Warning Points?

[Deset Gled]

I was just updating my account info (now that I have a CSA account) and noticed the "Warning Points" section. I was not previosly aware this system existed. Do the mods actually use it? Every time "discipline" has come up on the boards, I've only seen mention of temp bans and perma bans. If my points happen to reach maximum, would I receive a temp ban or a perma ban? Do points ever expire?

Nope, we don't use them. They're too "mechanical" and don't take into account a lot of the things we consider.

That's "one," Mister!

Can we get "fabulous!" points?

That would be soooooooo metrosexual of us!

Thanks for the info, PC.

Now you tell me. Sheesh.

Maybe we should have "color points" -- black, white, red, blue and green. You can "award" them to people arbitrarily. Meaning may emerge, or it could become a hivemind fad.

Or it could become a jumping-off point to (horrors!) Magic the Gathering, as those are its 5 colours...

Quick, better add purple!

Psh, warning points are so passe. Nowadays we just put people "on notice."
