I just had my thread deleted by a moderator for no reason. 3 infractions for duplicate thread, it was the same thread, only once posted and not duplicated. The 4th infraction was for a thread I started July 15th of 2012 and it was placed in Buy, Sell, Trade | Content. I have been a member of DP since 2008. So what now. I have to rewrite the entire thread? Oh wait, I can't because then,. and only then will it actually be a duplicate thread. Reason is PRIVATE??? If it was duplicate, then why be so private about it. I charge $0.35 per 100 words, I have been writing for DP members for a very long time.
It's only "private" because you can't read the thread since it was deleted (your email will have the post in it's entirety for you). As far as getting multiple infractions for the same thread, it's actually not possible even if we wanted to. Again... check your email for info about each individual infraction.
