Default Just got a spanking.......
A moderator told me I just received 2 points.....

I guess I better spend some more time reading the rules of the forum.

Can anyone tell me how the points system works? Can I go to traffic school to get the points removed?

Not sure what I did. I guess you have to be really careful how you word things in the for sale section.

One of the rules that you need to be aware of is that you should communicate directly with the mods or admins about matters such as this and not post them in the open forum, also - this is not C5 General related so it will likely get moved or locked down.

Just to help you out - here's a link to the Forum's Guidelines and Rules -

Good luck, I think you're going to need it!
