Nah - you just get a couple of points for a week or so. 5 points and you are on the naughty step and can't post until some of your points have expired.
What I don't understand is how long each infraction lasts for?
The Obama thread was just silly. Just proves that these days you can't be honest and call a spade a spade

Infractors are the same sort of people as those who have a ruck with someone they'll go out at night and key their cars rather than have it out face to face! Cowards is what I'd call them.
No spineless cowards to be exact!

Infractions are a complete waste of time and serve no useful purpose anyway. What happens, you post up something offensive, you receive an infraction, you do it a few more times, you get banned. What do you do next?

I think I was probably infracted by someone of low intellect or achievement without a full grasp of the English Language.
From Wikipedia
To "call a spade a spade" is to speak honestly and directly about a topic, specifically topics that others may avoid speaking about due to their sensitivity or embarrassing nature. Brewer’s Dictionary of Phrase and Fable (1913) defines it as
“To be outspoken, blunt, even to the point of rudeness; to call things by their proper names without any “beating about the bush”.
==============
I do like the irony of "beating about the bush" !!! dl

The infraction system would probably work if it wasn't abused by a small minority of idiots who use the anonymity of the system to set people off against each other.
