Hello It appears someone just added an infraction for my post on here: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?p=1297843#post1297843 Reason: 'Running Up Post Count/Post Has No Value'. Sorry, but did he / she report every single poster on this thread for the same thing? Did he / she go through every single thread in this particular forum and 'tell off' each poster? I've only been a member a short while, and was simply joining in with the general etiquette that all web masters do on the solicitation forum. It's all about manners and general niceness to say you've submitted your site. Because of some wally, I now have a black mark against my name. If I knew who they were, I'd be sure to do the same to them for being such an idiot.
It is the MODS and not someone who gives the Infraction. It must have been reported by some member to the MOD. And i just checked ur previous posts : 92 posts out of 100 in Solicitations and Announcements and only 8 posts in other forums.(Checked all the posts) Dont u think u deserved the infraction?
I have an idea, a new hack: everyone starting a thread with the word infraction, gets one. A 5 pointer at that.
New trend on DP New Thread on My 100th Post New Thread on 500th Post New thread on My 100th post New threads on Infractions. New Thread on red points Jeez. I missed opening all of them. Will open a thread on 1000 posts for sure Good going Ollyski. You're continuing the trend. But am afraid wqe don't want it
Members who do not conform to the posting guidelines can receive warnings, infractions, and ultimately be banned. There is no reason for anyone to be banned by infractions. If a member receives an infraction, that member needs to check the posting guidelines and figure out what guideline they have violated and make sure they do not violate it any more.
I agree, there should be a BAN start for starting these " I got an infraction threads " Its just a warning, a way to set your tone, I agree the first one is like "omg.. I got an infraction" But , they do set you straight, I have recieved 3, and BOY I tell ya I learned fast not to do what I did, but there is no reason for post after post, PLUS they only last a limited time, and they build character.. We really need that sticky " If you start a thread about an infraction you wil be banned " .......
Click on your userid in upper left hand corner of your post above and view your profile. If you see yellow and or red cards you have warnings (yellow cards) and or infractions (red cards) Beside each you will find the type of infraction and how long it will be in place. Warnings and infractions are valid for a certain period of time and then disappear from your profile. They serve as a friendly reminder to the posting guidelines. I just checked and you have no warnings and no infractions.
I feel left out. That's all it takes? I remember Nintendo begging for an infraction recently. Why am I always the last to get an infraction?
