At first i also thought that.
And i also thought Napalm would go first.
but DOI is awesome :3

That was fun.

OK, this is just going way into Disproportionate Retribution territory. 75% warning for swearing and nothing else? Really?

[NFX]

Freeziez, are you sure your weapons don't go through each other? Even so, 1mm Titanium isn't that much to get through, which may be why you got him pretty much into the red with one or two hits. =]

To be fair, I'd like to note there is like 4-5 other people that have that same warning level. ACAMS came down hard on swearing.

I thought he only did that when people praised Obama?
 
Anyway, I think it's ridiculous.  I've seen people do far more serious things, and only get 5% for it. Sometimes, I get the feeling he wants to get rid of me for whatever reason.

Did you censor?

I didn't get warned for saying 'F off', although to some people (Me included) F off has little connection to [Censored] off, despite the obvious shared origins. Whatever.

[NFX]

Censorship is a tricky one for me, personally. Because it's not the words that do the damage, but rather the sentiment that society has decided must be attached to the words. I don't swear too often myself, but when I do, I'd rather it wasn't censored. It's really just a random word, it doesn't harm anyone unless they allow it to.

I heard some people asking why they had 75% warning, Acams, or a moderator, I can't recall which one, informed them 'swearing is a major offense when done in the main forum area's.

So its not personal.

So in the Junkyard (Where I mainly post) it's OK?

[NFX]

Not sure, but I wouldn't take any chances.

Although acting like an arrogant troll being deemed better than swearing...not trying to cause an argument, but I can't quite see the balance there.

I just meant in general, I wasn't naming any names. Just explaining why I think a 25% warn for one use of expletives is a bit strong.

Actually, it's 50% more for me.

[Badger]

IMHO, 5% would be most suited, but that's ACAMS's choice.

IMO, trolls should be banned for a week for bad trolling. =P

[NFX]

I think 50% is overkill, personally. The system is definitely good, but I think the scale of warn needs to be adjusted, personally.

Like this?

[NFX]

Something along those lines. We definitely need some solid rules about what is warnworthy and how much it warrants. Still, I don't think one instance of swearing is nearly as bad as a string of trolling posts.
