Warnings
My suggestion is simple, when a moderator sends a warning they must include their WHT name.

Why? If you have an issue with a warning, you open a helpdesk ticket, not contact the mod directly. I am sure the mod that gives you the warning is recorded in the backend.

I'd still like to know who is warning me personally. Some mods hold grudges so I'd like to see who is warning me and see if it is one person so I can point this out to someone else.

Some mods hold grudges.... hope you can back that up with facts...
Mate, wear it, open a helpdesk ticket if you must, but most of all move on. Warning points will fade in time.....Brad Baker

That dosen't make it right....where do you come up with this. It is the responsibility of any online company to listen to their consumers. If gmail crapped over its consumers there wouldn't be a gmail.

I've gotten three warnings, from three different mods, all of them were mistakes . They're pretty good about fixing mistakes when they make them, nothing to worry about.

Mods are recorded on the backend. If someone is holding a grudge, SWR will lay thw smackdown with his old wrinkled hand.

It's interesting to note that most people who want this 'accountability' is someone who is/has been banned/warned. Bitter much?

Life isn't fair or equal, so lets not waste time quibbling over unimportant matters...
BTW Good job iNET for this great WHT medium, and thanks to the mods that offer their time for free to moderate this board. Without them (iNET and mods) WHT as we know it would be completely different.Brad Baker

If you really think something is being done unfair, contact a Liason, Guide, etc.
If their appears to be an issue, we'll let iNet know.

Getting warned by WHT is equivelent to being fined by the police.
I do hope I explained that so everybody can grasp the difference.
Yes I too would take the warning any day however it basically isn't a warning it is a fine with penalties inposed. Why can't WHT give warning on some occasions and if the member has erred by accident why can't a simple appology be acceptable. Even with police there is occasions were warnings and appologies are acceptable unless of course you live in a dictatorship.

There's also the possibility of using email or PM, but the advantage of using the warning system to do it is that it creates a record that the user was warned for that issue, in case it comes up again.
By the way, even in a dictatorship the police can let you off with just a warning... but I suppose that comment was just a way to add a little drama.Specializing in SEO and PPC management.
