Question about getting an Infraction.

[Manga]

I was reading the thread and I got curious.



It's Four points you can get and then it's a Perma-Ban?

Nine points until you get a 2 week ban.

Fifteen infraction points for a one month ban.

Eighteen infraction points for a three month ban.

Twenty points for a perma-ban.

Just another question; sorry if this is dubbed "hijacking", but it's really the same idea xD and it'd be a bit unnecessary to make a whole new topic for something so similar.

I have an infraction at the moment - 3 points, given out in early April. Beside it is a red card. I'm just curious. In the Infraction Guidelines, there's a yellow card and a red card. I never received a yellow card before. What's the difference between both? Can you get an infraction that has a yellow card in your profile?

Yellow cards are warnings. They do not count towards your total for a ban.

If you have fifty yellow cards and only one red card, the red one is the only one that counts.

A yellow card actually carries no point value, it's just a warning posted to your account. Normally Mods only hand these out to newbies.

Oh,It's quite confusing from my point of view.


Thanks for clearing it up for me,Klippy.

A yellow card is a warning. It simply means "You screwed up, but we're just giving you a slap on the wrist. Next time it'll be a real infraction." It's really up to the moderators' jurisdiction whether they give a yellow or red card, though in general most of the time you'll get a yellow card first. But it's not saying they can't jump straight to a red card - some mods are stricter than others and have less tolerance.

Ah, okay.

So you can get handed a red card automatically without getting any yellow cards?

It was my first infraction ever on PC lol so I never saw a yellow card before o0!!

[Edit]

Morkula answered my question before I asked it ):

No problem. If you have any other questions, let me know.

Yep. It depends on the moderator, like Morkula said. But most of the mods know when a member is new and direct them to the rules or give them a yellow card and remind them to check the rules.
