Duplicate thread - Infraction / New thread same title

    Hi,

    I just got a duplicate thread infraction. Don't get me wrong but the thread was a sale that lasted 24 hours. Can't I repost that one after that time?

    Looking forward on a bit of a clarification. Since I am selling links in the Sales Link forum I always have new sales going on on the same sort of sites.

    Thanx...

    PM or public response is appreciated but from the DP forum managers, no need for everyones opinion.

    Dean

    Duplicate threads are not allowed. Never set up an end time for a sales thread if you ever want to sell same thing again.

    OK one link per day (24 hour) one specific page allowed? or called same product?

    Also wondered why 2 infractions and not just one. I got two for two individual posts. Thats great way to accumulate point very fast and not have a change to improve...

    The timeframe is irrelevant. Duplicate threads are never allowed.

    Shawn, is it possible to remove the two threads below
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2044998
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2053155

    They both where the original threads that are marked now as sold and copies of these where removed and infractions where given.
    Now there marked sold, because of the end time of auction. You can remove the sold part whatever works better or faster.

    Nobody will respond to these anymore if there marked sold, but I also cannot start a new one due to duplicate content problem.
