I posted an affiliate linked event.

I apologize. Didn't RTFD. Which I should have. But not surprised since I do in fact have ADHD and am impulsive.

I agree this was a bad call, I should not have posted this on my admin account. I didn't know I had GOD powers. Eeek.

I thought it was more informative than spam.

Again, I am really sorry.

I will get better at RTFD'ing.

I'm down for the apology. It just lost all impact when OP immediately follows up by blaming ADHD and impulsively. That's exceptionally uncool considering the community that was affected. The sarcasm is also problematic especially considering the level of authority that was abused here. The post couldnt be removed by the exact people who are supposed to be able to remove content when needed. To take the attitude of "big deal, so scary" compounds my suspicion of immaturity and is not encouraging to see in an administrator.

I was just making light of the fact that I do have ADHD and didn't think. I made a mistake. ADHD Or not.
