Issues with Warning Points?
Is there a problem with the WP system? Yes or no. Vote yes if you have even a slight problem with it, and vote no if you don't have any issues with it whatsoever.
And no, this is not an attack on the moderators and nor should it be closed, in my opinion. Just a necessary thread seeing as there are lots of complaints about WP's lately.

Definitely. Voted Yes. The amount of Blog Posts don't lie.
Although, I must say, I'm surprised I haven't gotten a visit from the always shady ATRL-o-matic from that Nicki 911 thread. A couple of mods seem to be really trying to better it, like Red. IMO.

Some mods are not fair at all. I swear I saw a specific mod(  ) kept throwing shades and flamebait like crazy, and yet it no use reporting him/her.

No. What's the problem with it? It would only be perfect if we have perfect mods and that's not possible but it's as good as it's gonna get

I really think that's not fair & I don't like it at all  I haven't had any problems, but some of the warnings I've seen people get are extremely unfair.

If you're talking about who I think you are, then I like him.  I like that he throws shade and doesn't get reported, I just wish everyone else could throw shade without getting reported. Shade is hilarious. And if someone throws shade, either clock and drag 'em or STFU, instead of running to the report button. It's not that serious at all.

I can say yes, though I don't even get in that much trouble on the site anymore and am losing all my remaining warning points this month and will have 0 on the 24th.  There are plenty of things on this site that get reported and warned that don't deserve it, there's a few unfair things in the rules, etc. I think that members should get a bit of a voice instead of having to be silenced, and then warned if we're not.

But imagine ATRL without reporting and WP's.

Actually you can do it in SYG and NHB, however it's extremely unfair when a mods can shade the artists they hates without get warning points, while they will quickly deliver points to those who shade their faves. (And again, this is direct to one specific mod)
The mods that just came back to Atrl are much better though, especially Kworb.

Definitely Yes. Warning points are given out unfairly everyday on this forum that are completely unfair. Certain members get warning points while others don't even if they do the same thing and are reported. Warning points can be given out even if the reason isn't one of the clearly stated reasons in the Warning Points thread. Apparently the amount of warning points handed out can change even though in the Warning Points thread says that, that particular "offense" is only worth 1 point if they tack the word "Very" or "Really" in front of a reason. Members can get reported for a Gif post which is completely ridiculous seeing as gifs were created in order to express feeling without using words. etc. etc....

@hOaNG_SE I definitely agree with that though.

Well when I say shade, I mean shade. I'm not talking about "Beyawncé is a stupid blah blah blah and she can blah blah blah for all I care." Of course that's getting reported.
ATRL needs the report button and the WPs, but not everything needs to be reported. Just because someone shaded your fav, doesn't mean it needs to be reported. People take things to seriously sometimes.

I love the mods. But the WP system is ridiculous.

I wish people were more like that and wouldn't report everything, even stuff that isn't report-worthy.

Every forum has its problems w mods and how they deal w things. It's not like dozens of people are banned every day and the mods are on some trigger-happy power trip.
So no, in my opinion. Even though I've gotten warning points I don't agree w.

I don't see anyone here who said Yes making any points for that outside of criticizing the mods for biased decisions but no one here seems to see anything wrong with the actual WP system. What's supposed to be wrong with it?

 That one mod is just.. ugh. Its fine to throw shade and all, but when that mod starts a war by the shade then people defend there artist and then that mod reports them all or bans them. Its just sad. How they became a mod is just

Did you catch the "shades?"
Mods can be reported, but they cannot be warned, therefore reporting them is useless. However, God knows some people love to try it. Mods are members here as well, they deserve to have some fun. Their job is not as easy as it may seem.
