Mods,
My thread about surfjunky.com was removed. I did not violate SD policy as I did not post a referral (ie freeipods thread). What gives?

From what I read this quote from your post is probably why it was removed
Of course, you can make more with referrals, but that's not allowed here.
This is viewed as asking for referrals, and that is also not permitted here.

that was a direct copy from fatwallet, as stated in my OP.

Like I said, that's my only guess. I was not the moderator that removed the post, so I am just guessing.

Next time, I suggest previewing what you're about to post when you directly copy & paste another person's words.

i think it would be hard to keep that thread going without getting referal links posted all over the place. i doubt even saying in big bold letter "DO NOT POST REFERAL LINKS" would stop the newbies and noobs... unfortunately.

btw: i signed up and have made enough to buy a stamp so far :D

Ok....this warn level thing is really bugging me. When does it go away?

And note to the mod who did remove my thread and sent the following message in PM:
"
Please do NOT post referral links in this thread...violates SD policy"

Thats exactly what I did do. I did NOT post any links! Is there no way to fight this whole warn level thing, it makes it seem as if I did something bad? I just provided what I thought was a good deal. Now Im stuck with a big red warn level that makes it seem as if im a freeipod spammer!

Why give me warning, if noobs are the one posting? Ive been posting on here for almost half a year, and get treated like an f***ing noob. Geesh, this is making me increasingly PO'ed. W/e ....

Warnings last for 30 days, but can go longer for repeat offenses.

I do clearly remember that if you wanted to help racket2477 help with referrals, just PM him.

I never said you're banned, It was just a warning. Trust me, they aren't that bad. I've gotten one before too.

There referral program is sweet. Pm me if you are gonna sign up, and are willing to have me as your referrer.

It wasn't a copy and paste since you added the above quote to your post and that is why you were warned.

The thread was moved to the lounge. It will be removed if someone posts their referral.
