But I guess that if you seriously/repeatedly break forum rules, admins can give warnings to other users?
That way, they can keep track of how bad someone is xD

Yesh, but I don't think they give you a warning level (at least it hasn't happened before) ^

it looks like some feature of pro boards that the admins dont use but instead just play with for the heck of it. like i have seen some admins warning level set to 69 which i would assume is a joke like when my boss set the pharmacy counter thing to 69 and declared it broken so it wouldn't change. lasted nearly a month till the district manager noticed and fliped SHIRT over it.. so yeah probably a usless perk the admins have.

With experience as I global moderator, I can confirm that it is used as a measure of... Well... Warnings. It starts at 0%. When someone breaks a rule/rules, staffers have the option to increase the gauge depending on severity. When the warn level gets to 100%, it's sometimes used as an "Ok, last chance", but it's more commonly used as a "You're banned now, gtfo", at which they ban them.
Of course our admins use a more traditional system of verbal warns and just screw around with the warning level for teh lulz.

We have started to use the warning level feature. You will see it next to some admins' names because they're just using it for fun, but non-admins can only see their own warning level, which is why you have never seen anyone else with a warning level.
The warning level is a number between 0 and 100, starting at 0. We increase the number when a user commits forum offences like spamming. The value we increase the warning level by is determined by the severity of the offence. When the warning level reaches 100, we take actions as we see fit, whatever they may be. The more serious your offences, the quicker you will reach warning level 100.

Every 7 days, if a user's warning level has not been increased during the last 7 days, the warning level is reduced by 10.

Where can we see our warning level? It is shown by all of your posts and on your profile page. (Unless you have a warning level of 0, in which case nothing is shown).
