Thread: Infractions

    Default Infractions

    Thanks to su_admin, the infractions mechanism of our forum is now in place. This won't affect 99.9% of you but because some like to ignore the rules and/or are rebellious by nature, we needed this mechanism to keep track of repeat offenders. We now have a 3 strikes your out policy. When you receive 3 infractions, you will be banned from the forum. This does not mean you can't be banned when you have less than 3 infractions. If you are combative and/or causing trouble in other ways, you still risk banishment before the 3 infractions limit.

    Can we assume we get notified for each infraction so as to be able to correct the infractioned behavior before banishment commences?

    I made up "infractioned" for the awesomeness that in commands. Sometimes I amaze myself. I'm easily entertained also.

    I was notified and was surprised that we had an infraction system. Now I know that I have 2 left for a strike. Good system at least you get a warning.

    OK, I'm a little confused. Warning = one strike? Or is it just infractions that equal a strike? Is this just now going into affect or is it retroactive?

    Sorry, just need some clarification.

    No problem with clarification Mark. It is not retroactive. It started yesterday. With regard to warnings, the infractions themselves are the warning.

    The notification happens at the time of the infraction.

    So, if I am understanding this correctly, the more infractioness you are, the closer you get to becoming a banishee.

    Hey, I can make up words too! LOL!

    Apparently you didn't make it up. I found it in the "Wiktionary".

    This thread is funny!! I fully understand the new policy but this made me laugh.

    Mark, you are a riot. I'm still waiting for Rick to chime in. He usually has good one or two liners.

    Tom, your responses are very amusing.

    How many can you foul off? I've seen guys thrown 10 strikes and foul 8 off and they are still alive at the plate.

    So I ask again, how many can you foul off.

    Is there going to be an infraction display count like our post counts so we can see what our infraction counts are?
