2 Strikes

[Axxe_Man]

I was wondering if there was a way to "start over" because I don't want to say or do something on accident and get me banned. I mean cuz the two strikes I made weren't part of the rules so I don't know what I did wrong. Thanks for the help :)

They are part of the rules, actually. You posting in the girls puberty section is against the rules, as stated in...Well. The rules.

Alright. Now that we've cleared that up...

You only got warnings. Your strikes actually start when you begin getting Infracted. You can't start over, but infractions will expire after a certain amount of time. Just read the rules and regulations listed here:

Rules (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/faq.php)

And follow them. If you do so then you won't have to be afraid of being banned.

Excuses don't excuse anything.

And really? They threatened a ban on warnings? Oh mods, what're you doing these days?

Excuses are invalid if you broke the rules.

If you get three or more infractions, that is automatically a temporary ban (frozen), which usually lasts 7 days (well, it depends on what you did)

Don't worry about it, kiddo. Just use common sense. It's pretty hard to 'accidentally' get banned on this site- Believe me, I've tried.

Just do your best to follow the rules next time. What's done is done, most people forget after a while anyway if you continue your good behaviour. I remember the first time I got in trouble(with good reason) and I freaked out a bit as well. Not because I was scared of being banned, I just overreact and think too much. Of course, I didn't die or anything like that. (Thanks, Donkey. Again)

Read the rules. They're good for you. Excuses are non-existant when it comes to rules and law. Would you excuse someone who said "Oh, I accidentally took a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. I have an excuse. He was pissing me off"?

Those were just unofficial warnings, anyways.
They don't show up as official warnings.
The protocol we use is:
Unofficial warning(Just a PM) > Yellow card(official warning) > Red card(infraction) > Frozen > Ban
and of course that can change depending on severity.
