I see this on every post. What is it?
 | View Full Version : Warning level Aussie Bob 11-02-2002, 12:05 AM lol. We posted the same kind of thread at the same time. hehe. :D ckpeter 11-02-2002, 12:08 AM My guess is that this is the response to some of the craps that webhostingtalk.com has received. It is also my guess that if enough members report a certain post, its warning level will increases. Hopefully Headsurfer can clarify this for us.

Peter I'd say it also has something to do with banning certian folks from posting in certian forums [request forum etc]. By setting a variable to their username, you can control where they can and cannot post. :D SoftWareRevue 11-02-2002, 12:21 AM I'm warnin' ya. :mad: It adds a little mystery to an already confuddling conundrom. Aussie Bob 11-02-2002, 01:12 AM This warning system was obviously bought in because of trouble makers like SoftwareRevue. Spoiled it for all of us. ;) :stickout: :D SoftWareRevue 11-02-2002, 01:27 AM If I knew what it was about, I'd surely argue against it. net-trend 11-02-2002, 02:05 AM It's probably a scare tactic. Andrew 11-02-2002, 02:34 AM Yeah, it's scawwy!! :crying: richy 11-02-2002, 06:56 AM when ya get to 5 do they bring out bubbah :) Chicken 11-02-2002, 03:12 PM It is something that is coming soon, not up yet. Will have info once it is going. Darth 11-02-2002, 05:34 PM Get rid of it! stop trying to change WHT! :bawling: Chicken 11-02-2002, 05:47 PM It is for the moderators really, not a big change as far as members are concerned. The Prohacker 11-02-2002, 06:18 PM Originally posted by Chicken It is for the moderators really, not a big change as far as members are concerned. Then why not make a conditional so only mods see it :D Or better yet, have it unseen to members until it actually gets to one or above.. So if a user has no warnings, it doesn't show up.. :D richy 11-02-2002, 06:32 PM nah it would be useful for people to see the reputation of people making comments. similar to the way you take post count into consideration in certain circumstances. tabizan 11-02-2002, 06:35 PM Can I be the first to have a warning level , please ? I've only been here a hour and I've broken the rules already .... http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=85939 , That makes me a hellraiser , doesn't it ? JayC 11-04-2002, 01:43 PM Originally posted by tabizan Can I be the first to have a warning level , please ? Too late. I just noticed that Chicken is already at Warning Level 2. XTStrike 11-04-2002, 03:08 PM im not gonna confirm it yet, because there will probably be a nice big message going around, but... Let the warnings commence... :D new rule will be added shortly "Moderators can warn members at their own discression" bwahahahaha Darth 11-04-2002, 03:34 PM heh, *has seen the feature* :D headsurfer 11-04-2002, 04:35 PM The Warn system was suggested by a couple of teh moderators. Once we have it all going and working as proposed, one of the moderators will make an announcement about how it will all work. It should allow the mods to keep an easier eye on things and also be easier to find trouble with everyone looking out for it. Robert OzyWebHost 11-04-2002, 04:53 PM Eek:eek: Mine says '0'....Have I run out of warnings???:stickout: GraphxGirl 11-04-2002, 05:05 PM What's the problem, Prohacker? Afraid you might be warned? :D :D :D Originally posted by The Prohacker Then why not make a conditional so only mods see it :D Or better yet, have it unseen to members until it actually gets to one or above.. So if a user has no warnings, it doesn't show up.. :D The Prohacker 11-04-2002, 05:49 PM Originally posted by GraphxGirl What's the problem, Prohacker? Afraid you might be warned? :D :D :D Oh I'm sure I will be... But... As I always say, its always better to be warned than ignored... Which of course I don't do... :) silock 11-04-2002, 08:04 PM hug me i'm scared! mindboggle 11-05-2002, 11:22 AM Lol, this guy already has a warning level of 5: http://webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=86455 I guess he got it for posting that in the wrong forum the first time. Chicken 11-06-2002, 12:16 AM The basic gist is that there are various violations, each given a warning 'weight' so to speak. Multiple violations will auto-ban members, and it will depend on exactly what the violation was. So 5 points isn't five warnings necessarily, it could be one violation worth 5 points. The Dude 11-06-2002, 05:04 PM A good way to keep trouble makers 'IN LINE' so to speak.... I think its a good idea :) The Dude :P) |
