No warnings issued before then – just reminders, with the second one being more sternly stated than the first, since **Rigmarole** had already ignored one note. When **JThunder** ignored _both_ instructions, **Czarcasm** got fed up and finally issued a warning. Makes sense to me. A three-strikes-and-you’re-out sorta deal.

By why should it need multiple instructions?

If things have gotten bad enough, in an IMHO thread, that a moderator feels the need to come in and say:

> [@is there a conservative version of SDMB?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-there-a-conservative-version-of-sdmb/536875/21):
>
> To the rest: The OP is looking for a conservative board along the lines of the SDMB. Please stay on topic.

then shouldn’t that be enough? Is there a rule that i missed somewhere that allows you to ignore the first moderator instruction, and not the second one?
