Wouldn't it have been easier, and just as good, to simply PM the alleged wrong-doers??
That was how we handled it in the past, since the board comes with the Warning software built in it was decided to utilise it. When a thread is moved, closed, edited or deleted the Mod or Admin who takes the action would send a PM anyway.

The problem with the PM's is that with all the Admin & Mods the member in question tends to get way with more than needed because of a lack of communication. The warn allows all Admin and Mods see the record of the member in question with problems in the past.

How? we still look at each post as soon as we see it and check the content. All the warning system does is facilitate easier communication between mods and admins by allowing us to see what a person has been warned about in the past and allow us to make a judgment call as to wehter the person is a repeat offender. Would you prefer it if you couldnt see the warn indicator?

@nichotin: imho; No posts should ever be deleted. Editing spelling is ok but apart from that I think we should stand for what we are saying.
We have had this discussion (twice, I think) before and then it ended up with some kind of decision that leave it as is, ie editing is possible, deleting is not. Then of course you can edit your post into something totally different from what you wrote in the first place. But, what is that except of showing of as a coward? Then some posts might very well be deleted in certain topics, but then again, they don't do any harm really staying there.
A topic close to this is this: What I think we really need is a "Thank you"-robot, a good way to show appreciation withou having to spend space and bandwidth for a whole post.
regards!

UPDATE F.Y.I. - I understand that things have changed. You will nolonger be able to see your WARN LEVEL. Only the crew ADMIN & MODS will see your level 0% - 90%.
