Why are my posts deleted?

I posted 4 single item listings in the marketplace last night and now they're gone.

Could someone explain to me what I did wrong?

8. Three Items at a Time

from the Rules sticky.

That's odd. I answered this question right away. I must have not un-moderated my own post and subsequently deleted it. Ooops. Sorry about that, Jon.

But yeah, rule #8 is what was noted in our log.

I see. So instead of deleting one of them or contacting me, you guys went ahead and deleted all four of them to teach me a lesson?

Dude, seriously.

Don't go getting all righteously indignant over nothing. The same would have happened to any of us who tried to post four items without asking first. There was no desire on the mods' part to teach you a lesson. As the rule referenced stated, there had been problems in the past so they instituted this restriction for everyone in order to keep it from happening again. You're not being singled out.

Either go back and post three, or PM the mods. You'll probably have no trouble getting permission to post four threads at all once you ask...nicely.

Those long Wisconsin winters can really put one on edge, huh?
