hi,

The problem is, you are not posting your thread in the correct forum.

if you post thread in a forum that is not related to that forum, the thread is locked by moderator.

see the rules before posting. only the moderator of the forum can lock and unlock the thread.

Thanks for your reply.

But my both questions are about "How Regular Expression Can be used in ABAP??" and i posted the same in "ABAP General" section.

Any Other reason??

Hi Prashant,

I remember both you questions about "Regular Expression" . I remember it vividly because im one of those people who marked you thread as Abuse.

I guess by now you know why one would mark a thread as Abuse. There are many reasons that could propmp one to use the ABuse button. In my case, i felt it was an easily searchable question here in SCN. I did a dry search on "Regular Expression" and it returned many results. And since you did not make that effort and chose to post a question(which is a violation of the rules) i reported that thread. 5 Abuse reports and the thread gets locked. Then the mod looks into it and then takes a call on wht to do next. In this case I find that the question has been totally deleted.

So next time, pls use the Search Options at SCN before asking a question, apart from following other rules.

Reason's why it is locked..

if you are not following the Rules of engament, If you are asking for links, if you mention the ASAP, if you don't use proper title , if you are posting some Functional/Techinal specs and asking to Code, if you are asking interview questions..

...etc

Then your thread will be locked. I think you did one of the above mentioned...

so next time onwards Follow the rules.

Hi Prashant,

Thanks for your understanding.

If you (had) checked your mail you would find a mail which is sent automatically when the question was locked and rejected stating the reason for this and pointing to "the rules".

Thanks again,

Julius
