Ok why are my posts being rejected (posting pix)

I posted a pic of me in a thread on the MN (not ad) board in a thread where I asked how to post pic.. I think that was deleted because of "off topic" or its considered advertising.. But it said review TOS..

 
But then I posted it to my ad on the mpls ad board, looked at it before it was approved, Then since I wanted all the pix to be in that thread, I replied to the first new picture with another new picture.

Then both got rejected one for being a "duplicate" and one because the "thread had been deleted"

Did I just try to post a reply too fast? Or is this not allowed for some reason?

Yes for the first mistake, someone told me how to link pix and I tested it where I wasn't allowed. Understood that. But the second and third..

Admin thought I was posting a duplicate thread on my ad so they rejected the original for being a duplicate (when it wasn't) and deleted the second post (because it was a reply to what they assumed was a duplicate so there technically wasnt a thread)

At that point I searched the TOS and couldn't find any reason

When I reposted the pic, waited for it to be approved, then replied with my second it worked.  

And I searched the TOS for why that might happen until I couldn't think of any other conclusion except it was mistakenly seen as a duplicate

You can only run one ad per 7 days and only on boards where you are active at the time or will be in some short period of time.

You can run a picture every day on the Photo Board, however.

It is worth studying up on the ad board policies.

So there's somewhere in the ad board rules that says I can't respond to a thread before it's approved? Because it was approved when I resubmitted it.
Must not be understanding what I was asking.

I had an ad posted.

I responded to that thread with another picture

I then went to "my message boards" and clicked on the picture I posted.

I then hit reply (before it was approved) and replied with another picture.

They both had the same subject and no text but pic

At that point I am assuming the admin saw 2 posts to approve and it looked exactly the same. (This is my only speculation)

Picture 1 gets rejected for being a duplicate

Picture 2 gets rejected because thread (aka picture 1) was already rejected.

I posted this thread

I searched TOS and saw no reason.  

I repost picture 1 and WAIT for it to be approved

It is approved and I posted pic 2..

I don't know why your post was deleted in the first place but you are allowed to hit reply and post subsequent posts on your original post before the ad is approved.  It's only allowed once every seven days and you must have a link to a website that has a TeR link on it.

Your ad was probably deleted for some other reason not because you posted a second photo.

TEr Once told me that I'm allowed to have up to six subsequent threads so a total of seven altogether on my ad.

If you click on "my TER" then click on "my message boards" you can see all of your posts and whether they are pending, active, or deleted. If they are deleted then there is a short explanation as to why they were deleted. If you want more than explanation you can contact TER by scrolling to the bottom of any page and then attach a link to the ad that you're wondering about.

Good luck
