The Forum Guidelines have been updated to reflect the new platform's Warning System.
Warnings are given when posts and/or behavior are considered unacceptable and/or inappropriate. A warning can consist of one or more points and can have an indefinite expiration date. If a user reaches four or more points (before any warnings expire), they will be temporarily banned. Warnings, along with their points and expiration dates, are decided by the moderators as a team — not as individuals.
When a member is issued a warning, they will receive an alert and/or PM (Conversation) with an explanation. They can also see their warnings in their individual member tab.
The warning system was implemented to help members understand the Guidelines — not to punish. As the Terms of Service states: “We may remove or modify any Content submitted at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice. We may terminate your access to all or any part of the Service at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice.”
