    Hi, Digital Point members (and moderators too!).

    My 7 day ban has just been lifted, and I am in again, and these 7 days has really bothered me.

    I was banned during my sale of Pastedrop, so that came to nothing.

    Well, I don't really understand why you get banned for writing "PM me please" in a domain sales thread - because that was the reason for my ban.
    Can anyone (hopefully the moderators) explain me what I did wrong writing that? Because... I don't have a clue..

    Thanks,

    It's considered as thread bumping. OP ask u to PM HIM, while u post in the thread asking for PM.

    Therefore you will get the 7 Days Ban .

    And starting this thread talking about infraction can lead u to another one.

    Well, then I have to take that infraction and then move on to other forums where you don't get banned for having serious sales threads :)

    Thanks for the help.

    Thread's closed ;)
