They're on your profile page, you'll know if you get infractions as you get a private message also. If you're still confused PM a mod as only mods and you can see the infractions - but they're hard to miss on your own profile.
6 points doesnt expire 6 weeks later by the way!xx
There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.
Each point equals a week in length. So if you get 6 points they expire in 6 weeks.

Soon... Now will be then...Today will be yesterday... Present will be past...And thought will be memory... So...Live for the future! Make your future how you want it!
I think it's confusing because the rules say this:
Quote:
each member has 9 points to start with
But that isn't true. Each member has 0 points to start with and have the capacity to gain up to 9 before a ban is issued.

yeah soph that means they have 9 'free points' to play with, before a ban. so you can get up to nine.

i've never got the points system from when v3 begun i always though the whole 6 point 6 weeks expire gets knocked down a point each week.
never understood the 9 free points. so i just gave up i've got no points now yay. a warning but that means sod all to me. I had my reasons so i'll stick to them. I just "nod and agree now" with points.

Reason: If you have a problem with your infractions please take it up with the moderators.

It also makes it sound like when you first register you have 9 points to play with before you get a ban.
But its everytime you get reset back to 0 points.
The point system has always confused me and the rules don't make it clear at all. If we have points to play with we could do something worth 9 points and nothing happens that just seems odd to me. Surely if you do something that bad then the points won't just disappear?
Yeah but you get 9 points to play with so posting porn is 9 points and nothing will happen as you are using your free points and you have none left do you then need to build up another 9 from rule breaking to get the day ban? as that is what i get from reading the rules.
were actually having a look at the points system right now,so watch out for a thread about it :) xx
