No it is not! If you stay within the lines set by the forum you will not get any infraction. It is there to maintain the quality of posts. I personally recieved two infractions recently. Although I am not happy about the infractions I have no complains! I never post to increase my post count! All the dissapointments does not necessarily mean the system is fu*ked up! Get on with it.
You can read rules here.Actually one must read it before asking questions etc in suggestions and feedback forums..as some users asks?Why i am not able to post there etc.. Saad
