Does it really work? It's not working because I got warned last month and supposedly "1 point is taken away every month". What's up with the points? I didn't get points deducted...

Its not at the start of every month. You must be a good poster and earn your deduction every month. If you piss them off, it wont go down.


Wrong forum.

moved.


Warnings work like this:
You flame me
You get 3 points from some moderator
You go away a little depressed
The next day you post whore like crazy
You get another point (total now 4).


You're "good" (not warned) for 1 full month

Your point total is decreased by 1 (total now 3).

2 weeks go by and you flame me again - getting warned for 3 points (total now 6).

2 more weeks go by - nothing happens (total 6 points).

1 full month since your last warning has passed - another point goes away (total becomes 5)

Then another 2 months go by - you get no points (total drops to 3).

<wash rinse repeat>

If your point total ever hit's 9 - you're banned.

Any reason for not having a "good samaritan" thing going here?

What, people being nice so they lose points?

Flame for a month, be nice for a month. Flame for a month, be nice for a month. No thanks.

And OP, you didn't lose a point because you didn't survive a month without being warned. You were warned on February 25th. Then today. Not quite a month. In fact, all of your points have been received in just over a month (two days over).

So maybe you shouldn't postwhore so much. Then you'll lose your points over time.

At a point total of nine you are permenantly banned, yes? How is that done anyways? Is it by IP or just screenname?

I think it's by username, unless Nanashi has an IP scrambler.

Your username. If you come back, we ban you. IP ban if necessary. And yes, we can tell that it's you.

have you guys ever discussed moving the amount down? i'd honestly like to see the system moved to like 5-7 points. or at least setting the system down to 5 for beginners. this way, if someone is coming in here just to whore, they get banned sooner. sure, they should get an equal chance, but if theyre joining just to make trouble, they shouldnt be given an equal chance.

They can only post a limited amount of times, which in turn reduces spamming.

If they're joining to just make trouble, then being banned in 2 offenses (2x3=6) isn't much different than being banned in 3 (3x3=9).

It's variable based on the severity of the offense.

Yeah, I didn't mention that, but that's because if someone is clearly here just to cause trouble I have no problem dropping the hammer.

It's not exactly as if people get banned for reading the forums. They get banned for posting stupid poopy on the forums.
