REJECTED get rid of warn points

The warn system comes standard with MyBB, although there are plugins you can install to modify it, and admins who don't want to use it don't have to use it.

The new warn system is much more similar to a strike-based system, since the warn points scale is much smaller (0-10).

It's very rare that people accumulate enough warn points to get suspended - that's only happened a handful of times since The Split. The warn system isn't particularly complicated, but if you're having trouble understanding it, I'd recommend not doing things that might get you warned. It's hard to get banned on MFGG, and in the post-Split era, the only people who maxed out their warn points were frequently and willfully breaking the rules - which would get you banned even if we scrapped the warn system.

Some rules get different priorities because some forms of behavior are more harmful to the community than others. It's the same reason that most societies impose different penalties for murder and jaywalking. In the case of MFGG, some things warrant bigger warnings than others - severe flaming and harassment of other members or posting sexually graphic material is a lot more harmful to the community than bumping old topics without a good reason.

Course clear! You got a card.
