Moderation Changes Cont.

[---MAD---]

Thats silly since a infraction is just under 2 months.

Surely infractions should be longer than a warning

Er what is the yellow block?

I mean the yellow block

I never knew warnings and cautions were different...

They both last 2 months before expiring.

My two infractions both last 1 day less than my warnings

Seems like you've been getting confused too! Warnings are like infractions but less serious. Cautions are when you have your VIP stripped (if you have it), you're not allowed a signature, avatar or usertitle and have limited access to the forums. I think staff who get cautioned lose their jobs too

But what if you broke the rules like 2 months ago and have been a good boy ever since (a)

Infractions/warning expire after 2 months.

I'm not complaining darling, merely giving feedback. Giving my opinion on the automatic banning system and asking for clarification on the system as it was very poorly explained. After a painful hour or so it slowly became clear how this system was going to work and then I understood. I can't complain as such because I don't know how the system is going to work, I was merely attempting to gain an understanding along with expressing my doubts over the idea so those doubts could be eased accordingly .

Ok .

how do you get cautions then?

Also is a caution like when i got no access to Privates Messages?

[-Xiangu-]

surely everyone should be given a clean slate for the new system.

Yes that's another thing that happens!

You used to get a caution from receiving five infractions but with the new changes, you will receive an automatic caution when you clock up five warnings.

Not really, that would mean everyone who has broken rules in the past few weeks would get away with it. I'm pretty sure that would cause more problems than it solves.

Agreed.

I think they should clear infractions and warning's that are atleast 1 month old, to introduce the new system.

BTW Minty +Rep for being helpful!

EDIT: I cant give you rep atm i gave to you not too long ago for something else!

[jrh2002]

Garion my dear, you haven't even given the new system a chance and your complaining about it. I suggest you wait until its in effect and see how it goes. We can then make necessary adjustments from there onwards.

The way I see it, if you don't break the rules, you will never be affected by moderation systems .

What about the racist aussie who warned me? the only person he warned was me that day and ignored all the others even though there were loads.

This isn't being done as we want the previous month to be taken into account as well.

If thats the case introduce the new system in 2 months to give people the time for current warnings and infractions to expire.

surely everyone should be given a clean slate for the new system.

Agreed 100%


I think its a good idea but you have a few things wrong with your system

1) Wipe all warnings and infractions to start or start it in 2 months so we can let them expire

2) you need to get the mod to manually pm us if they warn us.

3) so many warnings should become an infraction and not a stupid caution

4) so many infractions should become a caution

5) so many running infractions after caution become a week ban

6) If people continue to cause probs then a 3 month ban would be better than a perm? also everybody will be on the autoban list until that 3 month expires and causing probs on any other account would mean a perm ban for all accounts.

7) make cautions last a month

8) make infractions last 3 months

You are going the right way but also you should have been much more detailed when you posted it so we knew what was what.

I like gommes idea of different offences get a different level of warning. A bit like driving offences where a swear is 3 points. double post = 1 point etc then after say 10 points you get infracted.

[ThisisNiall]

I got infractioned for calling someone an idiot jokingly.

That would have been a warning before ;l
