    Dear Moderator/Admin,

    May i know why i have received infraction please. The reason you have mentioned was "Thread Hijacking". But in your forum there is no provision for a newbie to start a new thread. So every newbie is forced to post on the existing threads only. Thats what i did. As i am seriously looking to buy Site/Blog and i dont have enough permissions to post a new thread, so i posted in a thread where sellers are going to answer. Other than that i dont have any intention of hijacking/ spamming someones thread. Check all the posts that i have posted and the PMs that i have received and then decide for which purpose i have posted that message in that thread.

    Thanking you.

    Regards,
    User : venme360

    In that case, how exactly were you able to start this thread?

    My question really means that there is no provision for newbie to start a thread in "Forum: Buy, Sell or Trade". If Digital Point thinks that i did a mistake intentionally even after looking into my posts, then its upto them to ban/suspend or giving warning to me.

    It's on the page someone else posted a link to:

    It might have just been the way you posted in some of these other threads (and we can't see that to be sure, if a mod has deleted it). As you mention you're looking for sites, if you didn't make post your specifically for the OP then that could be threadjacking (e.g. something like "anyone selling a site like this, feel free to PM me.").

    You've stated quite clearly that you intended to post as you did "intentionally".

    You can send a private message or ask questions of those members trying to sell a site but you can't hijack the threads of those looking to buy.
