    they have not mentioned for which thread I have been given an infraction

    The infraction has been mentioned as "private"


    what does it mean?Can some one explain?

    Also I do not know for which post I have been given an infraction or the MOD gave me infraction simply for my views on the post above?

    Yea.. people have nothing better to do then give infractions.. I seen alot of people bump threads and one guy announces the same directory 6 times a month in directory forum and doesnt close his other thread.. but nothing ever happens to him, But i replied to a post saying i had more slots open for my service and i told someone i sent a pm to him (Which later ordered my service) and i received an infraction for that.

    I suspect this infraction is for some other reasons and not for a genuine one

    It is clear that infraction is given for this post

    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?p=3647714#post3647714

    in which my views contradict with others!


    The MOD posted the infraction like this

    [​IMG]

    So I should not know about the thread for which I was given an infraction

    But the only mistake was he forget to take the post in the infraction email

    sent to me by the digitalpoint!


    If you have genuine reason post it as it helps some of the members to realise the mistake! and correct themselves

    If you give infractions like this we may not be able to correct ourself's

    If it was a private infraction it has been deleted and therefore you will not find it. Surely you remember if you posted something negative on someone's sales thread.

    Private means the post was deleted.

    Nobody made a mistake by giving the link to the post - it's automatically added in the forum software.

    The moderator involved will read this thread an no doubt review the decision in due course.

    Wait a minute... how can you get an infraction for commenting in a sales thread, when the thread is not even in Buy/Sell/Trade...?

    The post may have been deleted, but the thread is still alive and kicking.

    A) You have no clue how many infractions he has
    B) That has nothing whatsoever to do with why someone would get that particular infraction in the forum in which it was incurred, which is what this thread is about.

    It wasnt a sales thread I reckon. It was that quick bucks crew thread. Noone's selling nothing there.

    Your post has been deleted, so I think you might have used inappropriate language or direct attack on another member or something?

    Ok Sarah said that the moderator would review the infraction. I am sure that if the moderator made a mistake they will amend it. Of course they may give you another one for posting ten minutes a apart without using the edit button on the same thread #46 and #47. I say move on you are not banned and they will expire in a few months.

    According to the infraction email, this is his exact post:

    Btw... what is QBC? I get the "quick bucks crew", but what exactly is that?

    Thx.

    Ohh I see, I cant see anything that deserves Infraction or even warning.

    I think it supposed to list those, who try to make quick bucks by cheating/fraud/scam

    Yeah, sh*t happens. I received an unjust infraction once too. And the funniest thing is I learned that I shouldn't bump threads, but the "inappropriate post" one I received was totally unjust.

    All I said in my post was something like "Are you sure it's worth the price?" (I was about to buy it) and I received an infraction for that. And then I found ViciousSummer's thread here which says:

    "You are allowed to disagree with the opinions of other members but you are not allowed to attack the person or their circumstances."

    If I attacked the the OP then my infraction is fair. :rolleyes:
