General warning notification

[Peter1469]

Based on member input, moderation is going to make a new effort to do less policing of the forum and rely more on member reports. If we act on a report, it will be done as consistently as possible and address not just the member behavior but also the history of behavior. If we don't take action, we will try where needed to PM back an explanation why. We do participate as members, so when we do find problems, instead of immediately issuing infractions, we will post general warnings which if ignored will result in infractions. In order to make warnings more visible we will add a prefix to warned threads.

I am not a reporting type person but I get reported often. I am going to begin reporting myself

That might trigger seizures.

If it's too flashy, let us know, we can change it.

[Dr. Who]

That might trigger seizures.

Well, when they recover from the seizures, they won't be able to say they didn't know there were warnings.

The moderators we have now are the best weve ever had in my opinion. Yes, even chris I have to grudgingly admit is doing a good job this time around. Its not easy to be a mod on any forum, this one seems to be particularly tough because the mods participate in the conversations more. Which Im not insinuating is a bad thing at all.

Like my Father always says, if the Job is easy, everyone would be doing it ... have a Cookie and get back to work.
