How do you know if you get a warning? Is there a flag on the top of the forums or a PM or something?

Not entirely certain, used to be they displayed it publicly, as well as had a section in your profile, however, a quick search i cannot find it anywhere.

You'll receive a PM from the staff member who issued the warning. Your warning level is shown in your profile, or at least it used to be.

Yeah, I thought this may be the case. I'll raise this issue with the staff.

You probably have this setting disabled:
Allow all other non-protected groups to see their own warn level and reasons

Switching it to "Yes" will let members see their own warn log on the same places mods do.
If you still want to hide warns for normal members in posts, you can do a simple skin edit in "userInfoPane" (under global templates):

Find (somewhere on the bottom):
<if test="authorwarn:|:$author['warn_percent'] !== NULL"> 

Replace with something like:
<if test="authorwarn:|:$author['warn_percent'] !== NULL && $this->memberData['is_mod']">
