, disturbing images or anything else the moderators find to be inappropriate for the age range on the forum will be removed, and the posting user potentially punished.

7. Posting private conversations or personal images without permission
All too often we have seen private conversations held on Steam, IRC, other programs, private messages and boards which, find their way onto the public domain. We will no longer accept this violation of trust on our forum. If you post a chat without the consent of the other member in the chat you may be instantly muted or dealt with at a moderators discretion depending the severity of the infringement, and the post will be removed. FSE believes that snippets of a private conversation do not provide sufficient context in a discussion and can be used to mislead. Furthermore posting pictures/images of other individuals or members of the forum and or wider community without permission will not be tolerated and may result in either a mute or ban depending the severity of the infringement.

8. No begging for serial keys
This is be considered to be an equivalent to piracy and will result in the immediate removal of the post along with a mute. Further action may be taken if required.

9. No alternative accounts
If you have registered an account with the FSE forums then please note: Do not create alternate or additional account, especially if you have been banned or muted. Exception is made if you are no longer using the original account and/or if the original account is no longer in use/deleted or if you have a family member/friend who is in the same area as you.
Should any of the above be true then its your responsibility to notify FSE of existing alternative accounts or of multiple account users in your area since FSE won't be held responsible if its admins mistakenly remove duplicate accounts. You can report your duplicate accounts here. If a user has been banned or muted and attempts to post using an alternate account then that user may be banned on the spot along with his/her other prior accounts depending a moderator's discretion.

10. Disciplinary action
In most cases unless otherwise specified; an initial infringement will warrant a warning, however should a moderator find a user to have committed multiple infringements in a short period of time it may result in an immediate mute in order to prevent further infringements while moderators deal with the ensuing reports/damage/problems or issues at hand. For severe breaches a ban will be issued by a head admin.

11. No posting of National Socialist imagery, symbols or right wing opinions or representation that may glorify or seek to represent elements of former Nazi Germany.
In many countries such symbols and imagery are banned particularly in Germany where FSE's host servers are based. At the end of the day this is a forum for the enjoyment of FSE products and not a platform for political discourse. FSE does not wish to contravene Germany's strict policies in regards to Strafgesetzbuch section 86a and thus requests that its users adhere to this policy as part of the terms of service agreement.

They probably didn't even open the thread, I'm guessing legal threats are being issued by name alone, otherwise they'd have to go through thousands of pages looking to see if they have pictures or not.

Alpha male is right.


Maybe it has been thought that link sharings could have been repeated again and the thread needed to be controlled everytime but still I think that it would be better to delete just the comments. Because there were also discussions there.

Oooh yes... TURK will defend rights of yours too Vespasian when you need. As he defended rights of poor Jennifer's.
Now hold my hand my brother! You are not alone! You can hold! I won't think that you are homosexual.
