What kind of posts gets deleted?

[Qooo]

Wonder how come my posts in this forum were deleted without any explanation?

From the last time I checked, I think it didn't break any of the folloing laws ley:

Solicitation

 

No advertisement or solicitation of any kind is allowed in MCF forums. Hence any threads or posting which are deemed to be a solicitation or advertisement of services will be deleted promptly. Please read the "Ads and Solicitation Guidelines" for more information.

 

 

Anyway... Don't eat Kermits. Frogs are nice. Don't eat Turtles either. Turtles are nice.

There are such things as forum guidelines.

 

The moderators hv the right to delete them without ur knowledge coz this has been going on on on - guess they r dead sick n tired to keep on reminding forumers to adhere to the rules.

Hi there,

 

Other than those things you have pointed out. And as Panda have also pointed out, threads which contain advertisement and solicitation will be removed.

[Gadgeter]

Yes, thanks for pointing that out.

 

MCF have been unique in its own way and we are trying very hard to maintain it. We wouldn't it to become another 'Delphi'.

[Qooo]

Oops...!

 

I thot solicitation is when I get some benefit from it like comission of some sort. What about if I come across a nice food stall that I want to share. Will this be considered solicitation?

[Acemundo]

salah.......solicitation by its english meaning is an act not a consequence.

 

as long as you started action to offer service or procure business, there's solicitation not withstanding whether any tangible benefits received.

[Qooo]

Thanks guys for clearing the air. Sorry for breaking the rules.

 

Next time I'll be more careful when posting.

[Acemundo]

haha.....not me lah, i only explain the english part of it.

[Gadgeter]

no worries... Don't be shy to ask if you have any more doubts.
