Well it's possible because the person who made the oopsie posted a thread in the moderator board. I could take down the warnings (except my own derp), but I'm not exactly sure how many people got those warnings and who they are. Could be that I'd only mess it up more :D.
Correct me if I'm wrong, as it has been a while since I've dealt with the moderation aspect of these forums, but in the Mod tab you should be able to view all warnings and display them from newest to oldest and on the left should be the name, middle should be the warning level, and right should be the reason given "Diplomacy section misuse" and in this case you should be able simply remove every instance of those issued yesterday =P, this would leave little room for error as you will know exactly who received those warnings and when due to the time-stamp.
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.

Start a poll in general discussion about it and I'll look at the results, a King must look after his people after all  :wink:

Can anyone explain to me what good warning someone without telling them what they're being warned for does? As far as I can tell, it just looks like a random slap on the wrist.

I always know why I've been warned.

I have gotten one warning in the past.
Posted a link to a torrent at the piratebay..... :oops:

It is a tried and true method of keeping peope in line.
Semi-randomly warning and banning people for slight infractions the same way as large ones.

Admining NKVD-style ,brutal and effective.. just ask Stalin ,badmin no1.

Wonder if the local fools and trolls get warnings.... should be a warningcounter next to infamy so we could keep track :)

It was me, and it was just a mistake. I waltzed into the wrong board and forgot where I was.

Warning levels have been fixed, disregard warnings. (but don't forget the rules when you do post in the diplomacy section!)

On the bright side, I've learned to triple-check what I'm doing as a forum mod, and that linking the outstanding post in question is a good policy.

It seems that some people are outside the rules. Of course I broke board rules, but imho screen fit to topic. It's interesting how The Melee Gaming Team recognizes some pictures to be justified and some not.

The goal of Strategus battles shouldnt be to deprive your enemies of players, but to have full roster both sides and have the gear/tactics/strategy win the day rather than lack of merc support.

I just got a warning today too! Check out my New Green Watch!

Apparently posting a Black and White gif of an alien with a long dingaling (it looks like a tail, it was THAT LONG) chasing someone in the Diplomacy forum is enough to put me on a watch list. I hope whoever gets the privilege of watching my posts enjoys a good laugh here and there.

But another thing is, I wish there was an expiration or an idea you had of when my New Green Watch will go away.

I don't see your warning level  :rolleyes: it must be something in forum settings.

The truth of it is that up until now it seems as though nobody has bothered to enforce the rules on Diplomacy. There are posts that have yet to be gone over.

But another thing is, I wish there was an expiration or an idea you had of when my New Green Watch will go away.

Watch level will automatically go down by 2 percent per day.

I think I've never posted to the diplomacy board. Good reminder for the diplomacy section rules though! Didn't even remember it had special ones like the ban section. I sure remember now! :mrgreen:.
