should I worry?

Hmm, I don't seem to have any. Not that I can see anyway. Could have sworn I got one a while back. Maybe stop being a dick op? Not saying you are fwiw.
 
There's three tiers of warnings, that I understand

- No warnings. You won't have a section on your profile
- Notification warnings. These won't give you a section on your profile. They're more someone giving you a heads up that what you're doing is not working for the site.
- Actual warnings. These create the warning section, and count towards a ban. There doesn't seem to be a set rule on how many, and you can still be banned without warnings (try posting spoilers, for example)

That's very interesting. So a mod can give you a quick nudge without instituting proceedings.
 
I would if I were you. I have none. Ever since the bitches went off to reeeee this place has been awesome. Mods are super chill now and only intervene when people are legit acting stupid AF.
 
Huh, I didn't even know there were official warnings. Interesting. Where does that even show up on your profile page? Can a Mod give me a warning "for fun" just so I can see what I'm missing?

Or is this one of those Pandora's box moments where I should be happier not knowing?

they're super chill until you drop a few hard to swallow redpills about their fave game company

negative tags (like the "Report me for trolling - date") should be like a prison sentence, if you do your time and you behave they should be removed at some point.
 
I figured that as long as I stay out of music threads and pretend I don't even care about the war against xbox console wars I should be fine.

It is working I guess, joined about the same time as OP and look, no warnings!

Taking you at your word, and being somewhat familiar with your posts, they don't strike me as red pills.

They strike me as you fundamentally having an inability to accept the opinions of others, as many on Gaming Side do.

It's okay to like Nintendo. It's okay to like Microsoft. It's okay to like PS. It's okay to like Minecraft. It's okay to like cartoony games. It's okay to like whatever, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else, and brings you happiness and joy.

It's not that serious.

It's a game board full of enthusiasts that just want to have fun and talk about their favorite things. Sometimes, yes, criticism is a part of that, but reasoned criticism, that isn't unnecessarily hostile, troll-ish, and disruptive.

You may or may not like it, but this is the most honest, chill answer you're going to get. You probably will be permed soon, if something doesn't change. I would recommend just discussing the things you love, and not paying so much attention to the things you don't. Or at least learning to articulate that criticism in a way that, in my experience, isn't so unpleasant and drive-by.

it was you, right?

why is it ok to like all kinds of crap but not to like to dislike crap?

I got this more or less when I first started posting here. I definitely enjoy being a bit of a troll here and there, but I'd like to think that when I drop my guard, i can contribute to discussions quite well.

I'd be so bummed if I were banned here. Gaf is very unique as far as communities go these days, and i adore getting laugh reactions.

Tbh, i do it all for the laugh reactions.

There is a difference in disliking something and straight up trolling. I am a NIntendo and a PS fan, but i don't go into Xbox threads shitting on the stuff they like with memes and stuff.

Apparently eating the sandwich marked Evilore out of the Gaf fridge was a mistake.
 
Mean jack shit. Had a warning for something but some mod banned me for the same thing anyway without allowing the warning to take place.
