Hard to know the error of your ways if no one bothers to educate you

    This explanation might be helpful if it was accompanied by an explanation of what the person did. I got one of these infractions today and the only "vulgarity" I've ever used was the word "sucks" in reference to something that did indeed "suck". I felt sorry for the guy and so I said "that sucks". Of course, I don't know if that was the reason for the infraction because no one bothered to tell me what I got the infraction for.

    Hard to know the error of your ways when no one takes the time to educate you.....

    So it must have been a private infraction? Otherwise you could go see what the post was, right?

    Yes, according to the faq private means it was already deleted so I have no way of knowing what it was that I did. And since I don't deal in porn, and I don't cuss on forum boards I have no idea what I could have done to deserve an infraction. Unless someone who works at DP would care to enlighten me?

    I will send you a PM with the post in question.

    The problem involved making a comment in a sales thread. If you are not trying to purchase item or service offered do not comment either positively or negatively. Such comments when found or reported will be deleted.

    Seventy thousand members...
    Three million posts...
    Ten moderators...
    Twenty four hours in a day...

    The maths are easy. That's why we don't "bother".

    Well you only have 26 posts so it shouldn't be that hard to recall which one it was. Did you post in a seller's thread without being interested in purchasing from them?

    Your post was in a sales thread and was comment, not an offer or question. Sales threads are to used for sales, not commentary.

    Thank you for letting me know. I didn't realize it was a sales thread, (guess I wasn't thinking clearly), and the faq explanation of porn/cursing sort of riled me up.

    Anyway, I do understand the math, and I do appreciate you taking the time to educate me. =)
