Why was the thread locked and a member ( I dont know who) banned?
What rule was broken - I checked the rules and i couldn't see that any were broken.
Just out of interest.

his post was considered spam since he was brand new and it was one of his first posts asking about directly getting guys to play live for one of his events.
I didn't mind it and thought it was nice of him to ask around here for talent but not everyone shares my thoughts and it could be difficult to draw that line again in the future.
This isn't confirmed but it's my best guess as someone had posted that those reasons and then reported it to a moderator.
hope that helps a bit (and also hope its true so I don't look like an ass for taking part in the rumour mill!)
