    I was surprised that I have received infraction point today. I joined couple of days ago.
    Apparently I posted in buy and sell forum and as I have seen I cannot do that.

    All I wanted was to know url links for the websites people are selling as I would like to buy (not to sell!) some websites. (people did not post the url).

    Please note that there are many many and many good places where I can go join and shop for websites.

    I think of myself as a good and positive person and I always try to make my post nice, good and polite and I appreciate other people and I treat them with respect.

    I do not think that negative feedback is helping you to keep new members. It makes for a bad welcome. It might perhaps be better to issue warnings for first few days and then proceed with infraction points later if necessary. It woudl make for a nicer community.

    :) :p ;) : eek:

    Your post belonged in a PM. You are lucky to have just got an infraction, probably because you are new. Other members get a 7 day ban.

    From what you tell, your post deserved an infraction for "running up post count" you got one for hijacking probably by mistake. Though I believe both are of the same Quantum.
