    Infractions
    What does it mean on someones profile when it says "Infraction 1/0" ? What so the numbers mean?

    The first digit indicates the number of zero-point warnings a person has received. The second digit indicates the number of full-point infractions they have received. And a third digit will indicate the total number of infraction points they have accumulated.

    "1/2 (12)" would mean they've had one warning, and two infractions totaling 12 points.

    If there are no such numbers under someone's avatar and info, then they have no current warnings/infractions at all.

    Soooo... sorry, learning a new word here... (I'm actually a bit of a grammar snob, so I'm a little embarrassed to have to ask) Infractions are bad? By the way, I love your fuzzy little kitty picture. Little kitties always make me grin like an idiot.

    LOL...thanks.

    Yes, you earn an infraction for breaking the rules of the site. Using inappropriate language or trying to buy/sell stuff in the open forums are the most commonly given, but any broken rule or truly disruptive behavior may earn infractions.
