One could rightfully argue that if those in authority also didn't give infractions in every instance they were deserved, that the site would be a bit of a mess as well.
That's my concern, overall I don't see how this really improves the site. The mods currently temp ban whenever anybody steps out of line. Wouldn't this system just make it a longer process? It's going to take some rejiggering of the rules to provide the basis at which a temp ban may occur. It will read more like tax code than the simple rules that we have today.
Seems simple today. You disrespect or flame somebody=temp ban.
In the future, with our members, it will be like
1). I posted porn a week ago and got 5 demerits
2) I disrespected "insert racial group here" 28 days ago, so that comes off my record in 2 days.
3). I talked about piracy in a thread and got 3 demerits
So, if I want to called somebody a ****** in a thread, I have to wait 2 more days for my previous infraction to expire so that I don't get banned.
