You only get one before you get suspended. It's "stop right now, or else."
Okay. I misunderstood. Forget my previous post, please.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
OK, all the attempts at Doblerizing have gone before, in the "work it out" phase. If that is the case, then more stern rather than less -- less whimsy, that is. I'll try some degrees of stern then. I don't think any of the current crop are particulalry stern.

Quicksand warning? Quagmire, from which it is rapidly becoming more difficult to extricate yourself? Warning: Danger Will Robinson.

I need a new tagline.. submissions are accepted.
I really like 1b and 6. (just had to chime in, they all look good)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have a question: are we looking for something to go with any official admin post, or just the official warning? Because if it's the first, I like the stamp, just without the word "warning."

Still like four best, but I like six too. The stamp - for some reason it looks more to me like a 'seal of approval' stamp than a 'stop that right now.' I know that in context it'll be clear, but the image itself isn't, I don't know, threatening enough for me.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I just realized that the word "warning" is unclear since the image would be used for all three steps of Warning/Suspension/Banning. I still like 2a but how about replacing "Official Stompy Warning" with "Official Stompy Action"?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
So far it looks like just for the warning, Jesse. Regularly stompy posts happen (or can happen) under the admin id, so there's some attention-getting just by that fact, I presume.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
All we're really looking for is a simple way to let the person getting the warning know that it's official, and the person issuing it has the authority to do it.
