Why Was My Thread Deleted

    My sales thread for writing short articles was just deleted.
    Would like to know why was it deleted.
    It was most definitely not a duplicate thread since this thread is for writing short articles.
    This is really getting too much.

    I posted it in the content creation section and this is really not good. I worked hard to modify the thread and edited it after it was reported as a duplicate post. But, still it was deleted. I don't get this. And, now I see that I got a warning too. This is really not the way to treat someone without giving an opportunity to edit the thread. What use is the 2 hour edit limit if we cannot use that feature being premium members.

    Did you already post a similar thread before?

    Because it was an infracted thread I suspect this is why it was deleted. The only thing left to do is to start over and rewrite. Nobody wants to receive a warning, but when it happens...time to move on.

    The earlier thread which was reported as being similar to this one was for news stories.
    I don't like this one bit. I know what is a fake report when I see one.
    I modified this new thread pretty well and the earlier one was for news stories.
    This one is for writing articles. Where is the similarity.
    I mentioned the price which is different. I ended it almost the same way.
    But still I changed the whole damn thing to ensure it wasn't deleted.
    What use is this 2 hour limit for editing posts when you don't even give the OP a chance to do something original.
    This reporting system and the monitoring system is flawed.

    Most people seem to believe that if they slightly reword a sales thread they can re-list what is essentially the same service over and over.

    I don't know what some of you guys have against me. But, something needs to be done to ensure that this doesn't happen again. You guys have really done this shit to the wrong guy.

    I've been here long enough to say with 100% certainty that the staff *do not* have vendettas against any member. They only use the rules as to what actions they take or don't take. No one has anything against you one way or the other.

    Is one a content creation service, and the other is not? What you are writing is irrelevant.

    This is about us not allowing duplicate threads on this website.

    Listen Digital POINT. I don't know what you are on but essentially what you have just done is quite wrong.
    I understand if the earlier thread was selling news stories and this last one (which was selling articles) were both selling articles, but they weren't.
    Anyway, what you have done you have done. And I am pretty sure that you know exactly how to get away with such stuff and that is why you guys keep doing it.
    This one shall be remembered.

    Errr... Okay? {shrug}

    There is nothing to "get away with". The reality is if we didn't like you or something, we could just wipe out your entire account with the click of a button. That's not the case though, all we are doing is enforcing rules that have always been in place.

    Never heard of the second one, but if you are selling two unique domains, you can under the Sites section.

    You need to be on something, mate. I told you before drinking while DPing will help you calm down.

    No one is being vindictive against you, we all have to live by the same rules. You're taking stuff way too personally.


    Relax mate, learn from warnings and move on with business. ;-)
