Warn

A Warn was a simple disciplinary action taken towards members if they committed a minor infraction. They would last for an arbitrary amount of time, though it was later standardized to last 3 months. The Invision board started with 5 warns per user; the loss of all warning points would constitute a temporary ban. Many felt this was too lax, and it was later shortened to 3 warns. The boards used the 3-heart system for a while, before behavioral issues began to surface at an alarming rate. The system was completely rewritten, and warns are no longer used. This new system uses temporary bans, the length of which depends on the particular infraction.

A description of how warns used to work before i joined would be nice -x
