Bump Policy Violations

Garr · Post by **Garr** » Mon Jul 23, 2007 8:45 pm

Hey,

I just woke up, and I wasn't thinking straight. I deleted about 4 threads for being in violation of the bump policy and I didn't get PMs sent out. I'm sorry. If your thread is gone, it's for that reason.

Remember this thread:

I think that I accidentally hit the x for the whole thread.

I'm trying to be supportive of locals bands and get teh word out about the show this Thursday. I'm pretty gun shy of even wasting my time on a new post if it's just gonna be deleted, but I suppose I will try again.

My Response:

Hey, I'm sorry, man. I promise, I wasn't thinking. I woke up at 9 PM, had a bunch of posts that were reported through the report feature, and just started cleaning up. I promise not to moderate while under the influence of sleepiness again.

I'm normally not the guy to just delete without looking at things, but this time I made a mistake which is why I posted about it.

The key is remembering that we don't allow posts that appear to be made just to get a thread back to the top of the screen. I don't honestly remember what yours said or was, but someone thought it was against the rules and reported it.

Really, I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking straight. Please forgive.

there's only 4 or 5 people on here (and several are the same person) who don't get it.....send this to them, not all of us.

Thanks for your suggestion. I'd rather post publicly since I can't recall whose posts I deleted, and to keep awareness up. And for the record, I didn't "send" this to anyone, I posted it publicly for anyone who chooses to read it.
