I'm keeping my thoughts reserved until I've seen it in action for a while.

LOL jimmy you know what happens if you sit on the fence for too long

Members can't give infractions.

Perma banning isn't an option.

Looks like the 2 main concerns at this point... let me know of any others.

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.

Good point. Mods/admins need to predetermine what offense is worth what ban. Then go ahead and make that infraction do it. Not, linking porn is 5 points, 20 points for a 3 day ban. But, I'm sure this is already known...
