MoSiouxFan Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 It says "0 warning points" under my name. Just curious as to why that is, as I don't see anything of the sort under other names, although I haven't checked them all. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing it's only something you can see on your own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxFanatic Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Guessing it's for moderator's to send warnings to a user when they are breaking the rules. My bet is you rack up enough warning "points" and you'll get get banned temporarily or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimdahl Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Yep, it's part of the moderation system. Forums with more formal moderation systems could use it to track infractions and change user statuses when they had accumulated a certain number of warning points. They way we moderate here we don't really track formal points, so the only way it will go up is if a mod contacts you for some reason, and there are no automatic status changes based on the points. And, yes, you can only see your own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
