Moderation Changes Cont.

It's not. No-one can accidently break five rules before any expire. I do agree that the double posting rule needs to be reviewed though. Sometimes, people do accidently do it and still get warned for it (as in your case).

Are the rules still a complete mess though like they used to be? If so, then I think it's very easy to break 5 of them in 2 months.

Paul, you won't get fired, end of.

I've got 8 atm.
But 4 run out by the 16th of April, So I'm ok for now... But I get warned easily.. so :rolleyes:

Hmm. What annoys me is that people are warned for 'accidental' double posting yet people who 'purposely' bump threads just get an edit (a PM at the most) since there is no preset infraction/warning for breaking the bump rule.

Aparrently there was no infraction/warning for bumping threads, so people who bumped only ever got an edit. But I'm pretty sure there is actually an 'other' option when giving warnings/infractions. :S God knows why moderators never used that...

Haven't read this thread but I didn't get an answer in the other one as to how they're going to lower the infraction rate - I've already been infractioned since the "change"

There was a thread about this in the mod section as they are the main people who are going to be affected by this the most, There was also a tread about it here publically as someone leaked info about it and people did discuss it here .

Personally I do think the old system was just fine and this will make it a little confusing for me .

I fail to see how it affects them more than members but fair dos... The fact that there are 100s of times more members than moderators is clearly out of question here :rolleyes:

Because only certain rules will now result in an infraction. Most rules can only be given a warning.

Care to expand on that?

The changes, in my opinion look like a move in the right direction. I also like how there is a defined limit on how many Infractions/Warnings you get before you get a ban, because before it depended on how serious they were, and now it's more fair - one rule for everyone.

If that's the case, surely we should be allowed more warnings?

It's definitely a right move, it's just badly orchestrated.

Hence the reason warnings will only result in a caution. To be honest, I don't know the ins and outs, I know just as much as you so if you want a more in depth explanation, I suggest you PM Elkaa.
