You were spamming the board with identical posts which we frown upon. All you need to do is make a single post as most who are into that sort of thing will see it if it posted to the main forum for sporting.

Had you been advertising, your account would have been unceremoniously locked and all posts would have been deleted. In this case only the two additional posts were whacked.

The same thing goes for single line posts only to up your post count. We've been here too long, capisce?

Choose a forum and post in it. Do not make multiple identical posts. If your post is in the wrong forum a moderator will move it. We don't do that too often.

We always delete identical posts in multiple forums.

Probably because when it was posted we were not online and it got buried before we saw it. We are volunteers who hold down full time jobs as well. Some of the garbage does get by us. If there is a thread there when we do see it, we cannot really delete it as it would make the thread worthless.
