Only for a few weeks and then turned off again. Any mods put on ignore then are still on ignore now.

Can any kind mod with access to the stats please let us know the total percentage ratio of forum Groans (given) that Tom is responsible for since he first joined?  | | This user would like to thank Chuff for this useful post: | | | This user groans at Chuff for this post: | |

Pretty sure EB enacted it at the request of another member, member left, and it got turned off. So yeah, you were a mod when it happened.

Do the infractions also offer the chance of removing a few thousand points of reputation?

Received my first ever infraction this morning. Fair enough; if you read my post in a certain way, it could come across as offensive.
What I found odd though was that the same post was deleted by 2 separate mods. No infraction from the first mod but 4 hours later, the post was again deleted by a 2nd mod and an infraction was given. How's that work? How does something get doubly deleted.

| | | | | The first mod hasn't got round to using the infractions yet, but the second one thought one was warranted, so had to un- then re-delete your post in order to apply it. Posts are never permanently deleted by us, so they're still there for mods and admins to see.

ETA:
Just to clarify, I'm referring to posts like this, which the poster keeps downplaying defending.
