Right now it just says "User Banned", but this presents a problem. I was lead
to believe that T-man was permanently banned, since that's sort of what "User
Banned" implies.
Also, having a thread that serves as a "ban list" seems really archaic. These
things should be built into the forum software whenever possible. I think it
would be ideal to include the ban length as well as a link to a public warn
log.
Come to think of it, do we even have public warn logs? I'm pretty sure we
don't. I think the warning system here is sort of broken, in that a warning
has absolutely no significance whatsoever. Maybe if warns and bans were made
public, we would all have an easier time being on the same page.
It would be nice to have all that built in and a duration could be useful so
people know what's going on with a suer.
As far a public warn logs, I don't really think we should have that. I could
see a lot of users using a member's warns against them or people treating them
as points of shame. It's not very conducive to helping people be better
members IMO.
