How to get your warning level down?


Recommended Posts

Perhaps he just gets a kick out of being respectful.

Yeah a few crybabies bitched till it was taken away, they didn't have enough sense to realize only they could see there warning level. I liked it myself.

Cody

Sorry to disagree, bangbang023...but if THAT is respectful then I should be an Adminstrator by now :rolleyes:

^ That's a 26 page thread in which we first were able to see our warnings, which it seems Redmak enabled at the suggestion of a member who is now banned.

It should be noted that the biggest opponent against the warnings on each post is the man I like to think of as the member most experienced in all things Neowin, a member who was one of the first 350 members of this place, who has been here since around the second month of this forums existence, who has in excess of twenty one thousand posts, and is also the top poster here at Neowin: Steven/xStainDx

Now i'm interested...  :blink: What is my warning level?

If you've never recieved a PM from a Mod, SMod or Admin, then yours is at 0%. They tell you when you've been warned and why.

Cody

From what I know of-I've gotten 2 PMs about my warning level being increased-What would it be at-If I've gotten 2?

I think they should tell us not only when we're warned but what % it carries. I wasn't aware that you didn't find out what % point the warning carried.

Cody

That'll learn ya.

But onto the pressing discussion at hand. Warning level's should be viewable to people who want them. The easiest way todo this is to create a topic saying that you can now view your warning level's in the following places yada yada yada if you wish to have this feature activated please PM a moderator/super moderator/admin etc.

Then the people who don't want it don't have it and the people who do, do.

Edit: I was just wandering. So it's against the rules for us to sign up and create a new account if we don't like our nickname but are unable to have it changed.

I have been here for quite a few years now, and believe mine is still at 0%, but it makes me think have I or haven't I. I respect this place, and the people who run it, stick to the rules, and you can count on that you will be fine.

Does a warning level even matter then? From what I gather in this thread, it's just for show lol.

585825854[/snapback]

it really means nothing in my opinion. especially since we can't even see our warning how is it any type of punishment so to speak.

i've been warned a few times, but i know my warning has been lowered atleast once. but that in no way changes how i act or say things on the forums.

regardless of your warning level the mods or admin will ban you whenever they see fit. so i think it's just a waste of time even bothering with them or caring what % you are at.

Correct.

No alternate accounts are allowed. Should you be disciplined with a restriction or ban, you are not allowed to open a new account to obtain freedom to post. Restrictions and bans are given for a reason, and usurping that ability by re-registering is not tolerated. If another account is opened, that account will be banned immediately, and the original account will be further penalized. Anyone who has warnings on their account are automatically excluded from changing their user name.

If you read what was posted about the suggestion the warning level will not be in every post, only in the members profile.

Either way I could care less if it was posted or if it was hidden.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaad lyle, didnt know you were like that  :whistle:.

well... you need to look at it from a mods perspective. me not being a mod.. results may vary LOL

there is a TUN of users.. and a small percentage are trouble makers. example, someone the other day, kept spamming his dumb free money threads. and they ended up banning the first user, and he made a new account, spammed again.

if you were a mod.. i dont think you'd want to warn the same person more then once. it is there job, and i respect there decision... but it's not easy reading threw 4,000,000 posts, and cleaning out the bad...

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.

    • All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.
