Yeah but the thing about this site is sometimes (in my case every time) you think you're following the rules and then you get ambushed by a warning message completely left-of-field and you're left thinking "wtf? Really?!
Really?!" Like all those examples you gave are understandably warnable, so fair enough if they're on 9 points and post something graphic or incredibly cruel towards another member. They deserve to get kicked out for that. But what I'm asking is can you see if they're on 9 points if you're about to give them a warning point and kick them out for a month for something as trivial as saying "Let me not. I don't need the points." for being off-topic? If it's something trivial, can you see if they're on 9 points so you can just give them a reminder?
Or even a nickname. Like yeah, we're all aware that they're against the rules. But is it really worth exiling someone from the community for a month for saying "Lady Godga" when they probably really enjoy ATRL? It just seems really mean-spirited to banish them for something that's, quite frankly, hurting absolutely no one...
