Warning about having links to external low quality rep sites

[Agusfn]

I want to answer to the admin who infractioned me today, as i can't answer to the BOT.
I got this message:

Dear Agusfn,

You have received an infraction at SourceOP Forums.

Reason: Outside rep thread links
-------
Your comment about Steamgifts "reputation" proves that you do NOT understand why it is NOT allowed to link websites like that.

Those are NOT high-quality reputation posts, in fact there is NO quality in those posts at all:

The fee is included in the 2 usd, i won't pay more. I go first if you have more reputation than me. 30+ per transaction please.

Steam profile: http://steamcommunity.com/id/Agusfn/ Add me for quick trade.

SOP Rep: http://forums.sourceop.com/threads/1...read?p=1544090
Backpack.tf: http://backpack.tf/trust/76561198021081220
Also have Steamtrades profile with ~180 positive reps, but SOP won't allow me to put the link here so you will have to check for yourself.

All the best,

My answer:

I understood that you updated the rules, and infractioned me for having a post with external rep (made PRIOR to the rule update), without me realizing about this update. I don't find that this is acceptable, but well, got the first infraction yesterday. I updated my thread to remove steamtrades link, because i also know their rep comments are shit, backpack.tf in the other hand, requires more detailed rep comments.

So my question is: Where exactly do you see a link to steamtrades in my thread which you are quoting, which i have updated with the specific point of removing the said link? You accuse me of having links to outside rep threads that are low quality, after having removed the link which was against the rules! This is incredible!!

I did not issue any infractions upon you. Saying that, your recent post and comment about the original infraction the admin/mod thought you missed the mark on why we have such a rule and why its important to us (sop) so they reissued you a new infraction to make sure you understood.

Based on the posting, I do not disagree with their decision.

[Agusfn]

I am sorry, i didn't understand your answer. The second thread i made did not have any link to steamtrades, only to sourceop and backpack.tf (which has some quality in the reputation comments). So why delete that post and infraction me?

[BlackAdder]

Did you try to tell people that they should check the outside rep thread that you cannot directly link in SOP thread?

If there was a rule that you cannot sell CS:GO keys in SOP, would you tell people that you are selling items that you are not allowed to sell in SOP outside SOP?
