Im annoyed........
I made a comment in the ebay section about the guy who has 3 posts all pugging his ebay listing of his Tic Toc print. I wasnt rude I said "3 posts, 3 plugs...... way to contribute to the community". My post was deleted and I got a PM from a moderator "Don't be a jerk. Tell a mod if you think someone is abusing the board."
Was I being a jerk?
I wasnt even close to being a jerk yet I get my post deleted. On top of that this guy randomly plugs his ebay auction in the artsists Josh Keyes thread as well and that dosnet get deleted? Its not the Josh Keyes thread was active, it hadnt been posted on in a week. He is using that thread to get people to notice his ebay auction. Yet Im the one that gets reprimanded? I think I contribute a little bit more here than Supertoast.
Not a huge deal but come on now.

Bonsey. Im not sure what happened, but im sorry.
If a member is new, they get special treatment just because I dont want people to feel unwelcome.
Everyone here knows you contribute to the site.
As for you robot oil. Stop it.
What are you talking about. Banter is allowed in off site commerce, but is not allowed in the others. Does stuff slip by? Yeah. We could use more help. Id as if you wanted to be a mod, but ... edited

I really hate PMs. Please just email me.
Re:
Im not saying what the mod was the correct action. I was simply apologizing.
I dont think I was being a jerk to the new member and Im all for new members but lets be honest here: the kid joined, posted an ebay plug, and has since posted two more times, both about his ebay auction. I dont think he is going to be a contributing member to this community. Its not like I was irrate about what the kid posted I merely said "3 posts, 3 plugs..... way to contribute to the community", whats so bad about that? It dosnet need to be deleted and call for a PM being sent to me saying dont be a jerk.
The moderator followed up with a PM saying he has since taken care of the plug in the Artsits Chat thread. This means he didnt even initially see what all 3 of the new members posts were, he just deleted my post, sent me a PM saying I was being a jerk and that was the end. Maybe if he took the time to read all 3 of the new members posts he would have seen where I was coming from, but he didnt.
Im just pointing out some heavy handed big brother stuff that really isnt necessary. This place has been running smoothly lately and there is little need for moderators to delete peoples thoughts.
