Same as a warning, in effect, but allows you to be more aware of what you get. Wouldn't you rather know what you have? Also, warnings are easier to use. They add no points, and one click to the profile (or even in the postbit) it's obvious to see what's going on with them...

Usernotes are like warnings/infractions, but they kept users in the dark, as well as being less practical to use.

People think of warnings like infractions;

User notes of PM's - not warnings, simply reminders.

A warning sends a PM automatically, it's just like User Notes, but faster and easier to use. If people see warnings as Infractions, that's their fault for not reading the FAQ, and also a PM and a User Note would be there as a log for future offences to be judged on. They're very much the same thing
