What does warning points mean

Featured Replies

I have one warning point. I am wondering how many warning points can I have before I am banned. Thank you in advance.

I don’t know the answer to your question but if you don’t want to get any more of them, then just follow the rules of the forum.

It's more of a placeholder for the staff. We keep notes on all reported posts, and infractions we levy on our own. We have members who've tested lots of rules and gotten many points but are still here. On the other hand, if you keep breaking the same rule over and over, we're going to assume that will always be a problem for you, and you'll be banned. 

We normally suspend before we ban, to show the consequences of poor behavior. But we don't have a rigid system, and try to take context into account.

Discussions lose their meaning if they aren't done right. The rules were designed to keep discussions interesting, meaningful, and civil.
