Two things wrong with that logic. 1. "If you are selling for several items at the same time" Ok I was selling one item.

2. An end update is perfectly within the means of common sense. I was trying to sell something. Not posting that time update would have given me a worse chance at selling my item.

It was not an identical thread. It was a thread warning people about the little amount of time left before the item ended.

you do realize making a new thread about the same thing is the same as a bump, right? not technically, but in all practical ways

New thread, new content in regards to the same item... not a bump.

Except it's not new content!  It was the same content, at a slightly different point in time!

BLUF: Here, the word of the mod is the word of god.

Kitsch is a sensible guy and genuinely cares for the well being of the site. If he has asked you not to do something, then you should listen. He gave you a warning, which should be a clear indication to refrain from doing anything that could further incriminate you. Because you didn't listen and proceeded on your merry way, this is the result. I am sorry if you don't like that some places on the internet enforce their rules; that's just how it is here. As I haven't seen you around very much, I would go so far as to say that you lack the understanding of what a moderator does and how his position must require him to take such actions. Your best course of action now is to apologize and save some face, because you're making a right fool of yourself right now.

OK new reason for posting a thread about the same item. Different point of time gave me a new reason to post the thread. A time update.

You guys really don't get it do you? I did listen. "Don't pointlessly bump your sale threads without giving an important update." Ok I got it. I did nothing against the rules. You guys are exhibiting every logical fallacy in the book right now.

Closed.  Respect the rules. If there was miscommunication- shit happens- we are on the internet.

Also this site is community first, sales are a non-issue and you're just adding fuel to a fire that does not exist. Try helping the community instead of making a profit.
