It appears I received a warning for my post in Cheshire's 1 Year thread. http://www.d2sector.net/forums/showthread.php?p=224216. Anyway, I was apparantly warned for making a joke about something that was said. More specifically I made a joke about a grammatical error. I received two warning points? For making a joke? It says I was off topic and yeah I was but I wasn't exactly hijacking the thread to talk about grammar was I? I made a comment about somebody else's comment, is that not allowed anymore? Also no mod told me I had received a warning I found this out when I looked at the top of one of my posts and it said "View your warnings"

I ask if that post was so far off topic that it really deserved someone clicking that little warning button instead of saying "Hey, let's get back on topic." Or atleast I ask that mods start telling people when they've been warned.

[Edit] Would also like to know if the other people who were off topic were warned.

I don't think you should be warned from joking about someone's grammar, other people do it all of the time in threads, and they don't get into trouble..

That's exactly why he made the thread Reaper... and Spoon I think the insurance (http://server4.103092804.com/Release3/linkredirect.php?h=40206,464846,1115325517) part is what got you off topic.
There's a Hazard sign at top right corner of it. That's the part alright.

But then again so did Blindspot and Foog so... maybe let mod explain it more.

sec, I'll tell you who warned you and why.

Hmmm it appears the warning was either removed or it has expired, so I cant tell you issued it, but apparently they changed their mind.

Chesh removed the warning. Still would like to know why I was the only one warned for that after so many people have done the same thing.
