Allow me to refer to two paragraphs of the warnings section of MLK's Universal Site Rules:
[quote="Moka"]After 90 days of age, an official warning expires from your account. (It is possible to return to 0 warnings on your account after receiving an official warning.)
If you reach 3 official warnings, the staff will deactivate your account. We try our hardest not to give the third official warning, but you must work to improve your behavior just as we work to make it a safe environment for everyone.
[/quote]
There's a loophole here that would allow a user to spread out their bad behavior over a long enough time that they could accumulate well more than three warnings, and produce a lot of bad behavior, without actally getting banned. I'd like to suggest a warning cap. A number of warnings a user can recieve in total, since the creation of their account regardless of the amount of time involved, before being banned. For example, perhaps 10 warnings total would be the limit, or something. What do you guys think?

Frankly this is a non-issue. First of all, warnings are <supposed> to expire in this way, <allowing> members to stay on the forums. Second, if the staff ever feel that a member is being too disruptive to be allowed to stay on the forums, we have no problem banning them regardless of how many warnings they may have accumulated. Thanks for the suggestion.
