Mod took revenge on my sales thread that have active bidders

    A few days ago, I reported a thread that sold black hat sites, with instructions on how to cheat Google PPC, PTC, make under $50/day and stay under the radar.

    The Mod asked me question, I told the mod that "click fraud" is illegal in the USA and teaching, selling method, websites of any kind on Digital Point would hurt everyone, including members.

    Results? Mod said, that it is only my opinion. Thread is still alive, user, not banned.

    -----
    I have a recent sales thread, that has updated information (not the same as the one a few week before). The current sales thread have numbers which are updated.

    -Updated sales thread with fresh info (The other sales thread does'nt have fresh info)
    -I also have live bidders on the sales thread (The other one doesn't have biđders)

    It is deleted just like that, I receive infraction.

    So my question is, is it the same mod that didn't do anything when I reported and now just delete my active sales thread ?

    Can someone please look into this, a rogue mod? deleting an active bidder's thread (there are over 3 bidders) active and information was update latest this week.

    I have another sales thread a week before (not latest, that should have been deleted instead) with no bidders.

    This one has active bidders

    The thread was
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2014451

    Someone please help, I also like to know who the mod was, if its the one, the same one.

    Does not make sense, a thread which was created yesterday, has 3 active bidders is deleted.

    Well, it's one of two things... someone is out to get you or maybe you created a duplicate thread which isn't allowed?

    Live and let live.. if someone is selling blackhat stuff, let him be. There is nothing wrong with selling blackhat info, then it comes down to what the buyer does with that information. It is like buying a knife or gun.. depends on what you do with it.

    Hope everything turns out ok both for you and the blackhat guy..

    Its not duplicate exactly, it has updated information, and active bidders. Why not delete the thread which has no bidders and less information?

    Policy is just awkward. There are other worse threads I mentioned to a mod, that still stand (that's click fraud I mentioned, nothing happened), but my active sales thread is deleted. What kind of justice is this?

    I could care less about the sale, but I think it would help DP adjust its policy, but if no else care, then I guess this thread will be closed.

    Regarding black hat, it is not just black hat, it is click fraud, promoting it, knowingly promoting it in DP will surely get someone banned by Google, click fraud is illegal. I was just trying to be helpful, but again, if there is no policy for such thing, but instead delete my thread. I can't reason against policies in DP. Therefore I won't reply anymore.

    Just use the report post function if you see things that violate our rules.
