Personally I'm not in favour of overly colourful posts. (or edits)
It can direct too much attention to a small error that someone made.
If you decide to do that, as a matter of consistency I'd suggest you use the colour of the moderator group:
Shut up you
I can haz edit.
Code: Select all
Shut up you [color=#00aa00]I can haz edit[/color].[/color].
Me, I'd rather add a note to the end of the post like...
{watch your language - Gazz}
This doesn't stand out as much and doesn't
highlight every small infraction, distracting from the actual content of the thread - because then the infraction gets discussed...
If a FORMAL WARNING is issued, the user gets a PM with no punches pulled.
Behave. Or else.
There will be no public note of anything like that. That would only end up as a mud-slinging contest.
The forum also tracks "real" warnings. Do not think that there is such a thing as "the moderators have surely forgotten about it by now".
There is no "I" in Tea. That would be gross
