Ron DeSantis Set To Jump Into 2024 Presidential Campaign

*continues w/humorous deadpan* Santa better watch it; while he's away me and @Wessel might go to town on Mrs. Claus. ;) :LOL:
 
And you aren't, you're my enemy :)

Personally I don't like creating enemies, especially over silly reasons like this:

You said that google is my friend.

Also didn't you warn me earlier? :p

Warnings are simply a reminder of the what the rules are. People take things like this way to seriously.

I think it was the automated message that scared me lol
This does not follow our rules. Your message may have been removed or altered.

Hmm I'll have the change the wording in that. Thats what the software programmed in there by default. The line "Your account's access may be limited based on these actions. Please keep this in mind when posting or using our site." doesn't need to be in there since it doesn't apply here.
 
Yeah I think it would be wise to have tailored wording to state the sanction applied, if any, to the account or whether the warning is not followed by any sanction but is just a reminder of the rules... for the sake of clarity. Of course each case differs @Nebulous :)

Yeah I just removed that line from the warning text.

For XF forums, go into ACP, then 'phrases' and search for:

warning_conv_text.1
warning_conv_text.2
warning_conv_text.3
warning_conv_text.4
 
Oh right, I've never needed to use formal warnings. I just use verbal warnings - sometimes friendly wording, sometimes sterner wording. :p

Same here (personally), but you have other staff members there who might decide to handle a situation differently. :shrug:

I think we all have the same mindset at the site I co-admin haha - in fact, the site owner thinks I can be too blunt. Blunt = to the point without getting personal. Idk though, when someone repeatedly makes the same mistake especially after laughing at a warning, it's no longer a mistake, it's a decision.
 
I know most of your co-staff pretty well and I'm thinking you're not all on the same page, but thats all I'll say about that. :run:
You’re correct, there has been disagreements I won’t discuss of course.
But that doesn’t relate to the warn button so you’re going off topic here :)
