Mods - Please explain the logic and reasoning behind this

There's a guy that recently purchased a proxy network from me. All is well, and apparently he has an issue. He sends me a pm. I promptly respond, and apparently he's refused to read my pm for whatever reason. So all I could do was simply respond to him (ONE time) on the thread. Not wanting the discussion to continue on the thread, I took the initiative to report the thread so a mod could close it for me. To my shock, I then looked at my user control panel to find that I have 3 infractions for reason of "bumping a thread". Are you freaking kidding me? What in the world happened here?? What's even more strange is that one of the three infractions is "private". I'm certainly thinking that I was the wrong recipient of this..

Again, I was the one who requested that the thread be closed. (which it was)

Here's the thread.

If digitalpoint really wants to run a tight ship here, I'd appreciate it if a mod could explain why on earth I received not one, not two, but three infractions all reported within a minute apart.

 

I think complaining about an infraction is an infractionable offense...

Best of luck staying unbanned

 

Excuse me, but I'm not "banned", and I'm not breaking any forum rules by posting and asking for help, because that's what this is. I'm requesting help to understand and to confirm if this was an error. I'm sure it rarely happens, but it's entirely possible that the mod gave the wrong participant multiple infractions. If you took the time to read the thread, you would agree that it indeed looks odd. Like I said I received three infractions all within 60 seconds apart, for one thread. That's just insane. Even if I did something to provoke such an action, how is that even physically possible? So naturally I'm wanting to know what's going on here and would like a response from a mod.

That's fine, I've read that. However, again, who do I communicate with if I have a question? This post isn't simply a moan and complain "oh no, I have an infraction." It's a legitimate question that I have, in regards to what might be an error.

Also if you read those rules, there's one that completely justifies my point here.

I'm simply wanting assistance from a mod to show me where I bumped my own thread. I'll certainly have no problem with receiving an infraction if I could be shown why. Because if you read my thread, I clearly didn't break any rules. In fact, the BUYER was the one that bumped the thread.

Again, I think anyone here (including yourself) would be just a wee bit concerned if you just received 3 infractions (with points) within 3 minutes for a post that you supposedly bumped. Particularly if you're the one who made the effort to request to close the thread.
