mga707 7 Report post Posted January 22, 2013 What are they, why are they shown on my posts (even though apparently I have zero of them) and from what I can tell nobody else's posts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keep the Show on the Road! 34 Report post Posted January 22, 2013 OK, I'm warning you!! 3 Points... Joke! I have no idea what they are. How about "demerits." When I was a cub scout we got "demerits," and I think they went either "into your file," or onto your "permanent record." Or worse yet maybe they are like points on your driver's license or auto insurance. You get so many forum warning points and up go your rates, or you have to renew your driver's license every 6 months. I know for sure I don't went any of them there warning points!!

DennyG 5 Report post Posted January 22, 2013 Hey, I thought I was the only one with them. Actually, I believe everyone sees their own but not others'. I can't say whether or not the warning system is actually being used. That's a question for the admins. If it is not being used, it can be disabled. Apparently there is no way to have the system enabled and hide the counts although there are some discussions on the web suggesting that. The current arrangement prevents it being used for Double Secret Probation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mga707 7 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 Thank you Dave and Denny--it makes sense that only I can see my 'warning points' and cannot see anyone else's, Sure don't want them on my "Permanent Record" like that stuff from back in elementary school! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beckyrepp 7 Report post Posted January 24, 2013 Hi Everyone. The Bremers along with our moderators, especially Denny, do a good job at monitoring the forum for potential spam. So unless anyone thinks the 'warning points' would be useful, we'll try to figure out how to deactivate them. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
