Why do I see a panel at the bottom of my profile panel on messages posted that says 'Warn Level'? I don't see it on any other member's posts. Mine's set at 0% but I'm not aware of having transgressed any forum rules. Can any admin please explain?
 
Each member can view only their own level. If it's at 0%, than means you haven't done anything wrong on the forum, and is the default setting for new members.

However, if you do break the rules your warn level will go up by 10% and you'll receive a PM from the staff. The higher you warn level, the worse consequences get if you continuously break the rules.
 
Phew! Thanks for the info, guys. Why do I suddenly feel that a whole load of guilt has been lifted off me? :P

what happens if you get a warn level of 100%?

I assume you get banned :P
 
If I remember right, you could get warned for posting your warn level, correct? I believe someone a while back had this issue, don't remember who though.

You warn level is your own personal business. You generally won't get warned, the post/topic will just be deleted.

Most likely those who were warned posted it multiple times, after a staff member had already removed it more than once.

If it's your own personal business then surely it should be your decision if you want to share it or not? I don't see any harm in sharing it if you want to.

Zetaboards don't have that feature. It's fine as it is.

It doesn't need a feature for you to type the warn level you have o.O
