Did RSC change their warning system?

One of my friends noticed that it looks like there's been an update
to the RSC forum software. I went over to his house to see this for
myself.

It appears that there's a new warning bar (like a damage bar in a
game), but a member only sees his warning bar and not anyone
else's. Also there's only text for banned members, no black icons
on them. Don't know if there are yellow or red waring icons attached
to posts anymore. If these are gone, it's a good change for RSC.

We also noticed another cool improvement, a little light avatar that
glows green if that member is presently online at RSC. There are
some other icons like ICQ or AIM (if I remember correctly).

Anyone here notice these or any other changes?

Hey, I'm not complaning, looks like a good thing. We checked again,
and they now have little icons for all the ways a member can receive
instant messages or emails (ICQ, Yahoo, MSN, AIM, ...).

The same friend who has the same IP as you?

Shhhhhh......he's an "invisible" friend.

Can't be, he was banned, remember?

I don't know if RSC changed because they wanted to, or if
it was just because of the new forum software they are using.
Either way, it's a better forum for it.

No one else here seems to care, so I'm not expecting any
reasonable replies here.

AHAHAHA, taken from an online cache of the rules before the upgrade:
**All warnings will be public unless it is deemed that a PM or other private
method would be more suitable for an infraction.**

Whether or not that'll change, I don't know. You don't think you live in a
world with no rules and no consequences for your actions, do you?

Nope, I didn't notice new icons. I've seen those for a loooooooooong time
now.....

As long as it's documented (unlike before), that's OK too.

I for one welcome our new racingsim website overlords.
