Exclamation Warnings system change

Since the Warning System Mods program has been discontinued, I felt the Warning System itself needed to be modified to reflect this change.

The warning level to invoke a suspension with fine attached is now 125 points. The fine level has been lowered to $25.

Of course, only site moderators can use the warning system, and they also have the capability of invoking an immediate suspension if they feel the incident warrants it.

This may all change anyway when this site has been upgrade, which I am assuming should be in another couple of months when the newest version of vBulletin has been finalized and released as a supported product.

Just curious Rich. Since some people got points during the Mods Program, when the point system was higher, and when they may have been in some type of argument with the mod giving the points, was there any thought to wiping to slate clean?

That will likely happen during the upgrade as there probably isn't any easy way to convert the points. But for now, whatever it is, will remain. And for the record, a few members are already above the suspension level. I don't think they will be suspended automatically, but any new point certainly will cause that to happen.

FWIW, vBulletin has announced that 3.7 will go Gold within the next week.

See http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=267513.

Is the Excedrin bottle handy?

How bad of a pain is it to upgrade to a newer version of vb?

It depends on how many custom mods you have programmed into the older version. Nearly all of them need to be coded all over again since the internal structure of the code has changed quite a bit. I'm not expecting to get off cheap with this.......

Kelli,

There was a major change in the structure of vBulletin when 3.5 came out. Specifically, I refer to the addition of hooks and plugins. Prior to to that, all modifications were "hacks" of the basic code itself and usually involved changes to the core files.

Since 3.5 the upgrade process is generally simpler but still dependent on how many "hacked" core files one has. Also, edited templates often need to be reverted, meaning the modifications that one has installed will not work until those edits are redone.
