Just a question, in which part of the posting rules did the topic called 'somali pirate'  broke ?

I was thinking that exact thing

it broke the number one rule. And it's a big no no.

Agreed, I thought that one out and missed the reason behind the admins decision but stand behind it no less. Perhaps someone was offended and complained. Therefore I deleted my posting.

I am waiting to hear from the staff to reply, I like to hear from them.

Kohai-- I still fail to see how discussing current news is discussing illegal activities? Please explain.
