You are currently banned by the antispam bot (until tomorrow) in the Phones and Technology Market section for your adverts in those sections. I'm guessing that someone marked your phone number as spam at some point. That's the only common keyword of those two posts, and a quick search on that number appears to confirm that suspicion - it's been in more than 6 messages marked as spam (I got tired), infact posts that've quoted your posts containing that number are now marked as spam.

The mods of those sections should have handled this, that's if you used the mail mods function to inform them about this. You could have written this post in the general section, but I can understand your dilemma, so I'll allow the derailment. Although, you do appear to be rather prolific with your adverts - stop repeating them, so maybe they got tired of seeing your posts. So, the antispam bot automatically bans you when you attempt to gain momentum. You need to stop and come to an agreement with the mods of those sections.

UPDATE: And one more thing, you've been banned before several times by the antispam bot and it's not been 2 months - this behaviour only started Aug 20, at most it's just been over 2 weeks don't attempt to pull on heartstrings, this is not Tales by Moonlight.

and like u said it started august 20

i remebered i posted something there and i could not find it that was what made me keep posting it and it kept getting lost in d abyyss

The phone number isn't the problem, I'm guessing it has to do more with the frequency and the repetitiveness of your posts, that led to a mod flagging it as spam. Your ban ends at 1324 and 1746 today in the Phones & Technology Market respectively. The current antispam bot ban should be visible on your profile, I was able to see it with no issue, unless there's been a change or something.

Anywho dragnet, honsule & pushkin maybe y'all should have a nice chat with this dude, I understand that NL is not our lives, I don't know the full details from all perspectives (and to be honest, I wasn't ready to go full Sherlock on the matter), so y'all could discuss it in your perspective sections and/or emails. Remember folks keep it civilised & kosher.

Okay, back to scheduled addictiveness...

It's above the most active section & people you're following and below your amount of posts & topics. The copyright bit is too far down. And I know the other detailed specifics because I'm the mod of this section.

When you're thinking of different tactics in taking down your enemy (whether it's that annoying boss fight in MK or your next CoD multiplayer session or whatever), while you're at work, church, exam, talking to your parents etc...

Leaving your console on for an unspecific amount of time because you would lose your progress, if you quit. I believe I did this for one those GoW challenges (I think it was the first GoW, all I know it was on the PS2), thank God that the UK electrical grid is better than Nigeria's. I was stuck on the last stage, so I had a good night's rest, woke up, stretched, ate and pwned the stage.

When you bookmark a website (or 3) for the walkthrough of a game you don't own yet. Or in my case, also for a console I don't own yet. I must get the Ciri Witcher (plus Yennifer) ending in The Witcher 3.

When you watch all the endings of a game on YouTube. Extra Addict Points: If you actually played all the endings of the game yourself.

I'm sitting here watching my PS3 slowly downloading a game (7% of 6679MB)...it looks like I'll keep singing Amy Winehouse's Rehab on this particular addiction.

Anywho...The moment you start quoting prose, while playing a video game, you know it just got real.

You know you are an addict when you keep telling yourself and your family N friends ,that after black ops 3 and Nathan drake collection ,you are not buying any game until unchartered 4 comes out , but you know nahhhhh

When you finish completing a video game, then you restart it on a more difficult setting.
When you finish completing a game, then you download the soundtrack, so you can relieve your favourite moments.
When you know the names of the composers of your favourite gaming soundtracks. Bonus points if you know these guys & which games or game franchises they've composed for - Gerard Marino, Greg Edmonson*, Nick Arundel & Lorne Balfe. Don't Google.
When you know the names of the creative directors, director, lead designer or writers of your favourite games. Bonus points - Amy Hennig, she's been responsible for three franchises, two I've played; David Jaffe, it would be too obvious...
*why the heck isn't he composing the latest one?!

You know you are a game addict when you read more walk-throughs than you read your books during exams. You search for sh*t like, how to kill Vergil in mission 20 (DMC3) and how to complete d Beowolf combos.
You know ur an addict when u start thinking who is gonna win a fight between Kratos(GOW) and Dante (DMC).
