I simply asked why I was warned.  I could care less that I was...it's not like I go out of my way to talk shit, if you look at my posts they are generally constructive and helpful.

If you wanted to ask about why you were warned you'd have PMd an admin/mod about it.
You made a drama thread, and it went wrong. Deal with it.

You could have not used a PM?

I tried to reply to the message (but there's nothing to reply to), I didn't know who to go to with it. I  thought about meow, but he deals with enough shit already.  Should I just have randomly picked a mod or dev to pm?  The only moderator that I know if that is somewhat active is jacko.

The thread was made to ask if you could change your policy when warning people.  I didn't think someone would look up my warning and link me the post that got me warned.  And as I've said multiple times, I really don't even care that I was warned since I'm generally a constructive poster with a good reputation.

I didn't make a drama thread, and I don't see how it went wrong.  I didn't expect any dev's to white knight and admit that it would be a nice thing to do if you're warning someone for a post that's over a month old (or deleted possibly) to let them know what you posted or a link to the post.

I'm sure you know, but there's about 100 suggestions floating around to make c-rpg and strategus better.  A lot of really good suggestions.

One that comes to mind about c-rpg is making the battle servers spawn MOTF every round so that it doesn't draw.  I'm sure that's a bat shit crazy idea that will never take hold because you're busy making pretty armor and trolling people on the forums.

Somehow this turned from a "why did I get a warning" to "IMPLEMENT MOTF ON BATTLE SERVERS ERRY ROUND"?
Meaning lies as much
in the mind of the reader
as in the Haiku.

People talking shit because I brought up a  common sense suggestion.  I don't recall asking for anyone to explain why i was warned, I recall saying I don't know why i was warned, and there was no link to the post that I'm being warned about.  So basically it's a useless warning. 

Then I was trolled and talk shit to by admins, so I figured maybe I'd poke back a little.

You made a drama thread, and it went wrong. Deal with it.

And I did that and meow said, "I don't know." What happens when you get warned and someone of power(IE meow) says that. I wish it'd show who it was that did it, so you can at least then say respond privately. I think that is what Huseby is asking for.

If it makes you feel better, I got 1 warning i shouldn't have on ban spam even though it wasn't spam.

Precisely...I figured I'd bring it up because I had no idea who to turn to.  I'm not even concerned with finding the post I was warned about, it would just be nice to know what got me warned.

But I 100% expected admins and dev's to come in here and talk shit and not actually comprehend what I was typing.  Skim through, see something to get defensive about, dismiss any valid points, and troll away.

Hence me following the thread derail and pointing out other flaws while I'm at it.

He knows who warned you, so ask him that and you'll know who to talk with.

I meant admin powers, but I misunderstood your post.

Rules and Guidelines (Please Read This Before Posting)

Now, may I ask how many of you people have read that in full?

I am rather curious.

I don't think I could have possibly made the title any more clear, or put it in any more of an obvious place.

Read the last bullet point of the first list, it is a really nice one.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

I didn't, because I follow common sense (and information is ridiculously spread out in different areas).  Apparently I didn't follow the rule one time (who knows when or how or what) and was warned for it.  I'm not one who gets warned very often so I really don't mind the warning.  But if you want someone to learn from a mistake, it's generally advisable to inform them of what mistake was made.

If you'd rather pile more workload onto Meow, then continue not letting people know what post they're being warned about.  One click, a ctrl+c, and then a ctrl+v is more work than having one of your admins researching why someone was warned?  Seems on par for the common sense displayed.

I don't ever recall going off topic or opining in the ban section, hence my confusion, and request that future warnings get a clarification (maybe a link to their post, or the thread).  I'm sure the user can figure the rest out from there. 

But it's c-rpg, if the players aren't trolling the dev's and admins are.

Common sense says read official stickied notifications that say "read this first."

Sorry for being so irked but it is ridiculous how many people don't read a very straight forward topic, and then yell when they get warned for it.

It is not just your actions, but the actions of many that caused this massive warning spree, and for good measure might I add.

The NA crowd needs to finally realize that if you don't have something directly case related and are a witness, you should stay the hell out of the Ban section so the Admins can do their jobs easier. Eu has the odd person posting occasionally in their Ban section, it is to be expected, but NA is an absolute circus and needs to be merrily muted until the point is taken to shut the hell up and stay out of the ban section.

There's stickies in every single forum section.  There's rule sections in every forum section.  Ignorance isn't an excuse, but cluttered information, and information spread out in multiple areas (not to mention stickies that probably shouldn't be and things that should be stickied and aren't) certainly don't help for flow of information. 

And I have read the rules in the ban section because it's stickied and huge everywhere you go (as far as I recall). 

But if you'd rather have people bug Meow, and then have Meow do research instead of copy/paste, I can't say I'd be surprised.
