Infraction system information and questions

This does seem alot better, but slightly confusing.

What happpening to the warning sosme members may already have?
 
I'm a bit nervous about this, actually.
I've had some experence with the infraction system at other forums, and it's a bit painful to go to your CP and see all your wrong doings staring at you. D:
(I know you can hide the list, though)
I liked the old system better, but I suppose it's for the best.

Anyways, I have a question.
Can you see warning cards on other member's posts?

Yea.. i get it.. i've seen this at other forums.. This dude got like 10 infractions in a day >.<

Will there be like the opposite? Like a reward system?

Like Reputation that i've seen at other vBulliten Forums
 
I must say that I prefer this system because you can redeem yourself from your past infractions, as oppsed as before ^_^

A question: if you get three points for spamming, and then you are punished for anything else (let's say: breaking the character rule), they also are added to the total (Say: 3 months for spamming and two weeks for breaking the character rule = 3 months and 2 weeks and then you lose all the five points), or they expire independiently because they are different infractions (past two weeks you lose the points for the character rule and past 3 months you lose the points for spamming)?
 
When will this take effect? I don't see it anywhere on the forums yet. I still see the old stuff.

Users will see their own warnings if they have any at the moment. The infractions system will only be set into effect for users with warnings if they need to be infracted: If you have one warning on the old system and we need to infract you, you will receive an infraction representing your old warning and an infraction for the offence you've just committed. Your usernotes will also be removed if that's the case.

So until you do something wrong, you won't notice a thing.

In other words, my warning for flipping out at criticism from years ago and my more recent warning for flaming and flame-baiting are to be considered null and void? Or are they to be considered yellow cards?

Either way, I think the user notes should be either removed or replaced with yellow/red cards, so as to be consistent.

Also, this question was missed.
 
So...what happens to old warning user notes?
Do they get deleted? Mine have been kept for over a year...
 
is there any way to argue the points and actually get them reversed?
 
It all makes sense to me, and the system seems much better and organized than what we did before. This way, you don't get constant questions like: "Why did I get a warning?" from members.

you can dispute the infraction the same way you dispute current warnings.. PM, contact form, etc.

none of the other rules or processes have changed, we are basically just automating the warning system making it fairer, easier to manage, and easier to keep track of user's warnings and expirations.
 
Just to make things sure, if you get 2 points for Bypassing character limit, will it get reduced to 0 after 2 weeks?

If yes, then it's wonderful for rule breakers. xD

Yeah, after the points have expired, they won't count anymore.

I don't think the infraction system is complicated at all. It makes things more clear and fair IMO.

What I've been wondering about though is minimodding, isn't it against the rules aswell?
There seem to be no infraction points for it or would it be simply counted as spam?
 
This should be more useful for the moderators and administrators to keep track of the warnings and bans.
Nice.
 
Wow,this is really a great new system,
I't's a lot more organizing this way.
I hope i don't get any anyway...
Rulebreakers better watch out...

Ok so looking at this my offences would have been gone by now, seeing as they were from flaming + spamming in july and june. Do they count as expired, or are they still there?
 
Wow, this new system seems really interesting, and much more effective than the original warning system. And it is totally understandable.
