    What are infractions?
    Infractions are used as a mechanism to track violation of rules/guidelines by users.

    Individually, an infraction doesn't do much of anything (unless it's a severe infraction), but if a user continues to accrue infractions within a certain timeframe, their account can be temporarily suspended.
    How many infractions lead to ban?
    Any account with infractions worth 10 points will be disabled/banned.

    Do you resolve disputes between members?
    We do not have the time (or desire) to babysit members. If there is anyone that you don't get along with, you can choose to ignore them under your Buddy / Ignore Lists. Please don't ask to have a member banned simply because you don't get along with them. There are plenty of members that the administrators wouldn't consider friends, but it's not our job to silence members that we don't agree.

    They should call it " n00bs start here "

    It would save a whole lot of repeat threads

    Nice Job!

    That IMO is not a bad idea at all, since quite a few newbies start threads in General Chat where the answer is right on this thread. ;)
