Warnings

I don't know if anyone has brought this suggestion before so I will just voice my opinion. ;)

Why not make it so instead of getting 1 warning for each spam post, insult, etc etc of the like in multiple posts by one person to a warning for each and every post that is spam, insulting, etc etc by the offending person.

That way people will take a moment to think 'Is this spam?' instead of spamming for pages and pages and only getting one warning for it.

This is just my suggestion. I really didn't know where it belonged, so if it is in the wrong section you may move it. :D

That is just how I see. Let me know what you think! :shock:

We can give mutilple warnings to a user for spam and insults if its bad enough.

And it has been done.

Only issue is when we issued a warning for one post we cant issue a warning on that post again meaning if its bad enough for 2 or more warnings we need to search the forum for another post that might be no where close to a warning to warn again for the post in question.

Its a annoying but nessesary evil lol.

Re: Warnings

I am not talking the same post, I am talking multiple posts.

(Just to use a example)

The pointless conversation between Arathorn and Lulz spammed about 3 pages worth in the thread. They would have been banned, instead of spamming the same thread later on with other people which later caused it to be locked. :?

Or that is how I saw it.. but I'm not the mod who locked it. ;)

Re: Warnings

warnings arent meant to be that easily given out...
they'd loose their effectiveness if people got them that easily...

Re: Warnings

I thought it would just be easier to get rid of the trouble makers that spam and ruin the fun for everybody in war threads, general topics, etc. But it was merely a suggestion. :)

Just thought it would be better to voice it, then not.

Re: Warnings

Everyone can go on a spam trip without realizing it can get them warned. And by the time the mod find it, he might already made 10 posts, yet its not that bad thing to give 3 warning for that (or even 10 which is a permban.)

So I would stay with 1 warning / day as long as its not that special case...
