They explicitly referred to the 'boobs' thread as one example, though there may be violations beyond it. Though it's difficult to comply when the source of this report is pretty transparent to us, we feel that out of an abundance of caution, it is best we comply by deleting the thread and informing everyone that content of similar kind is something we can't afford to keep around. If you know of any more content we should delete likewise to avoid further action, please report it to us. And if the aforementioned source succeeds in their spiteful affair, anyone interested in maintaining their relationships here is advised to make plans to regroup on the BSN or elsewhere.

But, I'd say the chance of it happening now that we've removed the offending content is <10%

You make it sound like we are on death row here. We were asked to remove offending adult material and were linked to the boobs thread, but a line was given stating that it may or may not be limited to that thread, so it's vague on if we are in the clear or not. I emailed them to see if we were in compliance and to ask for more clarification.

OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT You represent and warrant that you shall not use the Website or Services to upload, post, transmit, display, perform or distribute any content, information or materials that: (a) are libelous, defamatory, abusive, or threatening, excessively violent, harassing, obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, or pornographic; (b) constitute child pornography; (c) solicit personal information from or exploit in a sexual or violent manner anyone under the age of 18; (d) incite, encourage or threaten physical harm against another; (e) promote or glorify racial intolerance, use hate and/or racist terms, or signify hate towards any person or group of people; (f) glamorize the use of hard core illegal substances and drugs; (g) violate any provision of this Agreement or any other ProBoards agreement or policy, including without limitation ProBoards' Community Guidelines; or (h) is generally offensive or in bad taste, as determined by ProBoards (collectively, "Objectionable Content"). PROBOARDS DISCLAIMS ANY PERCEIVED, IMPLIED OR ACTUAL DUTY TO MONITOR THE CONTENTS OF THE WEBSITE AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR INFORMATION PROVIDED HEREON. Without limiting any of its other remedies, ProBoards reserves the right to terminate Your use of the Website and Services or Your uploading, posting, transmission, display, performance or distribution of Objectionable Content. ProBoards, in its sole discretion, may delete any Objectionable Content from its servers. ProBoards intends to cooperate fully with any law enforcement officials or agencies in the investigation of any violation of this Agreement or of any applicable laws. So since signifying hate towards any person or group of people violates the terms of service, you may want to delete the entire Religion and Politics forum and start over, just to be safe, but really, if our tipster really is a friend of the people running this company like the tipster claims, their definition of objectionable content is vague enough for them to nuke us no matter what we do.
Indeed, cannibalism of the dead is a cherished custom in Scotland. When a Scottish boy's coming of age is celebrated (a ceremony known as the Scot Mitzvah) he is forced to consume his own great-grandfather, bones and all, in just 24 hours, or else the local Shaman will hit him on the head with a magical stick that stops him from ever becoming an adult.

We already banned the only real offenders that I can see vis a vis those terms of service in the Politics forum, and part of that was so that we wouldn't have to just nuke it. I suppose it's something to consider. Hopefully they will have the courtesy to send a separate notice regarding such an issue.

Mass deleting posts from specific users is easy enough, though I suppose mass deleting the politics section would be cleaner (quotes and such). Assuming we're just wiping the slate clean and not shutting it down that seems like a decent solution if need be... though we could also just shut it down.
