Information

I have created this thread specifically for new members to understand the current rules and regulations of our warning policy.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this thread; post below or send me a PM. I'll be more than happy to answer them for you.

Help Documents

For better understanding of the current rules listed in the Help Documents, click the image below or locate it on the navbar:



If a user is having trouble understanding site policy or disobeying them; simply redirect them with the famous help quote;
"We recommend you take the time to read the HF Help Documents section. The answer to your questions should be contained in there."

Below is the code for the above speech.

Code

[Help]

Note: Writing out the 'help' code doesn't apply to the 25 character limit, so be a little specific when appointing a user to the HD. It's always better for members to understand the current rules, instead of overlooking them.

Questions & Answers

Q: Where is the report button?
A: The report button can be found on the bottom right-hand side of the users' post/thread.



Q: What if the reason isn't on the drop down list?
A: Either contact a  staff member, send them a PM & provide them with the users' profile and the reasoning for reporting them or click on the "report" option as shown above and select "Other" to describe the issue.

Q: How do I report a members profile?
A: Find the most recent post, and select "Profile Violation" when clicking on report. You may also report it directly to a staff member if needed.

Nono, this is re-posted from Genuine. Full credit goes to him.
We just feel like it's needed to be kept up to date and have it stickied.

He's not active any longer.

Thanks though.

I actually didn't know much about the warning system, but this thread actually helped me understand it all. Thank you very much to you and Genuine.

Good good, great to hear. These threads are better than having it all in the Help Docs since details are updated here and there.

Regarding "Q: What if the reason isn't on the drop down list?"

Shouldn't they be using this option then?

I always use that when the reason isn't in the dropdown list.

Anything related to Discord is a 50% warning level, not sure what time period.

There's no option to give a +50 warning for me. It falls under:
"Advertising Competing Site (+25 points) - 6 Months"

Never seen a +50 tbh

A user where I talked to got a +50 warning level for advertising a discord username.

Riyu can verify.
