rong Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 So have I but also a 0% before them, maybe they change colour as you misbehave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 They show if you have received any warnings from the site admin :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djohn Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Depends on which ones you mean. There are some squares the first one is green with - then 5 pink and 1 red with + next to it. These are for admin to place warnings if you step out of line P3 Each member of the forum can see only theirs except for staff who can see all of them. You also have some orange squares just above your member title and these will be different for each person depending on post made. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P;3 Posted July 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 They show if you have received any warnings from the site admin :( I am intrigued by my ones by the" warn ";however, I am sure the staff will let any of us know if we are not doing what we should be /expected from/of us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djohn Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 The warn squares are when admin feel its necessary to place a warning against a member of the forum. The member is informed before this happens and how severe a warning and how long it will stay on there for. Its something that this forum has very rarely had to do though and only staff and the member concerned will see the warning, all other members will not be able to see it. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P;3 Posted July 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 so presumably when we start to run out of dots we need to start to ....... like the sheepdog trials?; you start with 100 point and get points deducted for each mistake :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 I cannot see an answer to this on forum so maybe someone can enlighten me?I seem to have some orange blobs in my profile (next to the word "warn" by my avatar). can anyone tell me to what they relate? or am in in trouble?They are in accordance with your member level. Subscribers and Staff do not have them. If you reach a certain amount of posts, you get more squares.But, as Chris says, quality over quantity :D So have I but also a 0% before them, maybe they change colour as you misbehave.Yep. :D They change to a darker shade, as well as add a # underneath. (10%, 20%, 30% etc.)so presumably when we start to run out of dots we need to start to ....... like the sheepdog trials?; you start with 100 point and get points deducted for each mistake :DNot exactly.. You start with 0 a max of 50, and if you get 50... well lets just say you dont want to get 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P;3 Posted July 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 I"ll wait and see if anything changes ; then find out why :lol: (although I must confess I am still a bit bemused with it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djohn Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 (although I must confess I am still a bit bemused with it)Using words like 'bemused' is likely to get you a 20% warning. Please keep it simple so that the rest of us can understand what you mean! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P;3 Posted July 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 I think I now understand the "squares" thanks to DJ(I"ll do my best to keep them the correct colour ;) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
