Posting Etiquette (+20 points) - Justin_Bieber - Mar 16, 2017

What does this exactly mean? I didn't understand what rule I violated.
It says: for post: [JUNK] Get Gift Cards For 50%
But my thread is still on. Seems like I double posted thread but I didn't.
Also, I didn't even get a message of the warning. Just got tha warning.
Could someone explain me that? thank you

I got the same warning, for 20%, for posting my semi-popular thread in the SRPP section titled "Fucking your sister", which is about incest.

Literally got a 20% warning for "Clickbait" when not only is it barely clickbait, but half of the threads on this site include more clickbaity titles... SMH

The easiest solution would be to PM the staff member who issued the warning.

Quote:Posting Etiquette of Hack Forums
1. Post in the correct category. Read the forum descriptions if you are confused.
2. Use good grammar. Basically start sentences with a capital and end it with punctuation.
3. Don't double post. That's when you post one after another instead of editing your existing first post.
4. Don't cross post. That's when you repeat a post in multiple threads or categories.
5. Create relevant subjects for threads. Shit like "OMG" for a subject is immature and asinine.
6. When posting content from another site, credit the site; use quotes and link to original content (unless it is a competing forum, in which case you shouldn’t be posting the content).
7. No "Post Here and PM me" threads will be allowed. This includes "Post Here and I'll PM You" or any "Post to PM" threads.
8. Be kind to others. How hard is it not to be an asshole?
9. Act like you're older than 16 even if you aren't.


Straight from the Help Docs. Perhaps you violated one of those rules at some point.

That is not allowed. Your post had no text in it, much less at least 25 characters.
