Infraction that I think is unfair? Want to clarify the rules..

[matt-]

Hi,

I created this thread yesterday:
http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=491241

And I recevied two infractions on it for bumping the thread. I agree that the first time I was bumping, asking if anyone else is interested, but I honestly didn't know that wasn't allowed to a certain extent, as i've always seen it going on everywhere on DP - perhaps its a new rule in hte last 6 months or something? since I haven't been around here much since then.

Anyway, I made a second post saying that id sold one link, and id accept offers from anyone else interested. The fact that im saying im now taking offers, in my view makes it a legitimate post. But I got an infraction from it.

How exactly am I supposed to tell people im now taking offers, or cheaper prices on that same deal? Surely making another thread would be worse then updating my current one?

:confused:

Would appreciate feedback, preferably from the person that gave me the infractions.

Thanks,
Matt

EDIT: OK I just read the thing about not starting a thread about receiving an infraction. But I can't delete the thread? sorry. :(

I think that if you'd been a bit more verbose about the change from fixed pricing to negotiable pricing it might have been ok. However it's only 2 infraction points out of a maximum of 10. You should have no problems from here on and infractions aren't visible to other users.

DON: Yes I had noticed that, I think I was editing my message around about the time you responded, thanks for pointing it out.

sarahk: Point taken, I guess that post was a bit half and half.

I'm happy for a mod to close this thread, or delete it even, if any are watching.. sarahk?
