    Infractions are the new warnings. However, these warnings expire after 7 days unlike the old warnings that never did. At 1 infraction, nothing happens to your account. You should receive a warning regarding the infraction. Once you have 2 on your account ( If you keep breaking rules within that 7 day period ) your account is moved into the Probation usergroup with less access on the forums than normal members until the infractions go away. If for some reason they keep being an ass on the forums and they hit a 3rd infraction, bye bye account.

    Although, just because the typical warnings expire after 7 days, just be warned that we can set them to never expire, so if you overly screw up, don't expect us to forget about it after a week. And, we can also set the number of "points" that you get per infraction, so it doesn't 'have' to be 3 infractions = ban. If your offense is severe enough, one will suffice.

    Click on your name to go your profile then there should be a tab called "Infractions".

    Yes.

    Can you do the following (if you can) to see if there is a Infraction tab.

    Dont give test infractions. They will remain forever in his profiles, even if u reverse them :P

    Infractions can be completely customizable. Right now we have the defaults only and a couple rules about them. That will change in the near future.

    Infractions can go from a simple warning which means pretty much nothing, to a real infraction which gives you points. 3 points equals a temp ban for a couple days. 2 points equals probation which will shrink your inbox, no signature for u and other annoying restrictions so u behave.

    All points stack, so if u have 1, the next 1 will mean probation. Points have expiration dates so if u got 2 in different dates and 1 point expires, u will get out of Probation but will remain with 1 point til it expires.

    No more stupid warnings that mean nothing. Also, a mod could simply ignore all the infractions and simply ban you, but that should be the last resort.
