Warning %

I have a warning % next to my username with 5 icons. I have had it since I became a member, but I don't know what it is or how to get rid of it. At present it is set at 0%, and I would appreciate any advice on how to get rid of it.

Hitting 0 is a good thing in this case. The rules of the board are there for all to read. If they are not taken to heart, then you might end up with a warning % that is higher than Juan Castro's BA.

Re: Warning %

You don't get rid of it.

You can only see yours [well you and staff] but other members can not see it.

As long as it's 0%, you've done nothing wrong.

Everyone has one and you can't get rid of it. It acts as a convenient and central way for us mods to reprimand actions against the rules of the board. 0% is a clean record, anything greater than 0% is not. Also, the system resets after a poster gets to 100%.

We don't automatically tie suspensions/bans to it (although they often result after warnings). It's simply a way for us mods to keep track of how often/severely a poster has violated the rules in the past.

Re: Warning %

Thank you for explaining it. I have had it since I became a new poster, and I didn't know what it meant.

Re: Warning %

I am glad I started this thread. It seems I was not the only member who didn't understand what it meant. Hopefully, this thread will help many more members.

Re: Warning %

I guess I am considered a General Nuisance Troll.

I wonder if that is in any way related to The Travelocity Roaming Gnome?

Re: Warning %

Mine hit 20% the day DanO traded for Womack. I was a little irate.
