WARN in lower right corner of avatars

[monkeylove]

There is no warning at all on my end. I wouldn't even know anything was sent.

 

[GregManning]

I would not either; you'd have to check & let me know.

I really don't know how this is supposed to work.

I will delete your warnings, since they are obviously inappropriate.

not inappropriate, hilarious. just read this whole thread and laughed my balls off for like ten minutes. body language...HA

I disagree. I think its purpose is to allow the membership to get a warning to the moderators about another member who is badly misbehaving. The moderators cannot be expected to read every thread or post in the forum, so the "Warn" button would provide an easy, quick way for members to communicate an objection.

This is all just speculation on my part. I'd be interested to see if the warning about monkeylove made its way to the moderators, as I suspect it should have.

The 'Report' link should open a window where you can send a message to the moderators and it shows up in a 'moderator only' forum that the rest of us can't see. I do believe from that point what we are discussing here is an act for the moderators to perform since it could result in a member being banned for short or long terms.

Here's more information on Xenforo warnings.

The "Reports" pop up for the Admin/Staff/Moderators automatically.
They are then 1) Left as is; 2) Approved; 3) Assigned to Someone; 4) etc.

I would have no way of seeing these "Warnings", if I were not alerted by someone else.
I'd have to go into every profile, see the warning posted, open it, review who sent it, etc.

As noted above, the TB Staff does not, & cannot, read every post.

If there is an issue, "Report" it. Then the alert is automatic.

Is there a way that I can view these warnings that are posted to me?

 

[GregManning]

Here's what I can do:

Click on your name in the above post.
oldoakman profile summary comes up.
Warning Points: X

Currently you have none.

I sent another e-mail to Mark for him to Re-Review this situation.

UpDate:

per Mark & Claudio (Admin):
"The Warn button should be available for admins and mods only, not users.
I don't know why it was enable for registered members in your forum but I've disabled it for them."

Again, anyone with inappropriate Warnings, let me know & I will look into it.

Ciao for Now !

I've been warned for foul language before I'm a work in progress

 

[easyphloem]

I think the writing is on the wall.

I should be granted ADMIN status, and I will clear all of this up.
