The forum’s warning system is represented by a blue bar that appears on each member’s profile as well as all of their posts. If an offense(s) is committed, the bar will begin to fill. Once it’s filled all the way, a permanent ban will take place.
There are no set amounts of infractions given for each offense, as each time a rule is broken, the way it’s broken is unique.
For example, one user will use offensive language, will receive a number of infractions, but another user will use offensive language and will receive more infractions. This is because each offense is unique, and the severity always differs.
Proceeding numbers of infractions leads to loss of forum privileges.
25 infractions = 7 day suspension
50 infractions = 14 day suspension
75 infractions = 21 day suspension
100 infractions = Permanent Ban
Infractions do not expire. Once a user receives them, they remain on their account for good.
