It seems like it is considering i haven't been warned at all prior to my recent bans, so is the warning system gone?, or do the mods just have a list of people to "ban on sight"?

ATTENTION MODERATORS. My latest ban (14-day ban from Qbix89) is not legitimate, take a look for yourself. Please review this before considering me a "repeat offender". Thank you.

Moderators have to obviously be online to view the report queue.

this has absolutely nothing to do with the OP...

OT: its not broken. If you're ever lucky enough to be warned, it means you've still broken the rules. You could be immediately banned for your infraction and be given a quick 1 sentence citation and be gone for a week. The mod in question who issues a warning is either being lenient or doesn't think your offense is bad ENOUGH for a ban.

They don't have to warn you. The ninja(s) who banned you seemingly thought you didn't deserve to be let off with a warning and so bannned you.

There is no linear " Warning > Ban" or "Warning > Warning > Ban" system.

I'm just here to check the meters.

No, not to me. After a certain amount of warnings you've pretty much gotten to the point where a ban is appropriate because you should understand the rules by now.
I have received a few warnings and have now taken the time to read the rules and correct my mistakes.

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

The ninjas will only warn you so many times. If you have a lot of warnings on your ban record, they'll up the ante to bans. If you have lots of warnings and bans, then you'll only be banned for more and more time.

Also, depending on the violation, you might just be banned outright. Some things will be an automatic ban, no warning required.

So no, the warning system is not broken. PM me for details if you want or need further embellishment Dark.
