why was this deleted
I made a thread in the traxxas section asking everyone how much they thought my revo was worth http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_6096008/tm.htm
then it got edited by lightfoot because we were talking more about dirtbikes than rc, and he even edited out the part about why i was selling in my post(the dirtbike) and i completly understand why he did that. so i decided to make a new thread in the off topic section so i wouldnt have to worry about being "off topic" and in the old thread i put "moved to off topic so i could say why i was selling
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_6098855/tm.htm "
So did i do somthing against the rules?
Did somthing happen while i wasnt there?
was it because i made 2 of the same threads? <<<if it was that could you please leave the one in the off topic and delete the one in the traxxas section
this is the one that got deleted http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_6098855/tm.htm
Thanks
Justin

RE: why was this deleted
While I didn't remove that thread, it's pretty obvious why it was removed. You cannot sell items in the RCU forums.
Just because you posted in the Off topic forum does not mean that you can sell an item there. The way you worded your post it appears that you are trying to sell it in the forum.
Second, it was removed because it was a duplicate post. You had already posted the same post in another forum. This is considered spamming by the RCU Community Rules, and is not allowed.

nitro, you're probably better off just putting it on ebay or similar and posting that it's there....maybe.
