unreasonable Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I have it too - I think that you only see your own "warning points". As for what they are, you could try being naughty and get some... but I have been naughty and not had warning points, I have just had warnings! So perhaps they are a mechanic of the forum website design that is not being used? 1
Finkeren Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Indeed. Everytime I've gone too far in a debate and had posts deleted (which is not that often, but it has happened) I keep thinking "Okay this time I'll get my first warning point". I think it's simply a feature in the template used to create this forum that's never gotten used.
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) the warning point are so they don't ban you for ever its like you get 3 months off for bad behavior, then come back. Like over at DCS Wags seen to it that since I complain to him about an admin, he gave me an additional points to ban me; for the same thing the moderator warned me for, so totally unfair action and unbiased; and he doesn't care one way or the other he's a cold cat.So what ya do just stay banned. its funny about Wags though, I talked to one of his constituent's and they don't have nice things to say about him. From the Jane's side of things. Edited June 20, 2015 by 71st_Mastiff
Guest deleted@50488 Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Each one sees only his own warning points - typical of this forum software :-)
Cybermat47 Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 As someone with warning points, I assume we can't see each other's warning points for reasons of privacy. Privacy that I just rendered null and void for myself. Damn.
Feathered_IV Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I've never managed one either. I wonder how many one can earn, theoretically speaking.
Finkeren Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I've never managed one either. I wonder how many one can earn, theoretically speaking. Ask Siggi, if you ever run into him. 4
BlitzPig_EL Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Oh, I'd love five minutes with that guy... Don't get me started.

As someone with warning points, I assume we can't see each other's warning points for reasons of privacy. Privacy that I just rendered null and void for myself. Damn. So they do exist then? What did you do? Hard to believe F_IV's "Nazi" incident did not earn at least one tiny point if they are real phenomena! Why don't I have one? Should I have been ruder to Crump?
Rjel Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Warning points? I thought it said "Warming points" because of my kind and thought provoking posting style?
sallee Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I've just got back from my first ban. Bear was jolly nice about it. But I think I'll give the forum a rest for a while. Just made me feel a bit.....I don't know.
unreasonable Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 You would feel much better if you were to reinstate your little doggy avatar.
Y-29.Silky Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I've just got back from my first ban. Bear was jolly nice about it. But I think I'll give the forum a rest for a while. Just made me feel a bit.....I don't know. Yeah one time I got banned without warning.
Major_Hero Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 I remember..... There was this one time, at banned camp.... 6
unreasonable Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Now I have a horrible feeling that the doggy picture has gone because she died...

sallee Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Now I have a horrible feeling that the doggy picture has gone because she died... No, she's just fine!
Feathered_IV Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Why would anyone ban you sallee? Apart from causing me to never look at rhubarb crumble the same way again, you've been a rather begnign presence.
sallee Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Probably a question of how you look at something I said! No hard feelings, though. I'm sure Bear is constantly getting it in the ear from people via PM about this and that and there may have been some people who took it the wrong way. It wasn't about rhubarb, though. I think that's still a topic which can be dicussed freely.
FlatSpinMan Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Bans have different point values assigned to them. I assume its a way mods can see problematic members at a glance. The more points, the more warnings they have received.
unreasonable Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 No, she's just fine! That is a relief! Now I will not have to post my sermon of comfort on the loss of a pet, complete with a link to "Ich hatt' einen Kameraden" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyBiQaVyLMM Whoops! Now get that picture back up, the GF has been away fro two weeks and I could use a little cheering up!

BraveSirRobin Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 there may have been some people who took it the wrong way. Nothing was taken the wrong way. You deserved your ban. 1
Static Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) I should have some warning points but last time I looked it was zero and I have been banned for a week or two arguing with bearcat and complaining about no custom graphic settings drunk early last year. Edited June 26, 2015 by Static
II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 (edited) Ask Siggi, if you ever run into him. Oh, you have mentioned he who shall not be mentioned!! 100 warning points to Gryffindor! Edited June 27, 2015 by [TBC]HerrMurf
Feathered_IV Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Oh, you have mentioned he who shall not be mentioned!! 100 warning points to Gryffindor! Trolldemort? 1
unreasonable Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Is this some kind of Harry Potter and the Torrent of Drivel in-joke?
II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 (edited) Further, I am delighted my subversive use of rhubarb pie is continuing from over a year ago. It was used as a counter argument with Finkeren and cemented our friendship forever. So, thanks Sallee and FIV for keeping it going. Edited June 27, 2015 by [TBC]HerrMurf
Feathered_IV Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 I just don't get this thread lol You just got your 777th post
