I am not sure why I received this infraction...

I have recently received following reply from DP admin - about infraction. I did go through the details of when I would receive an infraction. But still I didn't understand why I got that... Here is the mail that I received from DP:

=======================================
Reason: Bumping Thread
-------
No bumping

PM sent. Appreciate your reply...

========================================

All that I meant when I wrote "PM sent. Appreciate your reply..." is that I am expecting the OP to reply my PM. The reason being many of the OP's do not reply the PM's.

Please help me understand if I am using wrong language / terminology, and thus violating DP rules. Many thanks in advance.

 

They consider anything along those lines to be bumping even when it is obviously not. Just do not say anything like

pm sent
sold
ill take it
sold to me
sent you details

etc etc etc

Anything like that will be considered bumping these days.

 

you pposted:

thats considered a post that has no value.
it contributes nothing to the thread and the person you PMed will
know they got a PM. we don't need to read that you sent a PM
to someone. we don't care that you sent a PM, so keep that to yourself.

 

Have a look -
