Hey guys,
Let me first say I love this site. Yey.
Ok, I posted a deal today that I was pretty durn excited about, and i think it was deleted. Well, first the url was blocked, then it was deleted. I'm not sure why. I'd like an explanation, if possible.
The deal was at abc ink.
The deleted URl was www.urlhasbeenblocked
Thanks for understanding.

Is abc ink a competitor of slick deals? Not that I know of...I mean, slick deals deals in deals and the ink place seems to deal in ink..? Sincerely, Confused in New Jersey

Maybe because of this?

Certain sites have proven to cause so many problems for their customers that we have added them to our filter list. It's not a "deal" when you get charged for an order you never receive, receive incorrect or inferior products, or various other hassles.

Roger that. Thanks for the reply.
I've yet to get screwed online, so we'll see what happens this time. It's worth the risk if the ink works, since it's normally so damned expensive, and they give you so little of it for the $$$.
Anyway, I appreciate the reply. I'm actually a moderator on another forum and it just burns my butt when posts are deleted without a reason. I know, unless it's blatant spam, I go out of my way to PM the person who's post I had to delete...
But then again, that forum gets about 1/20th as much traffic as this one, so I suppose I can understand.
Anyway, thanks again for the reply.

that's why. we get too much to pm everyone with an explanation. you could have figured it out from the url being changed to urlhasbeenblocked, filters are in place for a reason.
and while they actually might be a reputable company, they could spam our site and have lots of shill's running. only mr sd knows the full story on why people get blacklisted, but they are justified.
