reason for lock <unlocked>

hi

i am one of the many traders in the for/sale forum trying to trade visual studio.net and win xp, amongst other things.

A mod locked it, for the reason that i cant sell nfr or academic software. However, i was not selling it my thread states that winxp and vs.net were for trade. While the ps2 and games i also included in the thread were for sale.

I dont see how i was locked, while others also trading the same items were not. If i was in the wrong, fine, but please let me know what exactly i did wrong, and what others are doing thats ok.

Thank you for your time everyone who reads this and mods!

I agree that it looks like you were locked in error by the trigger happy MOD. 😉 I see nothing bootleg in there, and you did state FT on the NFR goods. It is now unlocked.

Any academic software is supposed to be non-transferrable..selling/trading or even including them in a sale or trade is not allowed, they are only to be used by students in schools that signed up to Microsoft's academic plan.
 
Looks like the mods are having a bad day. This is the second time they've made a boo boo today. Looks like it's getting close to the time when they'll need to cash in the Moderator Vacation Fund.
