Well Today I recieved an Infraction for Bumping One of my threads. ...?? The Post was made origanally on the 15th of April today now the 21st 6 days later my partner posts in the thread "Still available. Grab a bargain! " This telling people the site is still available not sold yet. He then gets an Infraction for bumping my thread and I recieve one also ...... Why is this ? Clearly the thread was Replied in to let people know the site is still available for sale. after 6 days this was to save making a whole new thread. And secondly why did I recieve an Infraction when I clearly did Sweat FA wrong ..... Can the Powers That Be here EXPLAIN this to me ???
1) Not allowed, thats called "team bumping" 2) Post had "no value" 3) see Infraction faq for more details ( over 400 posts to help you )
LOL So if I had made a new sales thread for it nothing would have been said.... ?? After 6 days ..... 144 hours I would not class this as bumping. This is informing people the site is not sold and that it is still available to buy. Why should I recieve the infraction though as well ?? Mypartner had recieved one for it... no need to punish me as well ... I had not commited any crime....
Sundaybrews totally right, live and learn, and most of all, dont complain (unless you want red etc Dam im good at rhyming Not good at spelling though...
I think that people who are worried about infractions are the same people who get worried when someone looks at them the wrong way or a black cat crosses in front of them. Seriously, what harm has been done? If the bump was allowed, people here would outbump each others threads 1,000s of times daily. Some rule needs to apply, infractions need to be given and now you know. Mike
Are you going to get an Infraction for your post 2) Post had "no value" Your post is pointless and has no value. If anything you are also breaking this rule Personal attacks against people, or sites will not be tolerated. If you have an issue with someone or their site, take it up with them personally. I understand rules are put there for reasons and rules should be followed are you missing my point here. 6 days had passed and a reply was made. I could understand if it was only 24 hours or so. My partner received the Infraction for "Committing The Crime" Then I also receive an Infraction for doing nothing.....
Infractions dont mean much really. Just take the advice given in the infraction and move on. I think why people get upset from these is they dont see that alot of other people get them too. Just like I got one yesterday for making a thread in the wrong category. Opps I messed up, but now I will double check each time before I post.
I am the first one to stand up and be counted if I messed up But why should I recieve an Infraction for another members rule breaking ?
Bonzer you posted. "Site is still available." That is one of the type posts that is considered a bump. Others will be happy to attest they have received the same infraction for the same statement.
join the infraction club m8 , everyone gets them , you bumped a post and got an infraction for it i have a few waiting to expire as i post , just get on with it dude
I know it might be tempting to bump your thread back into the first page but, just think how nasty it would have been if everybody did that.
i have a collection of over 90 infractions, i even had screen shots of them for sale at $5 each. wanna buy some? i got more infractions than most people have itrader
I really hate all these "why did I get an infraction" threads. Think clearly before you post. If you got an infraction, you'll have one for a reason.
That was clearly a bump mate. Just imagine what will happen if all sales thread are being updated by "Offer still available" posts... chaos! --Joe
