k found it. Using the permissiondefinitions.xml i changed the collaborator rights:
      <!– A collaborator can do anything that an editor and a contributor can do –>
      <permissionGroup name="Collaborator" allowFullControl="false" expose="true">
         <!– includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Editor" type="cm:cmobject" / –>
         <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Contributor" type="cm:cmobject" />
      </permissionGroup>

This did solve the edit-all functionality for e.g. collaborators which is not needed by my client.

On the blog noderef in a single ex. script i added the add posts permissions:
permissionService.setPermission(nodeRef, "GROUP_site_XXX_ROLE", PermissionService.ADD_CHILDREN, false);
permissionService.setPermission(nodeRef, "GROUP_site_XXX_ROLE", PermissionService.CREATE_CHILDREN, false);
Where XXX is the sitename, ROLE: contributor & consumer

ForumModel.TYPE_POST nodes have onCreateNode behaviour which removes editor rights for collaborator and removes all write rights for contributor,consumer,collaborator, making it impossible to edit for non-owners except managers.

ForumModel.TYPE_TOPIC nodes gain create_children / add_children permission with use of onCreateNode behaviour to allow everyone to reply on a discussion.

Hi i am new to alfresco, but i think i got the basics about the structure of folders within it. All i want to do is to make it possible for a consumer to reply in a discussion in share.
Also can i change permissions for folder actions too, so a consumer cannot view the 'copy to' action?
Thanks in advance.

Try not to continue a {Solved} post, it´s not the idea and it´s not a suitable way to make you questions known.
As for your question, change Document Actions is a topic that you will found a lot if you do a search, A recent post of MikeH points that and gives some interesting links to look:
