its a time bomb ticking until i get banned......before i get banned i would just like to thank the following:
Lol, that's not what the warning system will be about. It's only going to get used for very specific things, and by very specific people. No worries. And I know you're kidding, but I want to say it to everyone anyway. 99.9% of the people here will never even know it's there.
What it will do is allow the moderators to keep tabs on the more severe problem children. Say someone is making a mess of the recruiting forum, and gets a warning from Bucknutty. And a couple weeks later goes into the political forum and gets warnings from Prof and Strength. They'll be able to see that this person had the same issues elsewhere, and see how and when they were warned for it. A few days later, he's making the same mess in the general forum, and a mod there who doesn't visit either Political or Recruiting was just going to warn him since he didn't know the poster has been a mess elsewhere. But given the history, this warning puts the user in question over the top, and the mod (who doesn't have the *individual* ability to ban) puts the user over the top on warning points, and a 3-day ban is automatically laid down. I'm made aware at that time, and can track any more warnings the user gets when he/she returns. If the problems continue, I can decide to place a longer ban, or a permanent removal.

And I need to continue troubleshooting the "office filter" so, **** ****.

And again, to see if the issue isn't the hack, but rather my MSIE cache... **** ****.

It's not the local cache, is it the master setting? Fuck shit.

One more time and I know it's something in the code relating to string replacement... Fuck shit.
