Why not just have a regular vote on whether someone should be warned?
Ten people is not very many. What ten pals might find unforgivable thirty others might see as a goof.

We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

Edit: never mind, long post that I ended up figuring out as I typed it.
Don't you love it when that happens.
I got nothin' new.
Moved from B:
Do you really think we have ten-person cliques that tight around here? Ten people who would not only be that petty, but all at the same time towards the same person? I just don't see it happening.
Wolfram easily annoyed ten people with what turned out to be a style (as opposed to his intent) that didn't didn't bother a bunch of others.

If that happened, I'd be turning in my keys and leaving.
I don't think I have the vocabulary to explain how much that idea bugs me.
Dude, I just saw two of my fav people go at it in another thread. Which is kinda like seeing your parents fight, but it leads to my point:
You're not really going to have ten people lining up to blackball/force a warning on someone who hasn't done jack, because I can't see anyone finding ten people one's close enough to to pull that crap who all feel the same about person X, Y, or Z.

Yeah, but did anyone suggest warning him?
No.

We could be a VIP post away from such a scenario.

No, because it would have been a discussion.
OTOH, if it just meant getting nine people to agree with you it could too easily happen.

Highly freaking unlikely.
Given that we haven't had a VIP post in ages, interest in the shows will wane as it moves into re-runville, and the best-case scenario is we have ONE ME show on the air next season.
Trudy, the person requesting that a warning is issued has to provide proof (cite posts, etc) when making the request. How are 10 people going to fake that up?
