How may official warnings do you have?

If you are unsure, go to the User CP tab. It will list all of your warnings.

Fly your flag…be proud…not ashamed.

I have one, from 2010.

Anybody know the poster with the most and still an active unbanned poster here?

I have one, from November 2014.

1 from June of 2014. It didn’t make any sense but I didn’t bother protesting it since I can’t imagine ever being banned.

Nada. None. Zip. Zilch. Zero.
I have the sudden urge to be bad. :cool:

Well, I must not have any since I couldn’t find any under the CP. That Dutch bastard Coldfire gave me one once and it was supposed to be for someone else! I think he later took it back.

Not a one!

One.

Warnings from before the mods started using the system won’t be in CP. There is this huge long thread that you used to have to post warnings in. And search if you needed to find out if the user had a bunch. And if the mod that issued it misspelled the user’s name in the post, it was like a get-out-of-jail-free card.

Zero, and I have been here since 2001. I keep waiting for the person that will piss me off enough to finally forget myself and make me earn my first warning. No one has, though some have come pretty darn close.

I got one. I knew I was going to get it but I took that yellow card anyway.

I can’t find any under User CP, but I think I do have one, although it may have been a sternly worded admonition, and not an Official Warning.

I forget exactly what it was for, but I do recall it was entirely called for, and entirely worth it.

Same here. July of 2012. Some OP said something stupid about Obama. I responded poorly.

One (plus one that was issued by mistake and withdrawn). It was for signing my posts “Regards, Shodan” while arguing with Shodan in a GD thread.

2, had 'em both coming.

I’ve got 3. This puts me in the lead for “most warnings yet not yet banned”.

  1. I told off Stranger in the Train, who was posting his usual tome of smart sounding text yet he was arguing against a basic principle of physics.
  2. I told off a poster who was shouting basically “down with Obamacare!” and yet he would not disclose his rough income level/age so that we can criticize him for being a hypocrite. (simple probability says the poster was probably either on medicare or someone who would qualify for the Obamacare subsidies, OR was super rich and thus didn’t need health insurance at all)
  3. I pointed out that large institutions emphasize “diversity” at a superficial level. Other posters later chimed in, proving me right - Harvard lets blacks in but the majority of them are *not *the presumed descendents of former slaves but are actually wealthy black foreigners from other countries. This means that if you walk around campus, it has the appearance of fairness, but in actuality is screwing over a chunk of the population.

Zero since March 1999. Benefits of clean living.

B4 P2P, I got several mod notes and a couple of warnings, a Pitting, an ATMB thread, and a bill for hotel room damages.

Since then, MBs don’t seem all that important in general anymore. So, I find it easy to simply log off for a day or 8 months. Not aware of any warnings since around '06 or so.

It’s understandable that you would think so, but as so often happens, your experience has led you to assume something is true, that certainly is not.

Here’s the actual reality, as far as I can know at present.

The user Control Panel will list the last 5 Infractions recieved. It’s shows them under a heading called Latest Infractions Received.

Warnings (which are not the same as Infractions) will not show there. However, a PM might say “you have received a warning” when it is actually an Infraction, so it will show up in the CP area for this. You may have had a warning in a thread, but they do not show up there, only Infractions show up.

If you have more than 5 only the latest 5 will appear. To see the others requires checking the PM folder, assuming you did not delete the PM announcing the Infraction.

Suspensions do not show up anywhere, no PM about it, or any other way to actually know when, and for how long a suspension was for. (so if you don’t log in while suspended, you will not even know it happened)

All that being said, since I have more than 5 Infractions now, I would have to look through all past PMs to find the number. Since I don’t really care, let’s just assume I have more Infractions than anyone still posting on the board.

I have no warnings or infractions. Just know now that if I ever get one it will be undeserved, but I’m not the kind to start a thread in ATMB to complain.

One. I don’t remember what for, though it wasn’t long ago. Personal attack type thing I think.
