i got an infraction?

Guessing...

You posted something so useless, to figure why you took the time to do it, the mod figured you were just trying to run up your post count.

I think there are limits to certain features, like sigs and links, till you get a level of posts. So spammers might just post garbage to get a chance to spam here. So, imho, you are warned.

Guessing again...

You posted something on topic, but in a dead thread. Something you could have kept to yourself.

Since parameters of the web, SEO, PPC, etc, change day to day, rehashing a year old thread it pointless. Unless it it has remained active over that year. Just fact of nature around here, pointless threads get avoided, and active threads remain on topic, and change with time.

------------------

As for pointless, many might figure this thread is pointless, but I feel that this might be a thread for educating newbies.

I too only recently got infractions, it was in the P&R section, and it was rather heated. Imagine that.

imho mods are too strict, the bumping one i was guilty, but the rest i don't agree with and i got this one reversed for some reason... http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?p=1266262#post1266262

 

It looks like it was reported in that thread so 2 Mods probably gave you an infraction at the same time then one retracted when they realized it.

I doubt it was retracted because the post didn't break the rules on post padding

 

can i request this topic locked/deleted please as it has gone a bit wrong.. sorry for my post, i can assure you i will try and not let it happen again

 

I don't know, I only see one of these not 2 as you doubted:

Good news for banned... Aug 15th 2006 7:18 am Reversed 1 Running Up Post Count/Post Has No Value



....hey who tagged me with a -5 rep isn't this thread about infractions

are you serious, i got 4 points already all for Running Up Post Count/Post Has No Value ???? how long is the ban???

 

Ban is till the infractions end.

Like if u have 10 points and u are banned, there is an expiry date in UserCP
If any 1 point expires after a few days, then u are again unbanned.

 

The Webmaster

I don't know more about it. I post here what I see in my USer CP area.

But it is true. Now i get 3 Inraction each with 1 point and One reputation with 20 points.

20 points????? what does mean it??????

 

It means that, you had 10 default points, and someone gave you additional 10 points with a green rep thus total point count of 20...

 

Looks like justsomepoordude got another 5 infractions

 

May be he too went to Somalia to help EGS...
