Deleted thread - why? - "new kit"

[DBPhotography]

To the mod who deleted my post,

Can I ask why it was deleted? I was offering a service which I normally charge for, for free! So I don't see how it broke any rules and its not touting for work either, was just offering someone the opportunity to have something for nothing!

Please can you either PM me or leave a reply on here as to why it was deleted.

I know it seems like a silly rant, but I placed it up across my social feeds linking it back to this thread and now I have a dead link. granted I can delete the post, but for the majority of the evening people have been looking at something I have offered, but can't get it!

If you check you emails you should have received a mail for each removal, within the mail if will have stated that you will need to seek permission from Paul Garlick before you're allowed to make a post of that nature.

HTH explain.

There it was in the junk email.

Apparently it was an advert? I don't see how its an advert! I was offering something for free. :s

I just ordered some new camera kit and I want to try it out so I offered one person who had the right car I was looking for, some free photos so that I could get use to my new kit!

Sorry but regardless of being a free service, it was still deemed as an advert and as such removed.

Again you will need to seek prior approval to make a post of that nature.
