The Warning System allows you to give warnings to your users. There are two items that you can configure for the warning system; warning types and warning levels.
[edit] Warning Types
Configuration: Warning Types
Warning Types are the warnings that can be issued when warning a user. For each warning type, you can configure the name, points to add, and the time of expiry. Staff can also issue custom warnings, setting these options at the time of warning.

Warning Levels are preset actions to occur when a user reaches a certain warning percentage. For any warning level, you can ban the user, suspend their posting privileges, or moderate all new posts for an amount of time you choose.
