    what can I say, Im impresssed
    I just want to know what can I do when I need to update my sales thread - because I can't edit the latest - and it's normal to post another message.... but you consider it bump... figure a way to let me update my thread then before giving me infractions, ok?
    thanks

    Then I will be glad to share 2 of them with you and I will keep one for myself

    here is what DP administrators should do:
    if author posts a reply to his thread before thread is 24 hours old the message will automatically merge into the first one
    if author posts a reply after 24 hours and nobody else posted before this is called thread bump
    if author posts a reply and someone else posted before this is ok


    BTW namepros allows posts merge - but DP does not - so when DP will allow that I agree to receive infraction for thread bumping
    anyway I hope you will remove my latest 2 infractions which are unfair
    thank you in advance

    Talk about post merge, i think that's bad...

    If someone can edit his orginal post, he can add/remove whatever he wanted..which could be confusing during an auction

    My suggestion will be donnt worry about infraction at all. The more you worry about it, more you will get. I am telling it by my experiance. Yah definately what seems to be alright to you may not be liked by others. So only solution is that from your end follow as much guidelines as you can while posting, rest donnt worry about anything.

    You can edit your posts up to three hours after the fact. Keep that in mind when making that post - think about it carefully, knowing you don't have unlimited editing facilities. If your first post is concise, you shouldn't need to edit it.

    If you can demonstrate in your 'bump' that something significant has changed which was unavoidable and of utmost importance to potential buyers, then I'm sure you'll just get away with a warning.

    Also, if it truly isn't about bumping but about updating, include an image with the dynamic info. Every time it changes (like going from 3 left to 1 left) you can just edit the image on your own server.

    I set a bin here after thread was older than 3 hrs - but I had to post the bin, right? even if it was after 1 day or so...
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?p=1088071#post1088071

    you could take at least one infraction out or whatever... I just dont care anymore
    may I post a reply to the user's bid or will I get another infraction?

    You should have your BIN in mind (if you are going to offer one) before you start the thread. Otherwise, wait until someone asks for one.

    To be honest, that auction is very confusing anyway as you state you won't sell it if the reserve isn't met yet you haven't set a reserve.

    I think you will get more money and attract more bidders if you are more organized right from the start.

    You can reply to a bidder's post - that's fine. Though some people don't appreciate just 'thanks for the bid'. Up to you, it's not a 'bump'.

    If any one wants a great example of that, look at the AdSense and YPN FAQs!
