I have a question!!

Someone deleted my post. All the post was, was that I have a site that does free reviews, there professional web site designers, and you guys are welcome to check it out.

IT got deleted. This is not very fair, since I even check the rules before I posted to make sure.

Quote from the RULES!

"If you own a Web Site that has **information** specifically related to the topic being discussed, you are encouraged to post a link to the portion of your site that discusses the topic. "

So can you tell me why that post was deleted?! I mean its offering free reviews in a review section of the site!

if anyone wants to check it out.

The post was deleted for a couple of reasons. One it was posted in the website critique area. It was never requested that anyone review this site. The only request made was to go to the site and submit your site for review. This was also your first and only post here at WMF. I consider it spam since it appeared that the only reason for the posting was to drive traffic to the site.

Zenatek,
I wouldn't get too angry about it. Unfortunately we mods get a lot of spam posting by people on their first post. It is always best to err on the side of caution. Mairving meant no slight on the service.

cheers

Zenatek, the paragraph just below the one you quoted:
"Creating a thread to get users to visit your site is inappropriate in all forums but the Web Site Critique Area (you are only allowed to request site design reviews in that forum)."

If there is no answer on Google, then there is no question.
