    I went over the Rules .... again, but couldn't find anything that explains what that means.

    Like for example, if I made comment quoting one member and then half an hour later I found
    another post in the same thread that cut my attention but made by different member and then
    quoted him in my post, where in Rules does it says that posting replies to multiple members
    is not allowed and that I have to wait for somebody else to post something before I can made
    my next post?

    :confused::confused::confused:

    Why not edit your previous post? If its been more than 8 hours then its okay to make back to back posts (considering that they are within the rules). There's also a multi-quote option so you can quote multiple members in the same post w/o having to edit it.

    Because they are cover 2 different subjects and not related to the same issue.

    But the question in here is, why should I?
    Where does it says that I obliged to combine my posts?
    So far I can't find anything that says that I have to.

    :confused:

    We expect members to avoid double posting wherever possible either by using the multi-quote feature or by editing thread above.

    The nature or the posts and time between the posts determines whether or not a bumping infraction is applicable.

    Where does it says in your Rules?

    And what is wrong if Mod just merges 2 posts and send friendly reminder that says:
    We expect members to avoid double posting wherever possible
    which would be more than enough for me to take notice

    :confused:

    Don't "bump" threads
    you've gotten enough infractions in the past for this, you should know better.

    in fact you do know better. don't you.
    and if i see you do it again, you'll get the same, again.

    a) I didn't get infraction for Bumping
    b) show me any benefit why I would want to bump some stinking thread 30 minutes later
    c) till today I had no idea that Posting back to back is not allowed
    d) if you want to run this forum by the Book, than make that book public

    Again, if you want us to follow Rules than write fucking book with detailed do's and don'ts and then
    ask us to follow them instead of making us guessing what is on your minds and if our next post
    will violate any "Rules" that up until we made it wasn't there in Book of Rules to guide us in a first place.

    lets see, you got one from this thread, oh yeah, someone missed one, i can hook you up.
    16 deleted posts in that crap shoot.

    you caught one by quoting someone and your comment was
    [plonk]
    [/plonk]
    what the fuck is that? useless bullshit to raise yet another fucking argument about dmoz.

    thread bumps, posting back to back, same fucking thing.

    so how about you shut your pie hole and take it like everyone else.

    2 points, eh.
    Well, it will worth every and each one of them :) but you must come up with better reason because
    noting someone that I'm not going to play stupid games is not attacking and harassing.

    As to lesson... you're welcome and if you would like to learn more about this subject, then here is Wiki link
