Somehow I managed to overlook that first stipulation, that a warning must be given first. I agree with Moderator 14, that there is no point in giving a warning first. A violation is a violation, and needs to be removed.
With that said, I will now say that what constitutes a violation needs to be made clear. And the public posting of explanations must be consistent. I believe that in the case of deleting an entire thread, one post is sufficient, but for individual deletions, individual explanations must be given. I believe it would be okay to do this all in one post, as long as each deleted post is identified (by author and title, since it's doubtful that anyone memorizes all their post numbers) with the reason for deletion clearly explained.
Also, let it be noted that a post frankly acknowledging dishonest behavior on the part of the Watchtower Society does not constitute FPP violation. If a publication of the WBTS contains a lie, and the article exposes and discusses that lie, it is not a violation of the FPP to say, "Watchtower Lies Again" in the title; this is not grounds for removal.
