If your on Warning Level 6 does that mean you did 6 things wrong?

Hows it work?

I think it works like those warnings at AIM. they go up 6 at a time maybe ? or a bit more.. so if u get alot of warnings about 50-75% u get disconnected from AIM. i never got them there (dont wanna get them here too ) .. just from what i heard

I don't quite see how having a warning level benefits anyone... If anything it would discredit a host if someone was doing research here on one.

BC explains the point system of the warning level in this thread:

Well, if they deserve to be discredited then that what they get. That is why this system is in place.

The warning level system also allows them to set a variable to your username and thus using that variable, they can control where you post etc. So if you get a warning level of "X", then you can't post into the ad forums.

I personally think it should be displayed in the left hand side of the page, just under your username and number of posts etc...

It isn't a Yay thing. It is a point system that keeps tabs on members and violations of the forum guidelines. After a certain amount of points, the system will ban the user. So no, it isn't supposed to scare anyone, it will simply ban them eventually if the behavior continues.

All I did was call someone gay. :-p Cuz he posted a very POINTLESS and unhelpful post in my topic. And that's how I got my 6 warning points.

Sup Chicken? Well can't you treat users equaly? That guy wasn't being great either, oh and you stick wit his side, great moderating. Personall, I think the whole warning system is pathetic... Trying to find more ways to scare off users cuz they call someone gay, lol.

Not here. Software piracy has always been frowned upon around these parts.
If you want help with software; buy it first.

I hate it when people using the term "gay" to descibed something. I never can tell if they are actually insulting something , or what that might be if they are. In other words if you called a person gay, you might just be be insulting gay people. Then again, you might just be saying the person is happy. I don't know. The dictionary doesn't say gay = stupid.

It reminds me of the unimaginative losers on the CB radio. When they get mad at people, they call the males ******s and the females sluts, even though they don't know these people. How rude.

Software piracy has always been frowned upon around these parts. So I've noticed. :rolleyes:

No one asked for that, hmm uneeded post. You'd have to be pretty unnormal to not able figure out how someone is using gay against someone. :D

But in the long run I don't care about anyone here...... (except the ppl who feel me, otherwise..... HAHA)

Bit of topic.

I just read the closed thread and noticed that pirated Photoshop stopped working right after windows update. I wonder if this has to do with DRM section added to Microsoft EULA that lets them disable any not legitimate software on your system.

I hope it does. I would love to see Microsoft finaly stop the piracy. I would love to see what happens with their user base after that,

It delays the send button. So if you get 75% it takes longer before you can push the send button ;)

Your posting contained enough evidence to justify my response, in that your copy of Photoshop is illegitimate. If you need confirmation of my statement, you can visit the Adobe Photoshop forum at http://www.adobe.com/support/forums/main.html and read all about it there.

Instead of playing low key, you chose to act like a total ass and call me names, then whine and bitch about your closed thread. That's how immature you are. Also, since according to your own admission in another thread about Paypal and credit cards, you "can't wait until you turn 18". Makes me wonder if your web hosting customers know that they are dealing with another Timmah.

Also, I don't think Chicken was being biased in his comments; and you can ask him in the past when I was too quick with the Submit button and did not use my brain first, how fast I was banned. So drop it because you're only hurting your image and that of your passtime business.

Some words of advice. One you just made a total fool out of yourself by starting this thread. Two, telling poeple on a public forum of over 22,000 users that you pirate software, probly wasn't the best idea. If me or someone else on this board who hated software pirators (I'm a programmer if it was my work would I want it stolen? Hell no), we could just contact your ISP and notify them. I'm sure they'd love to hear. Starting this thread showed really how immature/ignorant you are. Directly insulting someone who is in a higher authority than you (IE chicken is a Mod here FYI), isn't a very good idea. It kind of makes me wonder what kind of a company you run. Well enough ranting for now, go get a dose of reality then come back please.

I don't care if you don't want my 2 cents. Like I said, I could just go talk to my "friend" aka adobe rep and see what he has to say. I don't care if you didn't ask for my advice you got it. Thats whats kewl about a public forum, you can basicly say anything you want (within the limits).
