How come I never saw that post. Oh right I was asleep.


Did sleeping suddenly make you dumb and forget the rules?

It's the content of the post is what makes you get infracted, if that wasn't clear enough.

Molgera, he already said how your posts was spam. Right now you're just butthurt.
And now you guys are just ticking off the mods.

Not butthurt. Just learned something by mistake. (again)

Sorry Hewitt. I'll delete that post for you.

It's useful. Only use it when you make an extremely stupid post by accident though.

When you edit your post there's a delete button. Click that, then something else will show. Click Delete this and then the confirm/delete button under it.

Or you double post.

And, mods can see deleted posts.

Yep. That's how I got the infraction I mentioned before. It was on the Mafia thread, late game.

The mods will see it and you will get infracted. Also, it will probably appear as the thread's last post. So, no.

Not what I mean. If a thread has been unusually inactive for about a day, and if you are the last post, you can delete the last post and re-enter it. It allows you to stealthily bump it back to the top, and it's not TECHNICALLY double posting.

The mods will still see what you did. If Hewitt sees it or some other mod like him you'll still probably get infracted. You've also revealed the trick on here. Good luck doing it now.

But it isn't breaking rules. Bumping is usually defined as posted on a thread that has been inactive for a week or more. It's not double posting or bumping if you do it within 3 days of inactivity - it's basically just moving up the list.

But your still technically double posting because the mods still see the double post.
