Maybe for having duplicate threads open for same item?

quoted from the rules:
"Don't create multiple threads. Close your old threads before creating a new one. Threads will be locked. "

I dont think it was that this was my very first sales post ever I posted.

I got a response from peteyM3 it said

Did you bump your thread within an hour of the last post? That is usually the reason threads get locked.

Here is the rules for all the trade sections. Hope this helps. http://www.sourceop.com/modules.php?name...ic&t=27108

I guess that is his way of saying that is why I did it but I could see how it may be taken as not a direct answer. There is no bump in the locked thread to tell I honestly thought i waited an hour but with this website on GMT+10 and I live at GMT-5 Its a little hard going back in my browser history and telling how long I waited to revisit the thread. I asked him to actually confirm how long it was for me if he could and give and actual yes that is why answer instead of a question in response. I really do want to know after all the time i put into this.

So I hope I am not sounding like I am complaining too much here but let me recap my experience and I hope you can see why I may have been and still maybe just a tad confused when a simple lock thread post response or quick pm saying locking thread due to excessive bumpage would have saved any further confusion or communication. I wouldn't even had to pm drunken fool and ask him and have him say ask pete and then post this thread and do a forensic analysis of my firefox history with no bump post with a timestamp to judge or a direct answer from the mod. I ve learned more about the timezones in the last few hours than i did my whole life adn I am still not sure the difference between GMT-10 and GMT -5 is Australia or wherever a day ahead or behind on it?? I hope pete can answer how many minutes i waited to bump in his next pm.

So I am just hoping for a direct answer now that I asked directly for it... no pun intended. And watch out first time ever sales posters and first time ever bumpers if its not over an hour since you posted last you will get your thread locked and no notice or reason why so take notes when you bump so you can figure it out easier, Peteym3 is watching you first first timers like a hawk.

I am sorry but it seems like this is a pretty fair website so I dont feel scared asking a simple question like is it normal procedure for a first time poster first time bumper ever to have a sales thread locked with out having any notice or pm sent whatsoever. i thought a good mod would be simple and short and direct "helpful" when they can not cause more confusion in my case.

So i may have posted within an hour of my first post ever but with no post in the locked thread to judge and no actual answer from the mod I still dont know, but am I allowed to ask if you think that is harsh or in the least the roundabout way of telling me and I am sure it took longer to lock the actual thread and respond and paste the response in my PM than it would have taken to just simply send me a pm or leave the bump and post locked thread due to etc. so I and everyone knows. If i get yelled in the next PM response at or locked or banned for asking this than I dont want to sell here anyway and I really dont want that to sound rude It should be taken as a normal moral stance by anyone with a backbone. I have over 3200 Premium and probably over 12000 PayPal transactions and I sell and buy on 5 different PC websites where it relies on trust and a few heatware feedbacks but basically the 900$ cpus get send on faith after the person pays and not by gift either.. and I have never seen an action so harsh as to lock a sales thread for a first time poster first time bump ever with no notification why to tell this person. If you actually wanted that person to have no chance of knowing why and maybe even doing it again that would be that way to go about it I guess.
