So I recently posted a thread that was removed without any message or email to me explaining, or even saying why it was removed. This leads me to believe that it was an error, and thus I am asking if it was intentional. It was a question asking if I could use generic software on an iPod, or manually install iPod software without using iTunes, since iTunes is very picky on windows. It was posted in Audio under iPod, software and formatting.
Does any of this violate the rules? Is there a rule restricting questions from new members that I didn't see mentioned in the rules? Or is manually uploading software to an iPod, even when the question also asks if you can manually upload legit iPod software, in violation of the rules and/ or illegal? I would assume that it isn't illegal since there are many existing ways to get an iPod formatted and synced to a different music player, but the majority of those [strike]use[/strike] involve iTunes, which I would rather avoid using entirely.
My tone in the last two paragraphs is inquisitive, and not angry or aggressive. I know that isn't the easiest thing to "hear" from text, so I just want to point that out in advance so that everyone reading this knows that I just want to know the reason my thread was removed without any message. And that I am not complaining about it having been removed. I appreciate anyone explaining this to me. Thank you.
