Ban Me But Don't Censer Me

I asked Nikkid this question once in PM and from reading Team Chat Weekly she brought it up and it was rejected and her attacked i think .

Personally, I think that it should go down if the warning is months old and the member has not exhibited the same type of behaviour since that time. I also think that some of the things warned for are at times frivolous, I don&#39;t see a need to increase a warning level if someone has "misbehaved" in some way and stops after I send them a PM, unless the offense is particularly heinous.

As it currently stands, an increase in the warning system is permanent - they are not decreased.

Do you think it is something worth bringing up in team chat.

Encouraging people to behave a certain way will possibly work better than battering them with a big stick when they don&#39;t. [/b][/quote]
I&#39;ve done that as posted on page 1 ...still awaiting discussion, comments, remarks etc.

Actually, no, that was for something a little different related to warning levels.

@ J&#39;Pol, there has been discussion on it recently, I&#39;ve just bumped it.

It seems obvious to me, but if it&#39;s not the way the board wants to go then cool.

If and when I reach my warning limit I will obviously find out by default and go on my merry way. Knowing that there was nothing I could have done to lower the level.

I suspect that this will also happen to a lot of other people, given enough time. Who amongst us never crosses the line, or does the wrong thing.

Thanks for that.

Also thanks for that, again I didn&#39;t see your post before I made mine.

Whilst there are a few mods about, can we clarify the level going down as well as up issue.

Does it ever go down, or is it a one way street.

I have seen warning levels go down actually,
but it is not very often.

This is a issue we&#39;re going to be talking about in Team Chat.
I&#39;d say there is improvements to make on the current system also.

Might take a while, as usual, as we get all the Mods online and chance
opinions before anything really happens, if it happens at all.

Also, I will be reading the board to see some fresh and good suggestions
(as always) and Moderating Threads if needed.

So I wouldnt hold my breath until you&#39;d see changes.

I am not one of life&#39;s breath holders.

It is enough for me that you are going to discuss it. If the consensus is against my opinion then that is as cool as a cool thing.

Leading a blameless life warnings are obviously something which do not effect me.

As ever I am only thinking about the little people.

I&#39;m probably on the cliff as it is.

Is this true now that no one can be flamed?

Or just noobs?

If I get flamed can I flame back? I find it amusing at times.

Do we both get raised up?

Samsamsamsam for instance, he created these Stars that you see below your avatar, if he wanted to he could request they all be removed, but he&#39;s a nice guy and still wants to be part of the forum.
