Warnings

[Swiper the Fox]

I have a 10% warning against my id. No idea who gave it or what it was for. How do we find out? I dont see the point in giving someone a warning for rule breaches without at least having the courtesy of PM ing the user to notify them of the rule breach. Without notification the user cannot then address the behaviour that the warning was issued for.

thanks

no apparantly not, i asked Ash and thought it was for that and he said he didnt give me a warning.

pretty weak to be warned without feedback.

Oh my mistake. You must be his favourite

Sorry for the hijack, carry on.

contrary to popular belief Ash is actually quite a good fella. I spent a bit of time with him when i was in Melbourne.

Slow day @ work boys?

Paulie - didnt it PM you with it? Usually it does i thought... (and no, it wasnt me that warned you )

I can PM you what the warning detail if you want?

Maybe it didnt get sent out correctly!

that would be great Ash...thanks

see he's ok guys

Ash how long does it stay there...how do i get rid of it?

If proper procedures were not used (PM etc) when warning was given, would that make the warning invalid??

BTW...im in a training course...so yes a very slow day...hehe

Im sure you two can work something out

I had a sicky today thats my excuse.

Warnings stay there permanently. There was some debate late last year i believe about warnings expiring and so on.

Eventual decision was they should stay as problem users *might* behave for 18months, and then warnings disappear and they get stuck back into it all again or something similar so it allows tracking for us easily.

You'd be very surprised how many people are on 10-20%, doesnt mean a lot. Only Admin/Mods can see it.

Aslong as you dont get to 30-40-50% then you dont have a lot to worry about, but then if someone has a couple of warnings they might need to revisit the board rules and ensure they do not go against them

If the PM wasnt used i dont believe you'd get off, its just an oversight and clicking the wrong button .. this isn't a court of law in relation to getting off things due to a technicality

Im bored at work too

OK the Mod. in this case had a beef with me last year because he ran a group buy but did not do the research before hand to make sure he could supply the product. I pointed this out to him and he proceded to abuse me via PM calling me a "dumb grease monkey" and the like. The group buy failed due to him being unable to supply the product as i pointed out.

So this warning was a result of a personal vendetta.

So nothing comes up when you click the "10%" or whoever much warning you have?

I got the naughty stick brought out on me for bumping a mates for sale thread, never got a pm, didn't know what it was for until I worked out that I had to click the %.

[Duncan]

not sure what details you were sent but one warning is for a personal attack, the other I am not sure as the details are not complete

was not a personal attack though, mine and many peoples opinion is, his kits are crap...not a personal attack...just an opinion on a product. He says he doesnt make any money off these kits so he's not a business either. Which in my opinion is crap too.

the Bu5ter one was a joke when i had a "this user is banned avatar"...he thought he'd be funny and actually ban me....hehe

click on the little 10% next to the word 'warn:' in your profile and all will be revealed.

[Revhead]

I'm not trying to be difficult but this probably isn't the most appropriate forum for this discussion, if you disagree with a warning it should probably be taken up with the person who warned you, via PM. If that doesn't help or you'd prefer not to contact them, perhaps try contacting Christian / PranK.

Just a suggestion

[Yawn]

Can someone let me know what I was warned for 30% for? This happened quite a while ago and I never gave it much thought thinking that it would disappear after a while.

Then now i realise that its permanent and I click on the 30% but it says 'no notes saved' or something along those lines and I never got a PM too.

why should i...the little maggot didn't afford me the courtesy of a PM.

Christian never replies to PM's so thats a dead end.
