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.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I like the idea of 6, but I'm not sure about the "this is a final warning" text. I'd think that that would be in the text of the post. Maybe something like that, but without that text, for a warning, and then similar things that said "Suspension" and "Banning" in the Buffy font for those. (Are suspensions and bannings reported in-thread like that? I can't remember what was decided there.)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
2c looks effective to me, with the official looking stompy stamp and "Warning" very clearly and separately stated in distinctive font.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

oooh 6b, choose 6b.
I still see "endorsement" with the round stamps, even with the warning wording.
6b is very clear, non-silly, STOP NOW.

I like 2c best.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We should probably get to a poll/vote, with a "no preference" and "none of the above" option.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm preferring 1a and 6b.

How's that MARCIE testing going?
