    I'm just curious, what is Profile Infraction?
    I got 5 points just for that... and also, can a mod help figure out what was the last infraction that got me banned?

    Thanks..

    Profile infraction isn't related to a specific post.

    ie, When you PM spam someone.

    And next time try searching before starting a thread like this.

    I also got profile infraction and I am also curious to know about it, by your first line it is clear that this is something which is not related to some specific post but I didn't get "PM Spam" - could you plz. explain it in detail.

    I was given a warning of that.

    but I guess infractions need a specific post.

    How do mods give infraction in that case?

    yeah - that's right a mod will check that post (reported by someone) and if bump then it will be deleted from your thread and you will be given an infraction or if the mod is kind enough than you might just get a warning or so..

    ahhhhhhhhh

    Profile warning are for spam PMs, NOT POSTS

    So, do they see any infraction button for that or whatsoever?

    private infractions indicate the post has been deleted

    profile infractions indicate that there is no specific thread related to the problem - it may private messaging or it may be that you've made 100 cut-and-paste posts in the intro section and none anywhere else.

    Oh u can give hell to user via vb if u want even when they do not post. I do that to the stupid bots that signup and run away after posting their links. :p

    But yaa bottomline infractions can be done via various methods.

    I can. But I am talking about Infractions which I've found so far to be given only through posts.

    Can someone clarify me?
