And, why were posts that had contact information edited to remove this information? Does exchanging contact information count as “solicitation”? Elsewise, I would like to know what policy was violated, if any. The thread can be found here.
I might hazard a guess that it’s at least partly due to almost all the posters in that thread being minors (not a good idea to put up personal contact information on teh interwebz where every web spider and pedophile can get at it).
