Thank you for detailed message on this post... It definitely helps me ! But, i just wanted to let you know my side of the story....
...
snip lot's of unimportant backstory
...
I was new to the forum and there were no rules or guidelines that I could find anywhere on the forum to learn about the rules here... or may be rules were written somewhere but not at a good enough place to catch my attention about what is right or wrong on this forum !
So... as someone who apparently loves to read and research and learn... you completely missed this entire board: Beginners & Help...

which in the very first section contains this link: Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ (which is a sticky at the top of the Meta board)

This wouldn't change a thing... people just blindly click "I have read the terms and conditions" and move on... and I suspect you would have done EXACTLY the same thing if you'd been presented with a list of Terms, Conditions and Rules when you signed up.Quote
I was just not in a frame of mind to spend time to " learn about how to use bitcointalk"...
And this is the end result. Much like someone who is "just not in a frame of mine to spend time to 'learn about gun safety'", you have shot yourself in the foot... you have no-one else to blame, but yourself.Quote
I was not told or aware that buying / selling on bitcointalk is not right....

I accept that I may have committed a mistake back in Jan 2018... And I am writing this post to let you know that the mistake was done unknowingly...

Till you are not told that something is wrong, you assume it is right
