    This is not a request to remove my infraction, but just to clarify a small detail that may occur again on this forum.

    Regarding this thread: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1613052

    I have asked "What is the niche?" and I've got the following infraction:
    points: 1
    reason: Inappropriate / Disallowed Post

    I've noticed that another user has been asked the same thing, but the difference between the two posts was just a few seconds. We have posted on the same time. Admins should check the posting time before giving infraction to the second poster.

    Others than that, thank you for this great forum :)

    That happens to all of us. When I post and see that has transpired, I use the go advanced edit option and delete the post.

    don't feel bad, 2 other users came behind you and pretty much asked the same question and they got the same thing.
    good rule of thumb is don't ask a question thats already been asked.
