    Once, for not reading the BST rules before posting. Won't happen again, I hope.

    I got an infarction when I started but didn't even know I had it until I was notified on email. recently got banned once but dont actually know why. I think it was relatd to a thread where a number of people got banned all at once bu tI thought my contribution was valid at the time. I know I had a problem when they introduced the rule about pm sent as I spotted the rule too late.

    I like it here so am hopeful it won't happen again

    I've been banned once, for saying PM sent, as did many others in the thread. The original OP asked for everyone to post in it and even via PM asked, being new I didn't know what to do so posted and got banned.

    Received an infraction this morning too :mad:. For "increasing post count/useless posting".
    Apparently writing a post with 2 sentances of additional information and a quick lil msg telling someone I PMed them (not the reason I was posting either just needed the additional info on, and thought I'd add that while I was there) is worth an infraction and the post with information deleted.

    Shame really, I've never been banned anywhere else or infracted, so I'm quite angry at the infraction I got this morning, but relieved at the same time, I could have been banned instead, which would have been utter stupidity if I had imo.


    Ah well, guess ya learn, not to add "PM sent" when writing additional details :).

    Hopefully I won't receive an infraction/ban again, but, I've read the rules, and I've written rules for various sites, yet I have problems with understanding all of DP rules because some are like, well if I post this will I get banned :confused: or is it okay :confused:.

    No worries, I had this increasing post count/useless posting too. Just be alert reading the rules. Post when you feel that your posts aren't just posts for the sake of post counts. Infractions will expire, it won't bug you forever.

    That's the thing, it wasn't a post just for the sake of it lol. I don't care about post count, not on here anyway, which makes it even more absurb to me lol.
    Just gotta be more careful I guess. I'm not sure when it expires actually.

    No ban for me so far. And getting my account ban is something that I don't want to happen.

    I have been banned for at least ten times by different forums, just because I add a link.
