Details Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Warning people makes them un-happy. If people are un-happy they may flame. Flames mean more warns are given out. This is not the best way of making a happy forum. I went through the IPB language files and changed "warn" to "praise" (along with a few other tweaks). When people are good, you praise them (increase there warn level). I find kind praise is much better than nasty warnings. In some forums, warn may be better. In some, praise may be better. Which-ever suits a forum best. Suggestion: Give IPB admins the option to use the system for warning or for praising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arts&Faith Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 This *could* be accomplished if the warning system went below zero, allowing both praising and warning, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
