Hmm...
I've just enabled a new feature that should help persuade everyone to not be an asshole. Those of you who have a high enough Trust rating to give you custom nameplates/titlebars/etc. will have those temporarily removed when you are given a warning above 0%.

That means if you see "Watched" or "Lite-Banned" under your avatar, your customization options will also be disabled for you (and everyone else will also be unable to see your customization).

EDIT: fixed because confusion. I've also added Nuka's idea. You'll now lose your prefix/bar color (temporarily) when warned.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
In other words, weather or not RC hits legendary, he'll never have a custom plate.

I don't know why I'm amused by this.

We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
Ah, that explains why some people had their stuff missing.
Interesting to see that you finally implemented this. Will ban/warning level be visible under people's avatars again too?

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.

So... If one person gets warned, everyone loses custom options?

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
You should create a default avatar of Big Brother's face whenever somebody gets above 50pc warning.

Nope, I said this in a thread earlier, but shitposters were using it as a badge of honour.
So Cheat hid it from view.

And this affects me how?
Actually he brings up a good point...it seems like this will only have an impact on higher tier members.
Non-custom titlebars are still visible and it doesn't effect the appearance of whatever rank they're at (Ascended/Heroic/Legendary/Mythic).

My suggestion would be to make people revert to the default titlebar that new members have. Just plain and black, only have their post count rank show. Until the ban/warning wears off, that is.

So Cheat hid it from view.
If it's combined with this, then people won't have to ask "oh did you mess up your custom colors/remove them?"

I know that people were proud of it before. But if it's handled differently, they shouldn't. Combined with this new feature, it might do the trick.

They were pestering mods to give them a warning level.
That's not far off sending in pointless reports.

I'm aware. Im saying it will be less attractive to get now that their customization options will be gone with it too.

I'm looking at you, Noelle.

So If someone fucks up we all get our custom titles taken away that's a bit unfair!
It wears off when the warning passes. So for most people it'll only last a day.
