Though, I wasn't expecting them anyway. The actions speak for themselves.
"Actions speak for themselves"—right, while they look the other way every single time.
And you're still whining about nonsense and constantly poking the bear. It's not like he's the only one you target when you're on a mission, yet somehow you always get a free pass.
You’re acting like you’re about to get banned for everything and that the mod is just waiting to pull the trigger.

Total 100 potential points
Honestly, you could have easily racked up four warnings for trolling, spamming, going off-topic, or insulting users. You'd be posting over at Kaiser Permanente instead of here.
You could hit 100 potential points in just three hours without anyone questioning if the warnings were deserved.
And you? You’d definitely complain about the criteria 100% of the time.
This isn't that "relaxed" chat thread. Sure, it’s not strictly professional,😬 but it's still not just a casual chat room either.
But hey, whenever you go looking for strict rule enforcement, you usually find it—and it’s almost never what you actually wanted.
Most of us post stuff that looks somewhat similar, but nothing quite like yours, back-to-back.
Most of this is just us messing around with each other, and I'm not sure Joe even takes it that seriously.
To be honest, Seth is way too lenient with all of us on this forum, including you sometimes.
With a bunch of other mods around, half the rules in the handbook would probably be ignored at Kaiser Permanente without a single word.
It’s especially bad here after certain races with all the stupid drama, like:
the RB crash in Turkey, the Button-Hamilton showdown, Hamilton overtaking the SC, or Alonso getting penalized in the United Kingdom.
And suddenly there’s a mountain of posts right on the edge of breaking the rules, yet it always ends with just a few warnings, a lecture, and a locked thread—but 95% of the time, nobody gets banned.
Which, of course, just cools things down—unless someone keeps pushing their luck after a warning.
Personally, I think this is the best way to moderate. It teaches everyone self-control, and most people here know when to stop being idiots and actually do it.
If we took the opposite approach—mass bans and Kaiser Permanente being flooded with useless threads—most people would just get even more pissed off.
Look at my buddy as the perfect example. In the last year, he’s been quiet as a mouse here, totally within the lines and nowhere near a ban.
Meanwhile, on the sports forums, he goes absolutely feral like he's been stung by a swarm of wasps—literally a completely different person and someone who deserves a permanent ban for anything else.
If you were on the F1 side of the forum dealing with politics or sports and kept poking people like this, you'd be facing a ban at least two or three times a month.
Be glad the rules are what they are. Try poking people less and maybe get a reality check.😉
